Intellivision:

  • B-17 Bomber
  • BurgerTime
  • Bomb Squad
  • Dracula

and of course,

  • Christmas Carol

Although, to be honest, it's mostly Christmas Carol. :)

 

Atari:

  • Stay Frosty
  • Stay Frosty 2
  • Yar's Revenge

That's all I break out the System Changer for.


ColecoVision:

  • None

I dabble here and there with some games, but honestly, I seldom bring out the unit -- not when I can play Intellivision. ;)

I could hardly do a top 10 for the Intellivision... So I will just try the other 2.

 

Atari. This is hard also.  But a top 5 is easier than a 5 worst....  LOL

1. Enduro

2. Circus Atari

3. Ice Hockey. My friend David was a master at this game!  It was fun trying to scrape a win over him now and then.  But that is where MLB evened things out.

4. Dark Caverns

5. Spider Fighter

At least one of them is an Atari Game LOL   But I had a few others I liked.  Adventure, Maze Craze, Pitfall and Pitfall II..  I'd have to dig out the 2600 stuff... But I think CBS made 1 or 2 I liked as well.

 

Colecovision

1. Donkey Kong.  As bad as the 4 sprites on a row issue was.. It was my first game for the CV and it got a lot of love.  Plus it was still hot in the Arcade.  I also like some of the bugs!

2. Lady Bug.  I will still play this one a few times a year and like it better then the arcade version.

3. Venture.  Played this a lot and it required a lot of angled shooting and the controller had the notches for the stick to fall in nicely.  I don't know if new ones did, but my original controllers did.  Fire buttons failed too quickly. :(

4. Zaxxon.  I didn't notice how BAD the scrolling was until I tried this game again recently.  But BITD, I put many hours into this game.

5. Carnival.  What can I say, I keep shooting bears and no one gets hurt!  LOL   Best feature.... You can turn off the music.  I like the song, but not for an hour!

 

I am hard pressed to come up with more game I love for the CV.  But some the Team Pixel Boy Puzzle games are very good. I missed out on most of the OPCODE stuff.  But they look great too. 

I know some really impressive "home brew" releases have been made.  I am impressed.  I just don't like a lot of these games.  It is a style more than quality thing.

 

I do have a bunch of SGM games.  Anyone want to buy them?  I just haven't played them.  Should go to a loving home.

Konami’s Ping Pong -- Looks good and I loved the arcade version.  But this is an Opcode game I missed :(   Track and Field looks good too.  These are my style of game!

 

Like me.. 2600 and was mostly Activision games.  I liked River Raid on the 2600, but I liked it better on other systems.  Keystone Kapers or Capers? was very good as well.

I think the rom for Ping Pong is available... Track and Field is great too.

 

For the 2600 list I stuck with classics, and certainly Activision ruled... but I’m sure there are nice homebrews out there.

 

Also on the Inty I haven’t listed unreleased titles, but Super Mario in its current state would already qualify as a top game...

I did not know Thexder was on Colecovision.  Very cool.  
 

I still have a functioning Mac Plus with a floppy emulator so I can play Thexder. 

Thexder on Colecovision is an MSX port and requires the OpcodeSGM sound chip.
