ZippyRedPlumber Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 (edited) I've got a question for you. How many of you use the System changer to play 2600 games? Edited August 10, 2021 by ZippyRedPlumber 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zendocon Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 I just might if I had one. That wasn't something I was ever interested in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolfy62 Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 I have a system changer,but I never use it. I do have an Atari 2600 and various flashback units but I dont use those either. I basically stick to Intellivision games for the most part! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
voltron Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 I have a system changer and a box of atari games I got with it, but I never used, other than to check that the system changer still functioned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+intellivotion Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 no, I don't use it since it requires NTSC version of Atari 2600 games and NTSC tv and I have only PAL games in my humble Atari 2600 collection. And also my tv is PAL. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+JasonlikesINTV Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 I have yet to drive into the 2600. I probably have around 120 games, but have only played around 10. I like Megamania ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+DZ-Jay Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 (edited) I use it to play Stay Frosty and Stay Frosty 2 — some of my favorite Christmas-themed games. I play them during Christmas Time. dZ. Edited August 10, 2021 by DZ-Jay 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+stupus Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 No, the intellivisions seem much more prone to fail while i have never had a 2600 go out. So dont want to use up my intys playing 2600 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Gunoz Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 Tested it years back when I first got it, been sitting in the attic ever since. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrekMD Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 Don't have a System Changer, so I can't play 2600 on my Inty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+sramirez2008 Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 I have one and have been known to use it on occasion. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinjinhawke Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 I have played on mine quite often but I now have the Atari Flashback X with the Nexus mod with every Atari game ever in crisp HDMI video which makes playing on the System Changer less desirable but sometime I do it just because. I even have almost 40 carts for it. I don't own an actual real Atari 2600. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it's cool and with the Nexus mod I have it loaded with many 1 button games from all the retro consoles including Intellivision. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mianrtcv Posted August 11, 2021 Share Posted August 11, 2021 I have the unit. I have never even tested it. No reason. I just use my Atari. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+cmart604 Posted August 11, 2021 Share Posted August 11, 2021 Sadly, mine just sit there looking all sexy like in their boxes on a shelf. Having said that I do own a few 2600’s and quite a few games if I get an Atari hankering. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rickster8 Posted August 11, 2021 Share Posted August 11, 2021 I see many InTV brotherhood members on this thread... ? Please come over to the Intellivision High Scoring Club for some friendly gaming competition. This week we are playing Bomb Squad / Space Hawk and Space Gunner. All you need is a screen print of your final score.... https://atariage.com/forums/forum/128-intellivision-high-score-club/ Hope to see you there ? Cheers! ? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
First Spear Posted August 11, 2021 Share Posted August 11, 2021 Very rarely I play it but there are some games TV at don't have Intellivision equivalents (yet). I got reworked 260 joysticks from Best Electronics, highly recommend them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1980gamer Posted August 11, 2021 Share Posted August 11, 2021 used to play on the system changer WAY BACK WHEN... But to be honest, outside of a few activision games and E.T. not a lot to love these days. Not saying in the late 70's early 80's I didn't put in a few hours! Warlords, Breakout, Space Invaders (fried of course) I liked Ice Hockey and Boxing better than the Intellivision versions. All the kids in the area had the VCS, so it was nice to trade games. Not so easy on the Intellivision. Oh, liked pinball until I got the Intellivision version and like that more. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
