Control Issues

My stuff arrived today too.  THANK YOU STORMSURGE!!  Here's a pic, including Creep's falsies.
 
 

Just a thought about the extra expansion port...
 
could it be a spot for some kind of memory cartridge to save games and such?

Lock 'N' Chase is really pretty fun.  Time before last when I got out the Inty, it's the one that really tore up my thumb.

Thought this was kinda fun...  someone on another site linked this magazine scan...  check out page 11.  It's that boxed Alien game!

I can not believe I forgot to post these. My buddy ColecoJoe hooked me up with these back in March. I have a few more on their way, I will post them with updated collection numbers!
 

And 👇 these 👇 fron the almighty @nosweargamer also in March.
 

Yep, never played it myself.  But recently got a rom pack and it seems to be working on my emulator.  Will have to hook up a controller and check it out.  

I mean, it may serve some other purpose, but I didn't think about it until earlier this week when I was putting a game in and realised I could grab it with my fingers and use it as leverage to push the cart into the slot.  I usually had my left hand on the left side of the console and pushing the cart in with my right hand.  This changes everything!  lol

Something I just realised earlier this week while playing some Blackjack...  there's a little indentation under the side of the Intellivision you can grab to put carts in easier.  lol... usually just used two hands.

Nothing new... but took a pic for Twitter earlier and figured I'd throw it in here...  😃

The first round of shipments should be on the ferry this afternoon.
Apologies in advance for any dog fur on or in the boxes.
I will work on getting the rest sent out tomorrow.
I still need an address from @Mr Toon & @Willie!
I'll send a PM with the tracking #. If you didn't get one today, you should get it tomorrow.

I' not very good at this one but I should be able to participate!

Never played it and don't own it.

@Atari Creep , Blue Lightning is more of an arcade style flight game than a flight sim.  Think Afterburner (arcade) or Top Gun (NES). It is a decent handheld game and a very good early Lynx game. 
Blue Lightning was so well regarded that Atari remade the game six years later on the Jaguar CD. I actually really like that version but it has mixed reviews.  
I hope you enjoy Blue Lightning on the Lynx and post some impressions in a video! 

I have never played this one. Not great at flight games but this should be fun!
