Rowsdower70 Posted September 30, 2016 Report Posted September 30, 2016 So I have offered to bring my INTV III to the Expo to set up for people to play on. I will need to provide a nice mix of games.I have a few that must be there (BurgerTime, Astrosmash, Tron Deadly Discs, AD&D) but I'd love to hear input of what you would like to choose from if you sat down to play an Intellivision.Keeping in mind it is an Arcade expo, and also trying to keep it mostly 1 player games. What would you recommend!? "For you - Rowsdower from the 70 - have been appointed Omnivisioner of the Game Grid." ~ Atari Adventure Square
RickR Posted September 30, 2016 Report Posted September 30, 2016 I think you have a nice list there. Stick to stuff that has a low learning curve. If you have any Atarisoft games, I'd add those. I'd really suggest keeping a very limited number of carts out...and keep your eye on them! Sticky fingers.
Rowsdower70 Posted September 30, 2016 Author Report Posted September 30, 2016 I have Centipede I could bring, Defender is pricey so I'm not sticking that one out there.I thought about Ladybug and Venture also, they are probably the two best coleco titles.Maybe Demon Attack as well.(we will be putting a "property of" sticker on them for whatever good it will do) "For you - Rowsdower from the 70 - have been appointed Omnivisioner of the Game Grid." ~ Atari Adventure Square
jmjustin6 Posted September 30, 2016 Report Posted September 30, 2016 Pitfall, space armada, space spartan, and not sure if you want to put that rare of a game out there but worm whomper
Rowsdower70 Posted September 30, 2016 Author Report Posted September 30, 2016 Pitfall, space armada, space spartan, and not sure if you want to put that rare of a game out there but worm whomper Oh hell no I'm not bringing Worm Whomper, and I dont think I'll be bringing my Intellivoice module, but Space Armada is good one. Pitfall! will be covered by one of the Ataris that Darrell Spice Jr will be bringing. "For you - Rowsdower from the 70 - have been appointed Omnivisioner of the Game Grid." ~ Atari Adventure Square

chas10e Posted September 30, 2016 Report Posted September 30, 2016 Lock N' Chase is a solid arcade port on the INTV the voice modules are cheap enough I would suppose as to avoid theft & might get some attention ... anything have a good "attract mode" ?
Rowsdower70 Posted September 30, 2016 Author Report Posted September 30, 2016 Simple Classics! Astrosmash Masters of The Universe Night Stalker Shark Shark Snafu Spiker! Masters of the Universe is a great call. Shark Shark if my extra copy comes in is doable. Thanks for the suggestions! BTW NSG, if you want to donate your copy of Spiker!

Atari 5200 Guy Posted September 30, 2016 Report Posted September 30, 2016 I agree with all of the above titles including Snafu. I would throw in Lock N Chase and Beauty and the Beast as well. It was the reason I picked up an INTV to begin with. How soon is the event?

The consoles aren't set up near the vendors, and its an arcade expo so I really doubt the Intellivoice will win over the arcade cabs and pins.

Atari 5200 Guy Posted October 1, 2016 Report Posted October 1, 2016 I have seen the INTV's version of Atlantis. While the 2600 port is my favorite I did like how the INTV's version changed between day and night. So...if you have it...maybe include Atlantis. Nova Blast was a really neat game as well but I never could find that one. I only played it on emulation. So...if you have them I would bring Atlantis and Nova Blast, too. They might get a bit lonely if left them behind.

Rowsdower70 Posted October 1, 2016 Author Report Posted October 1, 2016 I want to keep it at around 10 games. 1. Astrosmash 2. Lock n' Chase 3. AD&D 4. Tron Deadly Discs5. Night Stalker 6. He-Man 7. Burger Time8. Demon Attack (in lieu of Atlantis, I think this one is easier to sit down and play)9. Snafu 10. LadybugI may bring Beauty & the Beast too, who knows.The plan right now is the Mrs. is going to laminate a couple of front/back pages showing the overlays.
