  1. Quick update to thread, I fitted one of those video mods from Turkey
  2. Mine arrived today plays really nice! For some reason I think the picture quality looks better than the older games.
  3. I'm big fan of the space shuttle game on the 2600, has anyone tried the intellivision game that's similar? Is it even in a playable state?
  4. That looks like the one I did try another rf cable I had and the result was just the same. It's odd because some games have a better picture than others.
  5. Just a few pics. The screen not really doing the inty justice My intellivoice turned up too, B-17 is great to play but the speech on Space Spartans is just awesome. It's like being in the Last Starfighter or Battle Beyond the Stars
  6. Will do, I'll take pics of the current cable and the intelli Many thanks!
  7. I could try and get a more high quality version. That picture you originally posted, looked like it might of worked if the pointed end went into the intelli and the bnc is on the outside? I'll still have to change it again at the tv end though. Just to add, the intellivision side is actually a phono socket. So it's phono to male rf.
  8. I'll have a look this evening and get back to you I think it would be a 1591. Sadly it didn't come with a manual to explain the sound adjusting screw.
  9. On the bottom of my pal machine is a hole just big enough for a screwdriver, which leads to a plastic adjusting screen and its marked SOUND CONTROL
  10. I don't remember seeing a switch but I saw something marked SOUND which looked more like an adjustment. I'll have another look tonight. Do you have a picture of that adapter? Just to add, we don't use coax over here, it would be rf to rf, one side has the circle within a circle, the other has male bit with the prongs on the outside. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TV_aerial_plug#Belling-Lee
  11. Is it worth (or easy enough) to do a component mod? I had to use an old video recorder to act as the tuner for the intellivision and even then the picture is pretty ropey.
  12. Thanks for the link. I'm familar with some games having read about them in old fanzines and magazine articles. Utopia(one I'd read about some years back) is now on the way, and a few others
  13. Cheers for the welcome everyone So far I've got the following games: Space Spartans, B17 bomber, Tron Deadly Discs, Armour battle, Demon Attack, Space battle, Burger time, Star Strike, Dungeons and Dragons 1 Most have manuals and at least one overlay. Some have white cart intrays and one has a UK leafet for buying new overlays from mattel uk. 75p for a pair
  14. Just got my first Intellivision this week as a little Christmas present for myself. I'm amazed about how much UK based stuff is about. I bought my system with with 9 games included and I have a voicebox on the way too for B-17 Does Truckin' work ok on a pal machine? I don't think it was released over here sadly. It was one of the games I wanted the Intellivision for.

  16. I think it was part made by Microsoft so at the moment it's an exclusive on 360 and xbox one. No idea if it will appear anywhere else after the initial release period?
  17. I watched it last night on the xbox. It was a good watch really, well made and entertaining. My gf enjoyed it too and she only knew a tiny bit about the story.
  18. Nice buy! I love these, just a shame the postage is lot to bring them over I did see one at the North East Retro Gaming show last weekend so there are some in europe kicking about
  19. Hello there, I'm having the same problem with the all in one modulator. Do you have any more details or photos please?
