Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives for INTV. Third in the Burger Time series exclusive. You can't pepper Guy Fieri because he wears shades.

Saw those two on Ebay, thanks. Very steep prices for the condition, especially compared to what similar condition CIB Diner was being sold for the last two months on there.

I'm looking to use the last of my Christmas money on picking up an in-box Diner (does not have to be in great condition). Anyone willing to part with one? I know this should post to the marketplace, but I haven't had much luck posting there compared to the excellent experiences I've had on this forum. Thank you.

Very cool of you. Please tell me you're also a Juventus fan.

Great story. This community is truly special. Have a great time playing those games over the holiday season.

Thanks for moving my pic to the correct thread DZ. Amazing some of the scores on there.

Tip of the day: by the third beer, your nerves are settled thus providing the best opportunities for a high score. The snowman's howl, at first fearful, becomes a tuneful croon setting you along on your merry way.

After a busy couple of weeks, I'm finally able to fire up Christmas Carol in my humble game room. Got a four pack of Sip of Sunshine on deck and the old school multi color Christmas tree lights on. Can't wait.

No, but that that black and red cart label is awesome.

I am aware that this is the Intellivision forum, but there are so many good people on here that I have to ask. I'm looking for a Vectrex system if anyone is looking to sell. I'd rather give my money to someone here I trust than Ebay. If this is an issue, being an INTV forum and all, I'll gladly delete the thread. Thanks for the consideration.

After many emails to many different email addresses there, I finally got my set. I got mine about four months late and others on here who ordered after I did, received their's much sooner. Don't know how they organize their orders, but I feel lucky that I got mine finally.

Looking for a working Vectrex system without any issues. Does not have to be in box or with manuals, but needs the controller. Thank you.

Is $60 too much for Diner with a beat up box and no manual? I'm getting back into collecting where I left off a few months ago, but it seems prices continue to climb.

I didn't think to look and threw out the mailer. I never got an email or anything saying it was shipped. I sent all of their email addresses an email forwarding my PayPal payment. Their website said "sold out" and it really pissed me off since I ordered mine December 1st and others who ordered later got their's. Much happier now.

Completed shocked...I finally got my overlays in the mail last Friday!

What a joke. I ordered mine on December 1st and got nothing. I gave them the benefit of the doubt for months, received a confirmation email in March, and got screwed. Unacceptable business practice. Some people even had missing overlays in their sets. Pathetic.

I ordered my overlay set on December 1, 2014 and have still not received it. I just sent another email today with my PayPal confirmation.

That's awesome. If you could just replace that T-shirt with a Van Halen one...

Congratulations! Awesome accomplishment for an awesome member who helped me kick start my Intellivision collection a couple of years ago.

I sent them another email just now. I placed my order in December and haven't heard from them since the end of January confirming they had my order.

Well that's good to hear. I also ordered in December and have not received a shipping notification. I received a couple of random emails from them a couple of months ago once again confirming my order, but that's it.

Craig's list was good a few years ago, but like tep said it's basically now filled with Ebayers who don't want to pay the fees.

For arcade games, I'll always go to MAME as kiwilove mentioned. In the 80s and even 90s, all console versions of great arcade games were cut down sacrificing audio, visuals, options, and speed (to name a few). Unless I have real nostalgia for arcade ports from playing them as a kid, I go with MAME all the way. I have a bare bones old Neo Geo cab, a tank stick, and an old desk top inside that does the trick for me. That said, the 5200 is my favorite Atari system. The analog controllers make it unique and the trak ball is awesome. Even if they are not arcade perfect, Robotron and Space Dungeon on the coupler with two working analog sticks is a unique gaming experience. Much like the Intelllivision, I enjoy the system games over the arcade ports. Gremlins, Pitfall II, and Rescue on Fractalus are outstanding. Additionally, I just got a MyIDE II from Atarimax to expand my experience on the XEGS since I unfortunately never had a computer growing up until an IBM back in 1993. I look forward to playing the outstanding 8-bit library, but I feel I'll never tire of the unique experience of the 5200. So unless you're severely running out of space or need money, I don't see why anyone would sell their 5200.

Awesome of you BBWW.
