  1. I've always just ignored these and probably will for quite some time due to price. What is anyone's opinion on any of the home brew games? Can't at this point pay one zillion times what they sent for. And don't go saying expenses. Expenses. Plenty of people remake original carts for good price. The chip costs nothing. Anyway just being a thorn. I can wait another ten yrs for it to be affordable

    The mug doesn't hold up very well in the long run.. I used mine as a coffee cup for a while, instead of keeping it as a collectable. Unfortunately the color changing print itself started flaking off, so I really don't use it much nowadays.

     

    I saw one for sale recently, but can't remember exactly where.. Wouldn't mind finding another one. Never did use the water bottle though, which sits on a shelf at the moment.

    Well my mugs are new not used. Don't know what happens when use them! I would be interested in possible trade for water bottle for my mug

  3. Thanx all who are contributing. I bought my first flashbacks when first came out from fleet farm. That's odd is all I can say. Had every overlay in a small white envelope. I've seen others in clear baggies. Maybe someone at the factory handed out full sets in some just to reward people!?🤪 Anyway. So anyone want to trade a water bottle or something for one of my mugs? Is there a committed forum for people like me I mentioned that are close to complete collections that want to swap and fill in the remaining bits and pieces with others with extensive collections? How many people monitor these posts anymore? Expected a bunch of people chiming in with pics of collectibles or whatever? Doesn't seem like it was years ago with like seemingly hundreds of posts a day I had to sort through!?🤗😉🙃

  4. Well I got the two mugs today. Exactly pictured. Like right off the shelf. Very pleased! I looked intellivision collector website. Thanx. Any other places for boxes? He doesn't have all I could use. This might be a stupid question but spiker and triple challenge he has boxes for. They original series releases or homebrews? Pretty sure both original but deciding if I'm going to collect every game or not. Like world series baseball and stuff I don't think I can play without the intellivision computer? Really my collection is 95% I think. Just now getting back and wanting to finish it up. I'm finding the good finds in game lots no longer exists so probably going to be an expensive and time consuming journey! Soooooo. Why ya suppose none has offered up pics of collectible items???? Well I have two mugs I don't need both. I would be interested in selling or trading for something else. Maybe we should turn this post into a swapping listing!? Anyway. Just got another new flashback just to get the overlays. People seem to be buying them just to sell and make money on the overlays I didn't want to spend the money on! Well I felt like a little rant tonight. Thanx all. Been a long road and still a little ways to go!😁

  5. Cool. Had me thinking some kind of elaborate ruse!?🤪 So you have all this stuff from target already? Sounded like he buys store closeout stuff. How long ago was this? Asked about water bottle. Havnt heard back. So what did this originally sell for? Worth anything as a collectible? He had TWO. Was just curious about other stuff I bought like the flashback stuff. Im just now looking around again after many yrs of not paying attention. Appears I did good there. Bought all versions of them at $20? Extremely inflated prices on those now.  So I assume amico never happened? Looks like harder to complete my original collection though. Missed out on all the repro boxes and overlays

  6. Just curious when did worm wompers become a rare cart? I'm just getting back into this. Wondering if I have more of those. Hmmm. Well alot has changed and sorry I didn't stick to it. I too only need the last of the rare. Mostly just the boxes.i know I had a couple like mud buggies and sp hockey but damned if I can find them! I don't like the new boxes being made in wrong color etc. Want the original remake boxes. Those seem to have disappeared as well. Why can someone not continue making those?

  7. I've had in television flash book and decided would buy the other brands. Nintendo. Sega. Colecovision. Well Atari and Sega seem to have different models. Also they don't include game lists. Guess need to know which is the newest or best features or whatever. Sega is really complicated. Have 2 versions here and don't know the difference other than headphone jack and says includes 2 mb games other says so many 8 bit games and so many 16 bit. And again it also says includes one computer insert so I don't know if there r 8 bit game version's and 16 bit game version? How do I make sense of all this. Gonna have to return some of these. 

  8. i wasnt gonna hoard it to make money on sellin units. i simply meant to have a supply of controllers to use with my original intellivisions. THATS whats valuable to me. SOOOOOOO u have my ear now:) u r gonna improve upon flashback then and make it so it can be used as direct improvement for us old school dudes who like the old consoles? if thats the case im onboard with a little patience. this is awesome. wish someone would have done this yrs ago. now complete overlay sets for anything intellivision ever made is all i need to be in collectors heaven! oh and mass produced spikers, wrestling etc:)...........THANX!

  9. ok i see this and thinkin why buy a flashback then? ok i still have not been to a store to physically see these so im gonna ask stupid question. can u buy spare controllers for the flashback? do they simply plug in and out like an intv2 or hard wired like brown consoles? if this allows me to simply buy a couple spare controllers and plug into aintv 2 i think that would be the route for me?.......scot

  10. so yer sayin the flashback DOES include some orphan overlays? so lookup a intelly lives on faceboook then? selling overlays for how much or dont we have any info? much cheaper than this character wanting $15 a pair? well last time i went to one of my dollar generals there wernt any consoles either. online the only way to go? guess i wanted to touch it and feel it make the decision on the spot if i want one or not.......scot
