  1. Best at now? Probably Astrosmash. For fun I'll throw my Colecovision best in: Q*bert
  2. I've already done it. One was a non-working copy of Math Fun. That was an easy choice since the board was borked anyway. The other was a loose copy of NFL Football. I have several of them and the label on this one was beyond help. Besides, I saved the working board just in case.
  3. Criminy! Did someone actually buy B.C.'s Quest for Tires from happiestsellerever? Maybe not. It doesn't show up in the list of sold auctions. It's ended now though.
  4. The other part of that is a reference to "Room 101" which is doubleplusungood in the book.
  5. Thanks. I missed my opportunity to say that 101 would be doubleplusgood. Doh!
  6. Hey there. Mark me down for a copy too, please. Number 101 would be groovy. Thanks.
  7. Mine arrived earlier this week although I haven't had a chance to pop it into the Intellivision yet. Tonight? It's displayed prominently on my shelf though.
  8. My 10.11 Mac required me to install the FTDI drivers as well. I had to reboot it several times before the software would discover my LTO Flash. The OS saw it in my list of USB devices though. It took me about 20 minutes total but it seems to work very well now.
  9. Sent out a US money order from Canada yesterday. No big deal. Done in 10 minutes.
  10. Seriously, who sells the ECS and its keyboard separately? http://www.ebay.ca/itm/Intellivision-II-Computer-Adapter-Module-w-Manual-ADAPTS-EASILY-TO-CONSOLE-/252520563475?hash=item3acb660313:g:owMAAOSwgmJXx22c http://www.ebay.ca/itm/Mattel-Intellivision-II-Computer-Keyboard-USE-THIS-TO-TEXT-YOUR-FRIENDS-I-KID-/252520536345?hash=item3acb659919:g:rcUAAOSw9IpXx2jB
  11. Toyratt in Milton (not far from Toronto) has some Intellivision. He has more than any of the other stores I habit. www.toyratt.ca
  12. Heads up. There's a Worm Whomper in this lot: http://www.ebay.ca/itm/Intellivision-Game-Cartridges-SNAFU-Tron-Deadly-Discs-MICROSURGEON-Pitfall-D-D-/391526992472?hash=item5b28d3ca58:g:tdgAAOSwbsBXp7NJ
  13. River Raid on the Intellivision is my favourite version. Very well done. But yeah, it can be a bit difficult to find.
  14. Further to the GSP above: I did a little digging and now I see what's going on. Pitney Bowes is taking their tithe in the form of all the shipping charges. So, in my transaction history I see that the vendor got the auction amount whilst Pitney Bowes took the shipping charge. That's kind of sneaky. Depending on the shipping charge, maybe better than Pitney Bowes charging extra above them? I'm undecided. GSP is still loathsome.
  15. I've noticed something with the Global Shyster Program lately. I've seen some higher value auctions where the import fees are zero. Normally anything below $15 US is zero but I just purchased a Sega Master System game for $50 US with a zero charge. Not sure what's up there, but I like it.
  16. The game is brilliant. I highly recommend it to anybody who hasn't played it.
  17. I have a couple ECSs. I'm always interested in games that take advantage of it.
  18. I have fond memories of playing B.C.'s Quest for Tires on my Commodore 64 with my sister. So much so that I purchased the cartridge and another C64 last year. I wish I never sold it in the late 80s but it offset the purchase of my Amiga 2000. Student situation and all. (I didn't buy the C64 solely for B.C.'s Quest for Tires.)
  19. I've had it happen once in the past 5+ years. That's after hundreds of shipments from US, Australia, England, France, Italy, Germany, Greece and Japan. The one time was last November for my Amiga Joyboard and Mogul Madness. It was shipped from US.
