The Mr. Video

Well, the graphics are pretty simple with all objects only being one character. But there's going to be a ton of different types objects on the screen at once.

Hi! I'm working on a game in TI Basic that requires some of the stuff on the screen to scroll down without leaving behind a trail. Problem is, I don't know how to do that. I know it's possible because I've seen some other TI-basic game do it!

I got mines this morning. I tested them with all the games in my TI-99 collection. (Which is only 4 games not counting the TI-basic games I have stored on cassette.) For some reason they don't work right on Car wars, but they work just fine on Munch man, TI invaders, and hunt the wumpus. So far, they seem to work.....Key word "seem".

Yeah, the 2600 port of Pac-man always seems to make it's way into the cartridge slot of my atari jr. I personally like this version of Pac-man. Sure it's a cruddy port compared to the arcade version, but I still think it's not a bad game.

The Super stik.

The game is good, but can you please fix the enemy placement? When I enter the room with the green enemies, one of them keeps spawning on top of me.

I bought mines yesterday. Hopefully it will be delivered next week so I can expand my Ti-99 collection.

Thanks! I wanted to make sure I'm buying a good joystick, mainly because there are very few alternatives. But now that I think about it, pretty much any joystick is better then the first-party Ti-99 joysticks!

Hi, I'm thinking about buying a ti-99 joystick called the "Super Stik". Are they any good?

I checked the inner plastic, it doesn't look broken.

Hi, I bought my CX-40 at a flea market a while ago, it used to work great, but now it has a problem where to move right, I have to move it farther then all of the other directions. Also, the right contact seems to have a "Sweet spot", if I don't move the joystick to that sweet spot on the right contact, it won't register. Odds are someone will know what's wrong with it.

Hi, I had a Ti-99 for a while now and I've been thinking about expanding it. Problem is, I don't see myself going out to buy a PEB along with the 32k memory expansion, a floppy disc controller, and an actual disc drive that will work with it. So are there any good PEB alternatives out there?

I turned my intellivision on and remembered that my intellivision has another weird picture problem. It's kinda hard to explain but I'll try my best. Ok, so imagine two squares, one on the left side of the screen and the other square on the right. Then, imagine the square on the left moving towards the square on the right. Then, when both squares meet, a couple of seconds later, the screen flashes an image of the square on the left in the middle of moving towards the square on the right, that's the problem I'm having. And I don't know what's causing it. Edit: I've had my Intellivision on for a while and the picture is still jittering.

Leave it on for a while? I might try that.

I tried hooking my intellivision up to another HDTV and the picture jittered left and right instead of up and down, Though I still don't know what the problem might be.

I use a microblaster micro switch joystick.

NTSC Long rainbow made in taiwan by Atari corporation Serial # A1811979907

The picture slightly moves up and down. It's not too bad, But it does kinda annoy me.

Thanks for the info! Judging from the pound sign, it was sold in the uk. which now makes me wonder how it got bundled with my NTSC atari jr. Unless it was also sold in the U.S.

Hi, Ever since I got my intellivision, the picture it outputs is jittery. I tried hooking it up to a VCR but that didn't fix it. I'm not sure if it's because of my intellivision or my HDTV. Anybody got a solution for this?

Chopper Command, Gorf, Pac-Man (Yes, that Pac-man), Pole Position, and Vanguard.

There's also Radar Lock.

Hi, I had this joystick ever since I got my atari 2600 jr. off of ebay and I've been wondering if this joystick is a rarity. From what I can gather, the joystick is called the "Microblaster" and it's made by a company called "Replay". It has micro switches in it and it has a rapid fire switch on the bottom of it. I've tried multiple times to find another one of theses off of ebay but came up empty. Hopefully someone will know more about this thing then I do.
