  1. Frontline. It´s very rare someone talk about this game. It was a fun adaption from the arcade. Also, one of the most original game for Atari. It originate other games like Command and so on.
  2. Sea Battle in one player mode would be amazing! Absolutely love this game. Also, would be nice have Land Battle also.
  3. Actually, they are only Atari braziliam clones. Dactar never released any own game. Milmar also produced Nintendo 8 bits clones until close its doors in the 90'. As stated above the number is just the registry of the company, specially for fiscal porpouses.
  4. Really love the idea play Sea Battle, Hockey and Boxing in one player mode. Hockey is the best sport game for Intellivision in my opinion.
  5. Actually I have two brazilian Intellivision II, one of them does not work. Would be great find a Intellivision I that works fine, specially because I think it is the most beautiful console that ever exist. That´s my Intellivision II that works: http://s76.photobucket.com/user/rgflores/media/intelllivision.jpg.html?sort=3&o=0 Thank you for your encouraging words
  6. My goal for 2017 is buying a Intellivision I in good condition and working, but I know it is almost impossible because shipping to Brazil is really expensive and the options here are too much expensive also. Anyway, just for curiosity sake I keep searching options on EBay and Mercado Livre. Maybe in an auction.
  7. When I bought a Intellivision and cable controller they took a month to send. After that everything was ok.
  8. Hello again I bought a non working Intellivision II from Mercado Livre in Brazil. It was very cheap and hoped that just cleaning inside the videogame based in some videos I saw in YpuTube I could fix it. However had no luck. The device does not turn on. It´s dead. Would really appreciate if someone could give any tip or suggest any tutorial how to bring this Intellivision II back to life or any tip how I could take advantage of the used parts. Thank you. Here are the photos: http://i76.photobucket.com/albums/j31/rgflores/intel%201.jpg http://i76.photobucket.com/albums/j31/rgflores/intel%202.jpg Thank you!
  9. I know how to clean the controller membranes but do not know how to change a old membrane to a new one. If I learn how to do it, would surely buy some of new membranes.
  10. CCE produced many games in Brazil, mostly known games, like Seaquest, Pacman, Pitfall, and so on. Just google and you will find it. However about Space Tunnel I never heard about. I would say yes, it is rare, not extremely rare because CCE games was popular in Brazil.
  11. Don´t know if it is new for you. My Intellivision II controllers was not working because the objects in the screen was making erratic movements. So, I decided to search on the internet how to fix them and found this video: I can not believe that I fixed the controller by myself. It really works.
  12. This is truly amazing, after 28 years my Intellivision II is back to life! Following your suggestions I bought a special spray cleanner to clean the connectors of the videogame and it works! Anyway, looks like I will have to make a more deep clean of the cartridges because they only work if I spray them just before insert in the videogame. Any suggestions? Also, image of the games are tremblimg in this TV. Maybe is something to do with the cable? BTW, thanks for a video on YouTube I repaired one of the controller. Will fix the another one soon. Can not believe it is working again after so much time.
  13. Actually, my Intellivision is not used for 28 years. Just ordered a spray cleaner that promises to clean electronic contacts. Thank you so much for your continuos help!
  14. Hello again, Following your suggestions I bought a compatible Intellivision cable. However, unfortunatelly now I have black screen in the TV after insert game cartridge and press power on (no more "no signal message"). Looks like it´s a problem with the console. Anyway I´m expecting an adaptor from Retronic Design to connect a controller to conect in my PC to use an Intellivision emulator. Hope this will work. Thank you so much for your continuos support.
  15. Hello, thank you so much for all information! First I just bought the Retronic Design to use with Intellivision Flashback controller. Hope will be possible to use with the PC now. About the TV: after turn Intellivision on nothing happens. I mean, I just have "no signal" message from my Phillips Smart TV. I checked if the channel was correct and it was. Also, tested in a old Sharp Softvision TV of the 80s. Tried manually tune but TV did not found the videogame signal too. The cable that I bought from internet was to use with the controller, sorry about the confusion.
  16. Hello, After 28 inactive I tried to play my Intellivision II again with cable and controllers that I bought from the Internet. The problem is that when I turn up the videogame the power light is on but I can not see any image on TV, tried channel 3 and 4, but had no success. Testes two cables same result. Tested many game cartridges but the result was the same, so it was not a problem with game cartridges. First advice I need, is there something that I could do to fix the console? The problem is that I am not an eletronical expert. Also, is possible to use the cable and controller to connect on PC and use an emulator? Thank you for your help.
  17. I found a 7800 power supply in Mercado Livre (kind of ebay of Brazil), it´s very rare, but I think I had luck. It´s 110v but it is very easy to find a converter from 220v (electricity power of my city) to 110v (most of cities in Brazil). Now I have to wait the 7800, it comes from UK, it will take a long time to arrive here.. Thank you!
  18. Hello, I live in Brazil where TV system is PAL (not NSTC) and electricity power in the municipality where I live is 220v. I´m thinking of buying a Atari 7800 from ebay, but the seller said its power supply 240v, tipical from UK. Also the TV system is PAL, like Brazil. My doubt is that if would be a probem buying Atari 7800 and connect in my local 220v power. If would be dangerous problably would have to give up buying because it´s impossible to find adapter 240v to 220v here. Thank you!
  19. Hello Greetings from an Atari´s Brazilian fan. I bought a Brazilian Atari clone "CCE". However, I must confess that I´m a bit disappointed with the screen, since that the colours are pretty different from the old TVs. I know that Atari videogame was not designed for modern TVs with 3D or 4K, anyway is there a way to improve the image to bring how it was in the 80s? Thank you!
  20. Thank you so much for your answers! Since I don´t have Flashback and original console and game cartidges I ordered the controllers and addapters. When they arrive I will try to learn how to install it in a modern TV This will be very helpful because I ordered an Atari system compatible also.
  21. Hello, I am from Brazil and my English is not very good. Well, I was a big fan of Intellivision games and still have Intellivision II console today. However I give up playing many, many years ago because the controller was not working anymore. It was problem with the disk of the controller which make to character goes up the screen. The problem is that after so many years it is very difficult to find someone who fixes the console/controler and also, Intellivision emulators are difficult to play because of the disk controller. So, my question is how do you play Intellivision today? On real console? How do you keep it working? Thank you!
  22. A very short question: where is the fire botton?
  23. Thanks for your answer I have it working now. The only issue is that looks like it does not recognizing the joystick.
  24. Hello I downloaded Kat5200 emulator, installed, put centipede rom inside Kat5200 main directory and comes a message "error loading bios image". Troubleshooting says it´s because I don´t have bios image. Ok, downloaded Atari 5200 bios from atari age (5200.zip), and put the bios inside Kat5200 directory main again, but the error message continues. Any idea? Thank you.
