  1. Then we'd have to dunk the whole island in Borax That's the first one I've seen in my place, but I think they're here to stay in NYC. I bought the system at a flea market, so I'm guessing that's how it got it...
  2. I opened my Junior last night to attempt the AV mod on the VCSP page, and saw a _live_ roach staring back at me. It is now a dead roach
  3. Figured I'd make a topic out of it: I'm in the market for a CV MC (shhhh) . I know no one sells these, but I'd like to buy one. Please PM or email mwgilliard@atari.net with relative price/trade interests. Thanks in advance,
  4. Anyone else find the flame effect on James Bond 007 to be impressive?
  5. Ha! Great movie. I think there are only 3 Air Raids in collectors hands, so what rating does that one get?
  6. [slight hijack] Speaking of 10s on eBay, has Video Life ever been auctioned publicly? I remember seeing a Magicard on usenet in '96 and it went for ~$800, and of course there was the recent one on eBay, but never a Video Life AFAIK. If the interview on DP: http://www.digitpress.com/index2.htm is accurate, only 20 Video Life's were ever _made_! How did you get your copy, Marco? Not price, I'm just interested in how some ppl obtain these super-rares.
  7. Finally got a chance to try this out. Sweet jebus this cool! I recommend to anyone with a CCart, etc. I can't wait to see how this develops. Thanks! This is a real-time display, yes? Paul, you should put an epilepsy warning in the readme file . I only wish I had a huge screen to project it on, there is so much action on screen it's daunting. Pokemon cartoon be damned
  8. Replies in brief : I have all reciepts, PayPal, emails, etc...I felt bad for him in July...Being in debt can make you crazy, esp. if you spend other people's $ to get there...Kinkos. Last time this thread started, it took Tom only a few days to send me a nice PM and to post on AA explaining the situation. Now he is gone. If anyone is into the Jaguar, the situation is starting to look a little like another "Tom" incident from years ago. Lets hope it ends more fruitfully. Catbox anyone
  9. Ditto! I have been psyched to get my Thrust+ on since this was announced. My Mindscape Powerplayer is a great stick, but a bit more precision (and some Valium ) and I'd love a shot at beating the game. BTW has anyone actually done this (played through Expert)? No spoilers, please
  10. In the game, there is a cat in the window, a dog under the table, and then a third "ghost" animal, only visible because it obstructs the other graphics. Give it a play and you'll see what I mean. Is this any evidence that the NTSC is a hack / why would someone program a game with invisible graphics? I'm using the CCart and AA rom, btw.
  11. Y-cable similar to the one for the 5200? The pic makes it look hard-wired into the system. Does it only work on the CV? Just looked at that ad again. It is not for a WICO stick, but some other company. Overall, how rare is this? I'd likely have to buy the whole package in that photo to get it, and if these turn up fairly often on eBay for $6, as in the link below, I'll just wait. Again thanks,
  12. Not trying to hijack, but, given the above, is this item: http://www.myitem.com/viewimage.html?ctg=9...=541103793.jpeg also a colecovision controller, somehow rigged into an INTV? I'm just trying to figure out how rare it is, and how well it works. Thanks in advance ,
  13. Now who wants to part with the CV Multi from SK [PM me]...shhhhhhh :wink:
  14. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...item=1386532873 Collecovision [sic] with 12 games for $41. Although it does look like some shill bidding may have pushed the auction up a bit, I think this is a good deal, but just got into the CV so dunno. Actually I wasn't into the system until I found this auction Dukes of Hazzard on the way!
  15. I'd imagine Albert/Alex's investment in this will ensure someone gets in touch with Tom eventually. If there's anything I can do to help, outside of sending a few more emails, just lmk, but I trust they've got a better way to get in touch. Back to waiting...
  16. Trust me boss I had that score well before deadline. Reread the original thread and look at the timestamps. As for the communication, it is better than Junie's but come on: I know of at least one person on this board who has had his numbered copy for well over a month now. ... Not trying to fight a two-front, BTW.
  17. Sweet! The dot matrix music you put up is bizarre, in a good way. If you used hard disks for speakers, like that guy on Slashdot a while back, it would likely be the weirdest hack in a while
  18. Thanks! By the way, I am going to get Marble Craze any day now: those samples of the music on your site are slick! That and the unwavering opinion on AA that this is a sweet game are slowly pulling $25 out of my pocket Any chance you'll be putting up more tunes?
  19. @uber: I just can't get it to load anything anymore. I extended the RSU-232 cable and likely that is the problem, but I can't figure it out: the connections are tight and the Intellicart screen comes up. It just stopped working a few weeks ago. Dunno. I'll put some work into it this weekend, and dream about getting an intv and 2600 and CV with video and audio mods into the cheap arcade cab I picked up. Of course, roms would be loaded from a palm pilot nailed to the side Also: VecRam site. I'd get this too, but already have Sean's multicart, which rocks. http://www.ric.dial.pipex.com/
  20. Jeez! @chris: any chance you could put a call into Tom to see how things are going?
  21. Congrats, and go Cards. I'm rooting for STL, but they've got to pitch Bonds next game. Anyway, just like the Cuttle Cart, I'd say this is pretty much invaluable for a gamer cramped for space (like me), or for anyone too lazy to change carts or spend food $ on rare carts (me again). I'm actually surprised both of these didn't disappear over night: I bought one of the last 10 or so Intellicarts and that was over a month ago, and as soon as I can figure out why mine doesn't work I plan on logging a ton of time on it... There is also a device like this for the Vectrex, and, maybe others (not counting flashcarts). Any other systems this type of thing is out for? [sound of a thread being hijacked ]
  22. I'm interested in several of the weird Intellivision sticks that show up on a few web pages out there, and may have an option to buy a Wico joystick for the Intellivision. Is there any guide to hardware rarity out there / show of hands: is this a rare item? Thanks in advance,
  23. Holy snot is that cool Congrats! Is there a window of when you hope to start selling the VVoice?
  24. Yeah, I've been hoping this would work out for five months now An additional part of my frustration with this whole thing lies in the fact I sent Tom my 2600 as well. Cash is cash, but I had some memories tied to the system. @ Manuel: I remember that thread, but the problems have been ongoing for a very long time, and he is once again unreachable. As for the computer issues: write a form letter on notebook paper and go to Kinkos for 30 min. once a week, just to calm all the people whose orders you have outstanding. I just don't buy his post, esp. since it is now a month old. An update would be nice. @ Albert: That really sucks, but hopefully will keep this topic near the front of this forum until Tom provides some insight, and will lend more weight to the whole discussion if he doesn't.
