sphutch78 Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 i just recently added a intellivision 2 to my collection. I'm a dedicated Atari fan having a heavy sixer and and four switch vader console and my sleek 5200, and still have love for my coleco and NES. Rumor had it there was a Intellivision 2 console in the box with no cords or games at the local thrift and i jumped and the rumor cost me ten whole dollars. System when tested lights up on the LED switch but no games to test, I was hoping there would be a start up screan like the colecovision but there wasn't. My first question is what games are worth the purchase, not just rarity but fun to play. Also ned to know how to open up controllers to clean them, there are no scews holding these thin coleco like controllers together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moycon Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 I'll second Beauty and the Beast. Great game. I'm surprised they never made an Atari 2600 port of that one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rik Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 (edited) You HAVE to get Shark! Shark!,and Thunder Castle.Thunder Castle has the best sound,music and graphics bar none for the INTV.Shark! Shark! is just simply super fun.You have to have a cartridge plugged in to get a start up screen for the INTV,2600,etc.Even though you get a start up screen with no game plugged in to the ColecoVision,iirc,its not good for any system to do that.

Vic George 2K3 Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 I had Horse Racing, Space Battle, Centipede, Pac-Man, TRON Deadly Discs, TRON Maze-a-Tron, and TRON Solar Sailor in my library during the time that I owned an INTV II back in 1984.

thrax Posted September 25, 2009 Share Posted September 25, 2009 In general the games made by imagic were all excellent and innovative. Additionally, most of the RPG (Fantasy) games for intellivision were great too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason73 Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 I think Utopia and Burger Time were my favorites. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
