freewheel Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 I got really excited until I realized everyone was talking about Slots, not Sluts. My feelings on Craps remain unchanged. Sluts and Craps, eh? That was a thing a few years back... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Special Teams Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 Sluts and Craps, eh? That was a thing a few years back... I think that's called a "Tiger Woods". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
intvnut Posted August 29, 2016 Share Posted August 29, 2016 Looking at the Roulette ROM, it appears there was plenty of extra space. Maybe not enough space in 4K for Roulette, Slots and Craps to fit in together though. I'm willing to bet it came out at more like 6K, and marketing had them drop the games that wouldn't fit. Roulette on its own fits in about 3K. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It says in the Intellivision Library that APh completed it, but it says it was never announced or scheduled for release by marketing... I'll have to see if I can find a rom... Re-bump. Has anyone seen proof of this in the last year or so? If anyone wants to think through a Super Pro Las Vegas Visit, I could spend some brain power on Baccarat for it.

It's my favorite casino game, so I'd like to see what they could do with it on Inty. The Craps table graphics was pretty impressive, as realistic looking as that of Roulette. As with Roulette, the Craps game tried to make things interesting by allowing each player to place multiple and complex bets. But without the clamor and the drinks and the real money on the line of a casino, the game was rather flat. Slow sales of Roulette led to the decision to halt cartridge production.

These deficiencies were obvious and discussed at the time, but remedying them would have required moving the poker games to their own cartridge.

If you really find that insufficient, you can play both players. You can also bet on the lines between the numbers. For what it is, Roulette is actually quite well done. The screen is attractive, and the multiple and split bets are nicely accommodated. A few people (very few!) who were obsessed with casino roulette and interested in testing out their own strategies have given it high praise. The cartridge gets more interesting fast if you take a drink between spins and involve real money. Flashing the lights in your room and having companions who jump and squeal when you win helps too.

And of course adding more games to choose from is always desirable. And if the cart has the save function then that'd be sweet, too, so your wallet is never lost; well losing all your money is par for the course, so let's say your wallet is not reset between gaming sessions. Not in the cards for 1978, proposed for 1984. WJI Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
