Grig Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 OK, so I've been an INTV user since 1979; however, I just started collecting for it. Through a few fellow AA'ers I was able to score some nice CIB games and some Sealed ones. My question is with the white labels of the common games - I knew about them but why do some of them have no inner plate (where you can see the inside of the cart by looking into the non-labeled end). Is this just a common version of the white labels or is it something else? My digital camera is kaput at the moment so I can't post a pic, sorry. Thanks for any info.

I meant to check this last night and forgot. I spot checked about twenty white label games and they all had one of two inner plates. One was a full plate, so just the board stuck out and the other ones were partially covered, with the middle of the plate open. By the way, welcome (back) to the collecting world of INTV.

Grig Posted May 7, 2012 Author Share Posted May 7, 2012 That's it. Some of my boxed games have both of those variations. Interesting. I got started with the Intellivision in 1979 when my dad bought one. Star Strike quickly became one of my favorites as well as Space Battle and Astrosmash. I've gone through a few INTV's here and there but I finally began collecting boxed games/hardware fir display and now I'm looking for a decently priced CIB INTV 1 and 2 though I'll have to wait until at least next month as we have some hefty bills due this month. Thanks for the pics and the info Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
