bikeguychicago Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 I'm considering buying one of the Harmony carts. Though, since the only 'Atari' I have is an Intellivision System Changer, I was trying to find out if anyone here has used the cart with said setup and if you've had any issues in doing so. Thanks!

OldSchoolRetroGamer Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 I do not see why not, seems to work on any valid 2600 compatible........... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+batari Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 I know it works with the colecovision adapter (Gemini?) and the 5200 adapter. I have never tested with the intellivision device or heard any report of a test. But my guess would also be that it would work. If it doesn't, you may return for a full refund.

LidLikesIntellivision Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 I hope to get a system changer this year so I will be able to test it with harmony cart. But it may take some months... I have used my harmony with Atari 2600, Atari 7800 and the Colecovision adapter, aka Expansion Module #1. Never had a problem with the harmony.

Algus Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 Intrigued that it works with expansion module #1. I don't really leave my Coleco hooked up as I only have one game for it and I need the controllers refurbished but this might be the excuse I need to have this guy set up regularly.

LidLikesIntellivision Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 Finally my System Changer arrived and ... ... Harmony Cart works great here! The only issue I found with the System Changer is related to Atarivox+. Savekey isn't detected and the speech synthesizer doesn't work properly. It works a little better when I take both Intellivision controllers off. I always read system changer was an almost standalone atari which only relies on the Intellivision for power and video output. Well, not exactly. I was surprised to discover you can use Intellivison controllers to play Atari games! You don't need to connect any controller to the system changer if you want to use the Intellivision controller. Manual states you shouldn't use both Intellivision and atari compatible controllers at same time. I highly suspect this has something to do with the Atarivox+ issues on System Changer. Other than that, my system changer can play everything (advanced homebrews, starpath games, harmony cart etc). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Naturally that is the Intellivision controllers plugged into the System changer directly and not from the Intellivision console correct?

Very intriguing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
