bikeguychicago Posted January 16, 2014 Share Posted January 16, 2014 As reported by Intellivision Productions on Facebook this morning, the last existing copies of Intellivision Rocks for Windows (and OS 9 Macs) are now available for sale. For those who don't already have the collection, the disc includes some of the rarer and unreleased Mattel games and several games from third-party developers Activision and Imagic. Also included are histories of the included games. This disc is also a great resource for those looking to legally obtain ROM images of Intellivision games for play on multi-carts or Intellivision emulators. With this, and the Intellivision Lives discs, one can play around 75% of all games that were released for the system. I highly recommend you pick up this disc if you don't already have it while they are still available. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaybird3rd Posted January 16, 2014 Share Posted January 16, 2014 I figured their stock would be running low, so I bought an additional copy late last year. It's a great collection, especially for those who own a CC3 and are looking for a legitimate source of ROMs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rev Posted January 16, 2014 Share Posted January 16, 2014 (edited) I hope you guys delete all of your non legit roms before you get caught by the ROM police. Then when you get your CD, you can FINALLY sleep well at night knowing you finally went legit! Just sayin' Edited January 16, 2014 by revolutionika 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
voltron Posted January 16, 2014 Share Posted January 16, 2014 I got two copies back in 2012. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+save2600 Posted January 16, 2014 Share Posted January 16, 2014 Darn, got all excited when I read the topic heading. Thought someone came up with an Asteroids clone and called it Rocks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Rick Reynolds Posted January 16, 2014 Share Posted January 16, 2014 Agree 100% with the OP - grab a copy of this if you don't have one! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bikeguychicago Posted January 16, 2014 Author Share Posted January 16, 2014 A warning for those 3 people who use Windows Vista, this compilation will NOT run on your machine. Sorry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+SoulBuster Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 I picked one up a few months ago, and prowled ebay for Intellivision Lives at a decent price. Finally got one last October for $40, including shipping. Not too much over the original price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoulBlazer Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 Will this run on Windows 7? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaybird3rd Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 Will this run on Windows 7? Yes, according to their Web site. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catsfolly Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 I believe Keith's license to use the Activision and Imagic Intellivision software has expired. If this is true, then this may be the last chance to pick up these games legally (at least until a new agreement is worked out...) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mckafka99 Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 And in case anyone was wondering, the intv files (rom files) from the disk will work in MESS on WIndows 8. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+nanochess Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 (edited) BTW, I've received the Paypal email noting what I've ordered. Do anyone knows if I'll receive another email when shipped? Edited January 17, 2014 by nanochess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+JasonlikesINTV Posted January 18, 2014 Share Posted January 18, 2014 I think I already have a copy of this. Is the only thing still for sale the "Rocks" disc? I think I have the 3 pack that they sold at the CGE some years back. I didn't go....eBay is my friend. I also have those nifty playing cards. Might pick up another set, though.

boxpressed Posted January 18, 2014 Share Posted January 18, 2014 Are "Lives" and "Rocks" the only ones with the ROMs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+JasonlikesINTV Posted January 18, 2014 Share Posted January 18, 2014 I think the 3rd in my set is an audio album. I think it has that crazy "I want my Intellivision" song on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bikeguychicago Posted January 18, 2014 Author Share Posted January 18, 2014 I think there was also a 20th anniversary collection release for the PC but the amount of games on that disc was much less than either Rocks or Lives. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+JasonlikesINTV Posted January 18, 2014 Share Posted January 18, 2014 I'll have to post pics of my compilations. Maybe Sunday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaybird3rd Posted January 18, 2014 Share Posted January 18, 2014 There was going to be another PC compilation released, combining the Intellivision Rocks! content that Intellivision Productions owns (excluding the Activision and Imagic games) with the Intellivision Lives! content, and with an updated user interface, but those plans apparently fell by the wayside. I think they shifted their efforts to mobile devices, like everyone else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+JasonlikesINTV Posted January 18, 2014 Share Posted January 18, 2014 Here are most of my retro game compilation discs. Not pictured is my recently acquired Pal version of Intellivision Lives for PS2. (PS1, PS2, Gamecube, DS, and 20th anniversary are all factory sealed) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcasa Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 BTW, I've received the Paypal email noting what I've ordered. Do anyone knows if I'll receive another email when shipped? Probably, I just received a shipping notification directly from USPS. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
