Byte Knight Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 As a member of "everyone else," we did not hire you as our spokesperson. You are *not* sanctioned to speak for "everyone else." Please refrain from representing "everone else" in the future. Thank you, - "everyone else" Ironic - glad that you're sanctioned to speak for "everyone else"...

akator Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 I think that the Intellivision units could use an emulator upgrade to improve sound and game compatibility. I know I'd pay more for a unit that had NECESSARY overlays..... Having a booklet with the instructions for all the games would be desirable. I think people would pay more $$ for an HDMI unit as well. Agreed. I was surprised by the emulation flaws in both the INTV and CV Flashbacks. Yes, it's a low cost product, however they didn't have to make the emulators compatible with hundreds of Android devices, only their specific hardware. In the US we're 6 years into the switch to digital TV. A $25 Raspberry PI and countless other sub-$40 devices with TV output have it. HDMI is no longer cost prohibitive for manufacturers to use it in their devices. Ironic - glad that you're sanctioned to speak for "everyone else"... Yay! "If everyone else jumped off a bridge, would you do it as well?" There are 7+ billion people on the planet. Every one of those 6,999,999,999+ people is "everyone else." Of course I don't speak for them, nor would I want to Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
First Spear Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 (edited) 1. Prices have not come down to sub-$40 in the southern NJ area (Philadelphia suburbs) for the Inty Flashback anywhere I have seen. 2. If I had to bet $, there will not be an Inty Flashback 2, for reasons mentioned in other threads. I'm happy that there was a #1, it was/is a good experience for 2014, time to move on.

Intymike Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 (edited) Bill L. mentioned that both the Colecovision and Intellivision were outsold 4 to 1 by the Atari and Genesis units. I think that the Intellivision units could use an emulator upgrade to improve sound and game compatibility. I know I'd pay more for a unit that had NECESSARY overlays..... Having a booklet with the instructions for all the games would be desirable. I think people would pay more $$ for an HDMI unit as well. After all, the Genesis (aka Mega Drive) Flashback is the only one that has made it's way to Europe. Edited May 31, 2015 by Intymike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
