Your top 10 games wanted on Intellivision

[Rev]

Blix 2!

[Rev]

[+grips03]

Gunlord

Metal Slug

Shinobi

D3K

a good vertical shooter

Double Dragon

Piggy Bank 2 - with a kids mode

Two player (at the same time) Ms. Nightstalker

 

or

 

Ms. Nightstalker type game with atmosphere of Tutankham, where you need to hit switches or collect keys to open doors / new areas to hunt down relics, gold, etc. before going to the end of the level. You would have similar bullet management, and sort of a puzzle feel to the levels. Just don't make the levels too big. i.e. no more than 1-2 minutes per level. Perhaps have little traps, that if you go a certain way then scorpions attack you, but if you go another route they don't.

Classics:

H.E.R.O.

Bezerk (with voice)

Wizard Of Wor (with voice)

Scramble

The Legend Of Zelda

Fort Apocalypse

Raid On Bungeling Bay

 

It's hard to think of a new concept for a game. But I can think of some games that are inspired by classic games but have their own twists:

An action adventure like Zelda, but with a few new game mechanics like EXP.

A side scrolling shooter like Scramble but with extra weapons like R-Type.

 

On the C64 is a homebrew scene with quite a few unique games, like Soulless, Super Bread Box, Trance Sector, Darkness... Maybe they can give some inspiration.

Just for fun, huh?

 

Joust

Berzerk

Night Driver

H.E.R.O.

Enduro

Time Pilot

DK Jr. Arcade

Missle Command

Jungle Hunt

Battlezone

Shinobi

 

Is anyone keeping track?

[+save2600]

Tough to come up with totally new ideas, plus like music - often hard to enjoy when it's totally new and different than what you're used to or expecting.

 

That said, it's fun to compare versions sometimes too. I'd love to see top notch versions of:

 

Turtles

Wizard of Wor (w/ speech)

Targ

Zookeeper

Bagman

Galaga

Castlevania

Super Mario Bros.

Contra

Kaos

 

Re: a totally new and original game, something with a haunted house theme would be awesome. But please, dear God, NO MORE freaking puzzle games!

[Special Teams]

Dude, don't mess with us. That looks freakin' awesome.

[mr_me]

I'll second "Super Pro Biplanes/Air Strike" and "Super Pro Auto Racing" (and more free games)

[+fdr4prez]

Here's something original, if you like board games:

 

Khet 2.0

 

The INTV game should have settings for using, or not using, the optional Eye of Horus upgrade, and the ability to select among all the various default starting layouts and maybe an option to create your own starting layout.

 

This was going to be one of my first big games if I able to get into IntyBasic programming, but I'd be lost on how to do the AI for playing against the computer, especially if I need to do a weak/medium/strong computer selection.

 

If you've never heard of this game, the game is sold in stores/amazon and there is a phone app, too.

Hmm... cloning a game that already exists on other platforms is hardly "original"... I'm just sayin'...

4. Mario Bros

5. Moon Patrol

6. Tron (arcade)

7. Gorf

8. Wizard of Wor

9. Missle Command

10. Rally-X

And finally...

Intellivision Guitar Hero: Heavy Mattel

 

Wouldn't that be Synthesizer Hero?

Smurf rom was posted under different name.

Space Patrol is very much like Moon Patrol.

[+save2600]

Smurf rom was posted under different name.

Sydney Hunter... one instance where the hack/change in graphics to a much better theme was welcomed vs. playing some silly Smurf game into your 30's, 40's and onward. Don't think too many were butt hurt over the change.

 

Besides, always have it on the 2600 if anyone needs to get their guilty pleasure Smurfy fix on.

[LidLikesIntellivision]

1. H.E.R.O.

2. Keystone Kappers

3. Enduro (or another good racing game)

4. Bomberman

5. Frostbite (I would like to see as thin ice 2)

6. Seaquest

7. Berzerk

8. Yars Revenge

9. Megamania (or astroblast)

10. K.C. Munchkin

[Rev]

I would of liked to see a port of bomberman to intv. But nothing can beat the snes 4 player battle. (4 player in general)

[+fdr4prez]

Yeah, 4 player mode when used with the ECS and two player mode when used without, would be nice.

 

Or a nice two player game using the ECS and dual action controllers so both players have full button/disc capabilities would be even nicer

[+fdr4prez]

 

Hmm... cloning a game that already exists on other platforms is hardly "original"... I'm just sayin'...

 

True that, but still a neat game

[+intvsteve]

 

Wouldn't that be Synthesizer Hero?

Funny.... back when intvdave still had forums over on Intellivision.us, I threw out an idea to integrate the Synsonics drums, ECS synth, a microphone, and one other controller (hacked guitar) for a Rock Band type game.

[+intvsteve]

2. A new music game loosely based on piano hero. Match the piano keys as they come down. Plenty of great 8-bit music.

Melody Blaster? Not familiar w/ Piano Hero.

 

3. Earthquake game. Your view is a large city skyline with an array of different bldgs. An earthquake hits and shatters tons of windows. Go against a timer trying to replace broken windows. You control a little man that climbs the bldgs. Birds and other obstacles try and prevent you from doing job.

Super Pro Hard Hat?

 

5. Mountain climber. Control a guy climbing a mountain. 2d side view. Scrolling screen. Elements and nature against you. Reach the top of the mountain.

Super Pro King of the Mountain?

 

 

[+Tarzilla]

Smurf rom was posted under different name.

Space Patrol is very much like Moon Patrol.

I have that smurfing rom on my drive but I'll be damned if i can find the original post that Retrolllucid posted it on...

[Intymike]

 

In no particular order. This is what I would like to see.

 

1. H.E.R.O. - groovys rocketeer

 

 

The inspiration for rocketeer is Jet Pac. HERO is a completly different game.

[Intymike]

I would of liked to see a port of bomberman to intv. But nothing can beat the snes 4 player battle. (4 player in general)

 

Try the PC-Engine version of Bomberman with 5 player support.
