Intymike Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 ... I messed with the title ... I meant (I checked) say Beamrider. You reminded me, rightly, that the game does not work with the PAL system; a bit like Motocross Mattel, if I remember correctly? Or was it the Intellivision Motocross, Inc.? The Mattel Motocross doesn't work on PAL Intys. For the Intellivision Inc. version they used a fixed version that works nicely. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A. the first two, with different instruction book, while the third is a new box. Then, the version made in Hong Kong, with French instruction book.

lorenzogino69 Posted March 25, 2020 Author Share Posted March 25, 2020 Hello everyone..after a long time ... I rediscovered my love for Intellivision. I am continuing my work of cataloging all my titles, with the various differences ... today I came across Astrosmash. I wanted to open some of my game boxes, and look what I discovered: ... photos will follow ... Some have, in addition to several electronic components, also two eproms ... others have only one ... Who can tell me why? Centra maybe meteor? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Lathe26 Posted March 25, 2020 Share Posted March 25, 2020 Regarding 2 ROM chips vs 1 ROM chip, its simply that the early ROM chips had less capacity so they split the game in half and used 2 chips. Later on, chips could hold more so only 1 chip was needed. That said, it's neat to see the various manufacturers who made GI-compatible chips. For a long time, I thought GI was the single-source for all Intellivision game ROMs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lorenzogino69 Posted March 26, 2020 Author Share Posted March 26, 2020 (edited) Thanks to all of the greetings ... ? what a reciprocation ... I have never stopped loving ?Intellivision? ... only that I have dedicated myself to something else ... However, I'm glad to hear from you too. Thanks for the reply, Lathe26 ... so those with 2 chips, are they the oldest? I found another astrosmash box, I opened it and I found another one ... as brands I also saw Toshiba ... how nice, they are like Easter eggs ...

mr_me Posted March 26, 2020 Share Posted March 26, 2020 (edited) The chips have date codes, I see 8152 on one of the 2K GI chips which means the last week of 1981. I think the 4k AMI chip says 8148 which would make it older. There's also rom chips marked LM3700, made in Japan; Sanyo perhaps? That makes at least four different manufacturers. The 45 at the end of the GI chip product code identifies the rom as Astrosmash. Edited March 26, 2020 by mr_me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lorenzogino69 Posted March 26, 2020 Author Share Posted March 26, 2020 ... Strange that the AMI 4k cip says 8148 is the oldest, having only 1 eprom ... it should have two, according to what Lathe26 said above ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GI was the original, started with 2k roms in 1979, later switched to 4k. The others probably started with 4k in 1981. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lorenzogino69 Posted April 4, 2020 Author Share Posted April 4, 2020 Hi everyone ?... Today I want to show you my record book?. I did it when I was a boy.

Tommy Tallarico Posted April 9, 2020 Share Posted April 9, 2020 WOW!!! Finally had a chance to go through this thread and see everyone's amazing pictures! Super cool!! Here's a few of my kid drawings... Me & my younger brother even made up all of my own baseball teams and logos and we would keep team stats and play short seasons with play-offs, World Series, etc. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's the only one, other than triple challenge, that has ram. The toshiba chip is 2kB of ram. The 28-pin chip is a regular 4k cartridge rom. The 40-pin chip is the same type of rom chip used for the intelliision ii exec, 4k+ rom and also has the circuits to connect the ram chip.

Il chip a 40 pin è lo stesso tipo di chip rom usato per intelliision ii exec, 4k + rom e ha anche i circuiti per collegare il chip ram.
