Intellfan Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 I recently picked up this Worm Whomper patch . Where these given away when you bought game? 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timdu Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 No - you had to send a photo to Activision showing a score of 75,000 or more in order to receive an "Activision Worm Whompers" patch. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ignorama Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 Such a low score? Damn man, send me back to 1980s and I would win buttons for us all 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JasonlikesINTV Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 Nice pickup! I'm trying to collect all of the Intellivision ones, but a few are...expensive. I also want the Astrosmash Shootoff and PlayCable ones. Someday. At least I have a Worm Whomper one :-) Another goal I set was to retroactively 'earn' the patches by getting the required scores. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+intvsteve Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 I've been looking forever for the 'Horseshoe' version of the Stampede patch. There's also a variation of the Beamriders patch. And PlayCable? I need a scan of that one -- getting it is likely out of the picture. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JasonlikesINTV Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 (edited) How many are there? There are 7 for Intellivision (all 7 releases). Many more for Atari 2600, 5200, Colecovision. This is a good source Edited March 1, 2016 by JasonlikesINTV 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JasonlikesINTV Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 (looks at own patch collection and feels inadequate...) A lot of time and money went into that. Almost as much as would be required to complete it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I say you should send them over to me so that I can officially verify their existence. -dZ. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
