BillLoguidice Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 https://www.facebook.com/intypodcast/posts/1200526330045844 Thanks for the link. Yes, a meeting did take place last week, but keep in mind that everything is still tentative, including game lists and whether or not this will go into production, not just when. So hopefully expectations are tempered if for some reason this doesn't work out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr_intv Posted March 23, 2017 Author Share Posted March 23, 2017 Hopefully in the coming weeks everything will be officially official with what games will be added. I really thought a FB 2 would never see the light of day so it's fantastic that meetings are/have taken place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flojomojo Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 Keith Robinson, the main Intellivision man, said Keith Robinson As I announced at Arcade Expo 3.0 last weekend, At Games, manufacturer of the Intellivision Flashback console informed us that they would like to release an Intellivision Flashback 2.0 later this year and that they do intend for it to have at least 15 games not on the original console, HOWEVER, there has been NO announcement of any new games yet. While we all would love to see the Data East and TRON games included, negotiations are just beginning and nothing has been finalized yet. Stay tuned!

Yes While we're at it, I'm still in the market for a nice portable Intellivision, maybe a new and improved Intellivision Lives on the New 3DS.

+fdr4prez Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 Too bad the iFB 2 won't be in the theme of the Inty 2 console motif. And then the iFB 3 could be in the System III motif Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And then the iFB 3 could be in the System III motif At least costs are lower with the molds already done. This might encourage them further...

+fdr4prez Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 At least costs are lower with the molds already done. This might encourage them further... Exactly, that is why I am thinking that the iFB2 will not be Inty II motif. The molds are already done for the original console. Also, word should be sent to Keith that when production ramps up that he should stock up on spare controllers, so they are not constantly out of stock. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dgdgagdae Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 Yes While we're at it, I'm still in the market for a nice portable Intellivision, maybe a new and improved Intellivision Lives on the New 3DS. You mean one that doesn't cut off the bottom of the screen in Minotaur/Treasure of Tarmin so that the game is actually playable? Still bitter. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still bitter. Intellivision played on nintendo is sacrilege anyways. And some people think it's wrong to play on emulation and not actual hardware!

atarifan88 Posted March 25, 2017 Share Posted March 25, 2017 (edited) Currently AT Games is rumored to be making the Atari Flashback 8 with an HDMI video output. I wonder what the chances are of a possible Intellivision 2 Flashback following suit? Thinking "happy" thoughts on this one!

I wonder what the chances are of a possible Intellivision 2 Flashback following suit? Thinking "happy" thoughts on this one! That would be cool, as long as the games are still in the correct 4x3 aspect ratio (or the option is there if it's not set by default). I for one can't stand 4x3 screens being stretched to 16x9 - games, movies, anything. Really bugs me.

If the Intellivision Flashback 2 does end up getting made, I don't anticipate an HD model, unfortunately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
