+DZ-Jay Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 Intellivision: B-17 Bomber BurgerTime Bomb Squad Dracula and of course, Christmas Carol Although, to be honest, it's mostly Christmas Carol. Atari: Stay Frosty Stay Frosty 2 Yar's Revenge That's all I break out the System Changer for. ColecoVision: None I dabble here and there with some games, but honestly, I seldom bring out the unit -- not when I can play Intellivision. dZ.

1980gamer Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 I could hardly do a top 10 for the Intellivision... So I will just try the other 2. Atari. This is hard also. But a top 5 is easier than a 5 worst.... LOL 1. Enduro 2. Circus Atari 3. Ice Hockey. My friend David was a master at this game! It was fun trying to scrape a win over him now and then. But that is where MLB evened things out. 4. Dark Caverns 5. Spider Fighter At least one of them is an Atari Game LOL But I had a few others I liked. Adventure, Maze Craze, Pitfall and Pitfall II.. I'd have to dig out the 2600 stuff... But I think CBS made 1 or 2 I liked as well. Colecovision 1. Donkey Kong. As bad as the 4 sprites on a row issue was.. It was my first game for the CV and it got a lot of love. Plus it was still hot in the Arcade. I also like some of the bugs! 2. Lady Bug. I will still play this one a few times a year and like it better then the arcade version. 3. Venture. Played this a lot and it required a lot of angled shooting and the controller had the notches for the stick to fall in nicely. I don't know if new ones did, but my original controllers did. Fire buttons failed too quickly. 4. Zaxxon. I didn't notice how BAD the scrolling was until I tried this game again recently. But BITD, I put many hours into this game. 5. Carnival. What can I say, I keep shooting bears and no one gets hurt! LOL Best feature.... You can turn off the music. I like the song, but not for an hour! I am hard pressed to come up with more game I love for the CV. But some the Team Pixel Boy Puzzle games are very good. I missed out on most of the OPCODE stuff. But they look great too. I know some really impressive "home brew" releases have been made. I am impressed. I just don't like a lot of these games. It is a style more than quality thing. I do have a bunch of SGM games. Anyone want to buy them? I just haven't played them. Should go to a loving home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But this is an Opcode game I missed Track and Field looks good too. These are my style of game! Like me.. 2600 and was mostly Activision games. I liked River Raid on the 2600, but I liked it better on other systems. Keystone Kapers or Capers? was very good as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinjinhawke Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 I did not know Thexder was on Colecovision. Very cool. I still have a functioning Mac Plus with a floppy emulator so I can play Thexder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Available in other platforms. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the 2600 list I stuck with classics, and certainly Activision ruled... but I’m sure there are nice homebrews out there. Also on the Inty I haven’t listed unreleased titles, but Super Mario in its current state would already qualify as a top game... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whenever I break out the console to play a few games, Worm Whomper completely slips my mind -- and that is after several minutes of scanning the shelf looking for "what do I feel like playing today?" Now, that is not cool. What is wrong with me?? 🤨 dZ. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
