But, it would probably be best not to design anything smaller. Dont forget you need an edge to grab when pulling them out. By the looks of the design it might actually work out better than the original controllers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnPCAE Posted April 28, 2022 Share Posted April 28, 2022 Maybe just have a panel on the back that slides or rotates up to support the top of the overlay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been using the SNES NTT Data Controller for a while now with my Phoenix, and I can say that having the keypad in the middle makes the games so much more enjoyable. As to your fire button layout, which one represents the top buttons? For our emulator, we made the top button larger to help indicate it (and also because it is more often used for fire) - see below. Perhaps you could do whichever one is the top button in red instead of black? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will of course be specifically designed for this purpose! Lol, I was expecting you to announce "special edition" overlays "compatible" with the new controller.

Perhaps you could do whichever one is the top button in red instead of black? Having an embossed T (for top) L (for lower left) and R (for lower right) would be a nice touch, too, but then they may need to add tabs so the buttons do not turn in the hole. Typically if the game only needs one fire button, then all side buttons are the same, so you can pick the button to use that is more comfy. It is something some homebrew developers need to remember. It is only the games that use two or three different side button actions that the location matters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a great design, but using a 3D print is just rough looking no matter how high the quality printer is. AtGames nailed the look of the original Intv Controller on the Intellivision Flashback. Perhaps they'd be interested in helping you produce these using your design and the looks of an Intv II controller?

A nice idea, but not something AtGames would be interested in pursuing at this time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont think they were counting on so much interest. Im on the list for a pair already, but i will definately buy a couple more once they can take care of others. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MegaRecognizer Posted May 4, 2022 Share Posted May 4, 2022 Saw the Intellivision Revolution newsletter and would love a couple of pairs of these controllers. Do I need to use the google sheet mentioned directly or is replying to this thread as good as signing up? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YannAros Posted May 4, 2022 Share Posted May 4, 2022 (edited) Answering to this thread is putting you at the bottom of the already long list (and no the last ones will not be served first, sorry ) We are evaluating possibilities to produce faster, but we are only a small team and have real jobs beside this. We will keep you updated of the progress, we are at the moment concentrating on having a first batch finalised.

Do you have a count of how many controllers have been reserved already? (unless that is secret info) Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
