Mattel Intellivision 1 review.

[shadowflame1976]

as for the graphics being better than the 2600 well, that isn't always the case at all.. look at Frogger for the 2600 and then for the Intellivision you will see a difference in favour of the 2600. There are other games that look better on the 2600 too Frogger is just the one I think of right away.

Did you post the other video where it didn't work and you threw it against the wall yet? I'm searching "How to repair an Intellivision" right now looking..

[RetroGamerVX]

@babyfacenc Naa, because it's still works just fine :o)

hey i just found one in the trash today. is there anyway to tell if it is on? and also the cord that plugs into the tv witch color do i plug it into?

[RetroGamerVX]

@cmybadz400 Nope, there is no light, so you can only tell it's on when it comes on the tv lol. I don't know about what colour to plug it into, here in europe, we use a uhf connection :o)

[RetroGamerVX]

@Commentator9000 Are there more than 8? I only know of 8 :o)

[Commentator9000]

@RetroGamerVX at 5:40 you said there were 16 directions, but only listed 8.

[RetroGamerVX]

[TheRetroGamerGuy]

[jakesethsnake1]

i learned so much about this console

[RetroGamerVX]

Thanks Jake, that's the aim of what I do :o)

[jakesethsnake1]

il name the things i didnt know it had a model 2 it could dowload games it was a rom based thing (arent roms for emulators) and it sold a ton of copies

[RetroGamerVX]

The roms are chips in the cartidges :o)

[jakesethsnake1]

i didnt know that either you must know a lot about old systems games and everything else while im trying to learn and im trying to find out the names of every home computer handheld console game accesory etc

[RetroGamerVX]

Well I don't know if you know this but ROM stands for Read Only Memory and is a type of chip on a cartridge. That's why they call the emulator programs ROMs because they are copies of the game code that is kept on the original Rom. Names of every handheld console games? Try watching SteveBenway's collection video, he has a fair number of them :o)

If you have any more questions, just ask :o)
