Intellivision Part 2 (Games)

I take a look at many games for the Intellivision and put them against the 2600 versions for comparison.

Your using emulation, and thats a bad way to compare. Check classic game room by the imecomcompany for better videos.

@bazfanv2 Check out my channel. I NEVER use emulation if I don't have to. None of my game reviews done in the past few years have used emulation. When I did this video I only had a USB capture device and it didn't work with some of the older game consoles (even with a VCR to convert RF to composite) so I had to use emulation here. But it's not so much a game review as just looking at the console itself this just happens to show some games. I guess I shouldn't have compared so much to 2600.

The new intro is ok.

Change the damn music, its horrible!

[MN12BIRD]

The intro music is from the US SegaCD BIOS and suits my channel perfectly.

More like Dreamcast vs Playstation 1. Intellivision being the Dremecast.

@bazfanv2 Hey, I wouldn't ask a stranger for their email address, or give them mine & all that, so if you want, why not send a comment through my youtube "inbox"? That why we get more then just 500 characters to write. I would play Bubble Bobble with you, or especially Final Fight & those "beat'em up" games. We could like "finish"/beat them. Play from start to end. I would like to know which consoles, games & emulators you have & like. Do you have MAME & MESS? & do you like War/Strategy?

@bazfanv2 I'm 39yo from Niagara Falls, NY, USA. I've yet to use Kaillera, I just know of it's existence. So, your a "big" retro gamer, but I am a COLOSSAL retro gamer, hahaha *joke". But I do love them dearly. Got a few questions. Do you have Stella Atari 2600 emulator? If so, "Stella'dapter" get it? little USB adapter for Atari/C64 & I guess Zipsticks. Found it at Atariage.com. Are you @ all into any war/strategy games? I want to play Colonial Conquest for Commodore 64 SO BAD!

[bazfanv2]

@gjc82071 I use Kaillera to play mame games (bubble bobble, final fight, sunset riders etc,etc and ive used it to play sensic soccer for megadrive. Not played in a while as it can be difficult to do PVP unless your a streetfighter or king of fighters addict. Im 36 from england, and im a big retro gamer. U seem pretty decent too.My external is a philips (matches pc) 500Gb.So yeah - seems we have a lot in common.

@bazfanv2 The authenticity factor is why I use the real Atari 2600 joystick, haha, so, I hear ya! I too have an external HD (500gig Seagate Passport) loaded with retro games. My latest console is a Sega Genesis. No X-box here, although I do like modern RTS War games on PC. We seem to have a bit in common, & you seem pretty cool. Hey, you ever try out Kaillera Client? It's supported by some emulators & allows for internet multi-play. There are a few classic games I would love to play PVP.

[bazfanv2]

@gjc82071 The Zipsticks like a competition pro, its the same one i used on my Amiga many years ago, I had it converted to USB. It makes playing emulators a bit more authentic. I have dedicated my external HD to retro gaming. I have the latest consoles, but they dont get as much use as my retro collection.

[gjc82071]

@bazfanv2 Naw, your not a prick, it's cool. I came off a bit...abrupt also. I have 16 real consoles, some semi-rare (Bally Astrocade, Fairchild Channel F.) & 50+ emulators/100,000+ ROMs. I just like having ALL the games (TOSEC/Goodsets) to play. What's a "Zipstick"? For playing Atari 2600, C64, etc, I literally use a REAL Atari 2600 joystick, via USB "Stelladapter". I also have an X-Arcade Tankstick/2 joysticks, 20 buttons, & trackball in the center, it's used in homemade arcade cabinets.
