@Gorf - LOL yeah but I'm much scrawnier than I appear in the pic

@jdanddiet - I know exactly what you mean, hitting the ball the wrong way can result in serious laughter!  My dad used to love Sea Battle but at the time it was way over my head :-  Did you ever play bi-planes on Triple Action? That's another great 2 player one.

@TrekMD - Whoa cool I'm guessing it's a homebrew one?  I'll have to check it out.

Spina the Bee is indeed a hombrew game.  Unfortunately, IntelligentVision isn't selling the game anymore.  They are just upgrading the existing carts for those who want their cart upgraded with the changes.

We never had triple action which was a shame, I think we'd have enjoyed that one!

I presume everyone knows about the David "Papa Intellivision" Chandler tribute site? I think it's run by his son-in-law.

I wasn't aware he had passed on :-   Thanks for providing the link.

I wasn't either.  The site is a nice way to remember him, though.

Some interesting Intellivision-related news:  Intellivision Productions and AtGames Digital Media Partner to Bring New Products to Market.  Could this mean a Flashback type of console based on the Intellivision?

I'm waiting for the day when someone makes a universal classic console. One that will play all games of all classic consoles up to the Jaguar.

Cool!

I like how they advertise "Math Fun" as an action game, right between NSL Soccer and Auto Racing. :lol:

You mean, math isn't fun or related to any action?   :21:
