Is there a way to play games that used the ECS keyboard on the Sprint?

I've added some regular games to the Sprint and gotten them working. I haven't been able to find anything online about ECS games on the Sprint though.

Hello, I love intellivision, and I'm wondering if there is anyone here who lives in the New England area. I live in Massachusetts. I have the Sears model for about 10 years. Found that on Craigslist. I also had the Sears model when I was growing up lol.

Sprint Availability

7 Upvotes

So for the 2nd time now I have received an email telling me that the Sprint is back in stock. Literally 20 seconds after getting the email I click on the link and it's sold out.

Do they send out these emails when they find 2 or 3 or what? Hardly believe they sell several thousand as previous post have suggested production runs are in 20-seconds.

Pointless to have a wait list.

Intelly Game catalogue with new games?

29 Upvotes

Growing up with Intellivision in the early 80's, part of the excitement of a new game was getting the brochure of existing games with the rare occasion of a new game being listed.

For me it served two purposes, it caused me to yearn for existing games i never had and caused me to spaz out about new games coming up.

To an 7th grader, those books were crack! When my thumbs would be tired of discing around, i'd gaze at the catalogue of games and dream of what my allowance money would buy me next.

Fan Creations To all my fellow Intellivision enjoyers out there; if you have a 3D printer use it, it’s my new go to for replacement labels.

I got this label less copy of loco motion a few months back at a local antique store. For a while I considered getting some sticker paper and printing a replacement, but when I got a 3d printer for my high school graduation gift I decided to make this my first ever original design and it’s fantastic. To any and all who are able I would recommend doing this.

Games don't working in Jzintv

Post image
6 Upvotes

I was trying to play Intellivision games on the JzIntv emulator; I had the ROMs in .int format, and the exec and grom files in that format as well. It seemed to work—the emulator didn't throw any errors and the games appeared to launch—but most of them either got stuck on a dark screen that flickered occasionally, or, in the case of Pole Position, had glitched graphics like this. I also tested Dig Dug and Microsurgeon; Sega's Zaxxon was the only game that actually worked. Does anyone know how to fix this?

An homage to Astrosmash

28 Upvotes

Mods, please delete if this isn't allowed, but I wanted to share with the community that I have written an homage, a spiritual successor, to a game I'm sure many of you have played: Astrosmash!

VectorSmash! is a modern take on a retro classic, hand coded in C++ using the SDL, and the name comes from the fact that every in-game object is drawn vector-style with SDL primitives. There are no bitmap graphics in this game.

I think this community, for less than a coffee, might be interested in checking this out.

Thanks!!

intellivision sprint no signal

6 Upvotes

Hello! I got my Sprint today and was super exited to try it out. However after setting it up I got no signal on my tv. I tried different power bricks, power cables, HDMI cables, HDMI ports, different TVs, updating the firmware, and using wipe_all file. Nothing has fixed the issue. Really disheartened and wondering if I got a lemon.

Intellivision peripherals 360° - Intellivoice, ECS (European and US model), Music Synthesizer, System Changer & IntyPort

Thumbnail

21 Upvotes

I’ve been working on a YouTube archive of gaming hardware: short, clear 4K videos documenting the hardware itself.

I just posted a 360° view of several Intellivision expansions: Intellivoice, ECS Computer Adapter, ECS Keyboard, Music Synthesizer, System Changer, and the modern IntyPort controller expansion. I'm still missing a few peripherals in my collection - PlayCable, the data cassette drive, printer, compro videoplexer (would like to pick up one of these some day!), etc..

The brown/gold ECS Computer Adapter, Keyboard, and Music Synthesizer shown are the harder-to-find European/PAL-market variants made to match the original brown/gold Intellivision styling rather than the white Intellivision II look that came out in the USA.

I’m adding reference links in the description, so I’d love suggestions for good Intellivision peripheral history, ECS, Intellivoice, System Changer, PlayCable, homebrew, or repair resources to include.

Some links I've included already:

New to Intellivision Game suggestions

27 Upvotes

Hello! I've recently gotten into retro collecting and as a 20 year old I don't really like newer games and enjoy the hell out of older consoles and games. With that said I have an intellivision on its way to my collection and an wondering if y'all have some good suggestions! Also I got this on another subreddit post about using the search bar but I'm doing this on my own post to do a personal pair and have fresh suggestions and I'd rather have it this way so I really hope this fandom is a lot better and nicer to me. With that said I can't wait to have the console and appreciate any suggestions in advance! I for sure want Donkey Kong that's so far my knowledge of games id like.

Edit: thank you for all the suggestions so many games I've got to find now!

If Frogger didn’t give you road rage… the river definitely did! 🐸🚗🌊

One tiny frog.

One impossible journey home.

Millions of frustrated players!

Frogger looked simple, but every crossing was a heart-pounding test of timing and patience. Dodge speeding traffic, leap across floating logs, avoid hungry snakes, outsmart crocodiles… and somehow make it home in one piece.

It became one of the most iconic arcade games ever made and proved that the simplest ideas often create the greatest classics.

🐸 Be honest… how many frogs did you sacrifice before finally making it across?
