So, did anyone get the collector's version of DIIK? I just ordered it a few moments ago.

No. But then I just read about it.

This one is boxed and sealed with instructions and overlays.

That sounds nice! I will have to check it out.

You can also get the instructions and overlays by themselves if you already have the cart. I am going to get those separately so I can keep the collector's version sealed.

I know your new to the Intellivision but your becoming a better collector than I am!

What can I say?

Sorry thought I could spell new better. I am glad you understood.

No worries. It should have been ...you're new... but I got it.

Any case it seems like you are building up a nice collection and that is cool!

Working on it. I'm trying to get several other homebrews as well. Some of them are absurdly priced, though.

I understand.

All of these new games coming out is a good sign but for me at least it can be one to many choices.

I just ordered other recent homebrew releases this week and I'm waiting for them to arrive. I'm looking forward to getting them. I also just got a signal booster so I can play these games on my big screen TV without problems. The image was getting distorted due to signal loss.

Well, the signal booster cleaned the image quality of the Inty on my LCD TV but that didn't help the distortion. The games all kept stretching and shaking like crazy. So, I gave up on that and now set it up to play on my one CRT TV that I have left - a 13" color TV. It worked without issues there.

Gotta say that DIIK is fantastic! Tough game but it is cool to have new levels for DK that keep the original spirit of the game.

It is always nice to hear good news! Except for the 13" color tv but it could have been a black & white tv.

Indeed! Glad I kept that little TV, though! I don't know if there is something wrong with the Intellivision II I got or if that is normal for this system when it comes to HD LCD TV's. I may get a second system if I find one for a good price. I'd much prefer to play on the larger TV!

Did you try just a signal booster or one of the digital convertor boxes.

A signal booster. No digital convertor box. It worked wonders with the quality of the image (no "rain" or interference) but not with the other stuff. I haven't tested my Atari systems yet but I bet they'll look fantastic now that I have the booster. Those have never had this problem the Inty has.

Had a friend say he heard that you could use a digital convertor box to play on these new tv's. Which make sense it converted the analog antenna stations to HD.

Seems like an idea but why would this only affect the Inty and not any of the other consoles?

I am not sure but sloan might know?

Hopefully he sees this and provides some insight.
