While testing some games yesterday I've started to create a list of Interton games that were not released for the VC-4000. This is just a quick start, I try to find/make screenshots for all the games. Do you know any games missing? Please ad them if possible with a screenshot.

Here is a list of of the unique games not released by Interton:

Palson/TRQ:

Come Frutas (Palson #16, TRQ #7)

Reto Cow-Boy/Pistoleros (Palson #37)

Acetronic:

Hobby Module (#16)

Head On (#20)

Super Knockout (#26)

Shoot Out (#29)

Laser Attack (#31)

Planet Defender (#33)

Edit: Treasure Hunt/Concentration (#18) is Memory I/Flag Capture (Interton #8)

Voltmace:

Munch and Crunch (#24)

Leapfrog (#25)

Screenshots of these two games can be found here and here.

Rowtron (need to check these):

Galactic Space Battles (#15)

Cowboy (#24)

Monster Munchers (#26)

Come Frutas (Palson #16; TRQ #7):

Head On (Acetronic #20):

Laser Attack (Acetronic #31):

Planet Defender (Acetronic #33):

Reto Cow-Boy/Pistoleros (Palson #37):

palson-37

Shootout (Acetronic #29):

Super Knockout (Acetronic #26):

Update: I've checked the Acetronic, Palson and TRQ carts I have and together with the Hobby-Module and the two Voltmace games there are now 10 games which are not released for the VC-4000. I made screenshots of all the uniqe carts I have. I still need to check the Rowtron games.

you were absolutely correct when you stated that original screen shots of the games look way much cooler than emulator screenies Cool

head on (acetronic 20): It's there, even with a screenshot.

sea wolf (acetronic 34): Do you have it?

space batllte (rowtron 15): Still need to check the Rowtron games.

box clever (rowtron 18): I think it's Voltmace #18 and I don't have it. Would be really interesting to see a screenshot of it.

crazy crab (rowtron 29): I found a youtube video about this game. Look here.

There might be other Voltmace games missing and also some mpt-05 or oc-2000 ones, but I don't have the interesting ones for these consoles…

And this was just the first try! I think it's possible to make them better. I'm going to try a few things later on, using a tripod, making real in-game-shots, avoiding reflections, having the same perspective all the time, etc. Of cause I'll then document what exactly I've done.

Looks good! The cars seem to be more detailed than in the Videopac version.

I have no idea why that doesn't surprise you, because it should wink

I'll back that. It's hard to belive that this is an Interton game, I think it's one of the best looking Interton games out there! (It's a pitty that there is no homebrew scene for this machine because it clearly has a lot of undiscovered potentials.)

Ah, I was just being sarcastic because every system's game releases seem to look better than the VideoPac G7000 games Innocent

And that is just plain wrong! Tongue out

Example: Look at the 2600 Pac-Man and then Videopac's Munchkin Cool

of course you had to pick the ONLY example where the King of Consoles looses against the VideoPac Wink

I'll find others too Tongue out

I think Tutankham for Videopac looks better than the 2600 version too. At least it plays much better. Does the 2600 version have an animated intro? Cool

A friend got the Leap Frog cart for me and I will get it in February when I see him. I'll write a small review then. I'm really curious if it plays as good as it looks…

BTW are there dumps of these games anywhere for MESS/WinArcadia or to burn into an EPROM?

A few of these (eg. Planet Defender) are in the Games Pack at my site at http://amigan.yatho.com/

  But unfortunately most of these have never been dumped…

I'm writing an an update of the first post asap. I've found and checked some more games.

About dumping: I have most of the games and I'm not against dumping, but I can't do it myself and I don't know anybody who can dump Interton games.

I had someone in Austria who dumped VC 4000 games for me a few years ago. I cannot remember his name, but will look through my emails. Should be possible to find him Smile
