Forums - Nintendo - Wii Ware ideas coming from Intellivision Homebrew

mike_intellivision on 31 March 2009

I was playing my most recent WiiWare purchase: "Pop 'Em, Drop 'Em Samegame" and realized that I had played this game before -- on my Intellivision.

There was an Intellivision homebrew release a couple of years ago entitled "Same Game and Robots."

It is amazing where ideas come from.

I like to jump around, and would lead a fairly serene and aimless existence if it weren't for my friends always getting into trouble. I love to help out, even when it puts me at risk. I seem to make friends with people who just can't stay out of trouble.

I wouldn't even be sure that the Intellivision game was the original. I've played that game on the PC before, who knows what the first one was

I don't doubt that the game was adapted from elsewhere for Intellivision.

But it just seemed really strange.

What's old is new again, eh?
