No worries, I'm glad it worked for you, it a good little bit of kit. It took me a while to figure out I needed for the cfg files, that's why I copied them over from mine :)raspberrypioneer wrote: 24 Jun 2025 21:48 Thanks for the Intellivision PIRTO II cart. It works very well. :D
I found a few things in using it which might be helpful for others:
Intellivision ".int" files (as used for RetroPie), can be renamed to ".bin" for the PIRTO II, they work perfectly (they're the same thing) :lol:
A single config file "0.cfg" is needed for the 'classic' Intellivision games. The config files are text files which hold memory mapping information and live alongside the game files. Games made by other software companies and homebrew games may need their own config files.
On powering the Intellivision up, I needed to press the reset button on the console and then reset on the PIRTO cart to wake it up and display the menu of games.
I'll need to check about 3d printing a cartridge holder next! :)
