FS - PiColeco and PIRTO II cartridges

[rubber_jonnie]

Hi all.

I currently have 3 PiColeco cartridges and 4 PIRTO II cartridges for sale at £15 each including postage. I am currently unable to 3d print cases, so they are being sold as bare boards only. This does not affect functionality.

They are a little like the A8Picocart for the Atari 8 bit computers, but for the Colecovision and Intellivision consoles respectively.

Essentially they boot to a menu and use the onboard 16MB of flash storage to hold ROM images selectable from the menu.

More details can be found here: Picoleco Github repository and here: PirtoII Github repository.

Please register your interest on this thread first, and please note that these are for sale in the UK only.

Thanks

Just bumping this as I am now down to 2 PiColeco carts.

I still have 4 Pirto II carts for sale.

All £15 posted, UK only I'm afraid.

Hi, only a few months late! Wondering if you have any more Intellivision Pirto II carts for sale please?

Pretty sure I do, will need to go and dig them out and test one.

Let me get back to you.

Great thank you!

Great thank you!

Yes, I have spare cards, and I've tested one for you this morning. Be aware they are bare carts with no shell, hence why so cheap. If you want one please PM me with your address and I'll give you may PayPal details.

Thanks for the Intellivision PIRTO II cart. It works very well.

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)
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!
