Intellivision and Mamewah - Nostalgia?
EggZilla:
Actually, I have that 25 in 1 pad and it's not good. It's actually downsized NES (or SNES - I can't quite remember) hardware inside, running an emulator and lots of the games are just wrong - for example, there are far fewer aliens onscreen in Space Armada.
However, the PlayStation 2 collection they just released, called Intellivision Lives!, rocks. The games are emulated flawlessly, you can play the sports games single player now, and there's a metric ton of extra art, interviews with the programmers, and other geeky, museum stuff. And I think it's only about $20. And it's coming to Xbox sometime soon. Can't recommend that one enough.

Glad I found this topic before posting.
Does anyone know the settings I have to use to be able to get Intellivision to run on Mamewah using Nostalgia ?
There is nothing really posted here and Im having a bastard of a time setting them up. I can get the games list but when I try and run the game the little square box comes up with loading but then just disappears and nothing happens.
Any pointers ?
I am running Windows XP Pro if its of importance.
Regards,
Adam

Well its good to work out how to do things yourself.
I worked out how to run Nostalgia through Mamewah without the GUI and straight into each game.
The main issue you need to check first is the extension of the roms. If you downloaded from Romshare then you will need to unzip them all. I got mine from Bittorrent and the file extension was .rom on each file They need to be .int for this to work in mamewah.
ROM File Extension = INT
List Generation Method = ROM Folder Only
Send ROM Path = yes
Send ROM Extension = yes
Long Filenames = No
Show Dos Box = yes
These seem to be the most important options ones.
Just a heads up for anyone else that might have the same romset as mine or for anyone who has the need to set Intellivision up in Mamewah.
Thanks
