Ship2Block20 get a chance to see Intellivision and Videogame History Museum team up for Comikaze 2013, to bring an amazing booth.
When EastBayRI was a kid during the great Atari 2600 vs. Intellivision war. They always thought Intellivision was for rich kids – probably because George Plimpton was in the commercials. They never owned one at the time, but it was clear the Intellivision had superior graphics and a more advanced control pad. That didn’t mean the games were more fun to play, however, but some of them were excellent.
And they still are.
Intellivison was amazing.

"You might know Intellivision as your beloved first console, or possibly as the ancient relic collecting dust at grandma’s house. Whether reliving the old days or exploring your roots, Intellivision Lives! is packed with retro goodness. The compilation appeared on all consoles of the previous generation, but intelligent use of the touchscreen makes this an attractive alternative to an entertainment center cluttered with cartridges."
