@@JohnDoe-dh6zy oh its really cool, can't play it much and the games are cool but I don't really play them just because newer consoles are out but I really like the history. and I'm 15 now time flies
Wow, great video, thanks! My grandparents bought one but we were Atari kids and were like "whaaat?" Today I am writing a tutorial on coding tiled game engines for a free MIT app called Scratch that teaches programming to kids. I'm linking your video in my section on the history of tiled game systems as the Intellivision was designed just for such game engines.
The memories that this system brings back to me are wonderful. Most of the games on this system, were two player. However, I was always by myself when playing this. One of my favourites on this system was 'Discs of Tron'. I would play that for literally hours. There was another one in which you were a little character in a maze being chased by robots. It was slow, but still kept me captivated. There was also a poker game that I was addictted to as well, on this system. I loved the way the dealer would shuffle and deal the cards, and then deal them on the velvet table, lolol.
Your video is like a time machine!! I used to love frog bog, fathom (even though I sucked at it) and that chip golf game! So crazy that these short clips trigger such a strong memory.
I had Pitfall on Intellivision and loved it.Bevore i had a Atari 2600 and Pitfall was not that good-Graphics big - but the Controllers from the Atari where better.Great Childhood Memories
Had this unit and all the sports games, used to keep stats and play full season's of baseball with "fantasy" line ups. Wish I was smart enough back then to think I was onto something🤔
Same with my Intellevision and ca.25 of the best Games&my Atari 2600( baby) and ca.40 Games and my Philips + G 7400 with over 50 Games ,and i must say the Intellevision had the best Graphics
I have memories of a space game but could not find out what it was called until I watched this video. It was "Star Strike"; the memory was the green trench run style of play. Unfortunately, I also remember what a pain the controllers were.
Remember how people would mock the controls? (Those of us who had Intellivision would defensively say, "Yeah, well, its sports games are way better than the ones on the 2600.")
I for one am glad we have the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X these days. Back in 1979 the Intellivision cost $165, which is $620 today adjusted for inflation. Suddenly, $500 for an Xbox seems cheap.
The world series major league baseball was the wrong cartridge for the box and name shown. You showed the improved original MLB baseball. The world series baseball, you had to have the intellivoice, with the computer component and the keyboard to play. It would not play without the computer add on component. But, it was a great baseball game, even better than Nintendo baseball. You could slide, slow motion, replay, pitchers wore down and you had to go to the bullpen, some players were faster, others could hit homeruns and there was pop flies.
I should help to record some replacement videos. Whoever recorded these videos obviously didn't know how to play some of the games. Dragonfire and Dreadnought Factor come to mind.
Great video seeing all the games. But it would have been better to watch someone who knows how to play the games demonstrate them. Utopia is arguably one of the best games on the system. While I get that a 10 second preview won't do it justice, whoever is "playing" it is clicking on storm clouds and pirate ships.
It's the first 16-bit video game console yet the graphics is not as good as the NES, nor the SNES? It's cool vs. Atari 2600, of course. God bless, Proverbs 31
I'm 13 years old and I have the intellevision with about 20 games! My Grandma gave me hers
Good on you! I even enjoyed mine in college in the 90s, friends loved it!
As a 13 year old, what do you think of it?
You lucky guy!

@@fortniteconnoisseur_ it's a treasure from your grandma. Take good care of it.
Here in Britain we still use Armor Battle to train our tank crews. It's the most advanced tank simulator we have.
Lol
8:28 Uhhhh... hey you guys? I guess?
brings back memories. i had the original intellivision and several of the games.
It looks like a cool system to play games on
Burgertime was one of the best games of this console, I miss those days

So many nostalgic memories. Especially the sounds of the games. The intellivision i think was my first game system.
Thanks
Astrosmash,Donkey Kong,Sking, Bowling,Space Hawk and Snafu were among my faves . This system was ahead of its time

You did an excellent job with this video. Thanks for showing the box covers too.

So many memories! Two of my favs are Astrosmash and Lock And Chase!
Finally, you revamped Mattel Electronics Intellevision again! Just precisely what I was awaiting for.
Perfect !!! I had no idea or it may have came sooner :)
Astro Smasher , Burger Time and PitFall were awesome
I had Pitfall on Intellivision and loved it.Bevore i had a Atari 2600 and Pitfall was not that good-Graphics big - but the Controllers from the Atari where better.Great Childhood Memories
Love that Bump N Jump theme!!!
no doubt !!!
My parents bought me this when it came out, I thought it was the absolute best.
My young brain couldn't handle it.But, it kept me busy on rainy days.

Thanks man! This is GOLD
Loved Intellivision. Played alot of space battle, sea battle, baseball golf, and nightsralker:)
YES !!!!
Hours and hours of Tennis matches against my cousins and I loved Nightstalker and skiing
😍
Amazing 👏 🙀 🙂 good memories.
Auto racing was the nest hame ever
21:56 is supposed to be some kind of santa/christmas game, not scooby doo, obviously.

Aww, you didn't demo the tail eating game! So nostalgic. Really great example of doing more with less.
Best game system EVER!
I thought i played 1941 on the Intellevision,but it was propaply Mission X or River Raid!IThe last time i played it was ca.or 88/89 over 20 ago
Its interesting seeing where tetris and minesweeper got their ideas from
fun fact, M Network is the Atari 2600 version of these Intellivision games. Example: Space battle is Space Attack on M Network.
Thanks mate
Great memories 😊
Bump n Jump was, by far, the best Intellivision game. Lock n chase and burgertime were also really good.
I still have my Intellivision and about 50 games.
Awesome 👌 I have sold most of my massive retro game collection
I see you've got the original 4 IntelligentVision titles in addition to the commercial games. I wrote SameGame back in 2001.
Who would you guys say is the mascot for the Intellivision?
Dominoes app sends you a pizza with a side order of cops on the side to your hotel room .
You knew you used it alot when the wiring started pulling off the controller.
Remember how people would mock the controls? (Those of us who had Intellivision would defensively say, "Yeah, well, its sports games are way better than the ones on the 2600.")
Hahahaha the frogger was on there!!! 😂🤣😂
If I tell you that all of these are 16-Bit games, will you believe me?
Yeah i heard about that yesterday in a Intellevision Review on a TH-cam Channel for the first Time and thought thit he really saying 16 bit?
It's hard to believe, but I can believe that some games look like they have big pixels for a reason.
Bought the game for Baseball, but Golf was my fav
B-17 was my fav at my neighbors

Did you make this video using an emulator front end of some kind? What did you use exactly? It's a very nice looking GUI.
Nobody talks about Beauty and the Beast for the intellivision it was one of my favorites. Yeah it's a Donkey Kong clone but it's a good one.
Don't think I've played much of Beauty and the beast on this system. Donkey Kong is classic
FROG BOG!
yeah Frogs and Flies on M Network
oh i forgot about bump and jump!
Mind Strike didn't get a play, Lol
My 1st console.
No Moon Patrol or Choplifter?
12:10 Why didn't you play a game of blackjack? :)
Gostava desse 19:14... mais curioso! Era intrigante essa floresta!
i can barely see the games you made it so small, and on top of that you have them partially covered

You're running Hyper Spin too? Where are these files available? Not the ROMs, the videos and picture files.
over on the official Hyperspin Forums and or Emumovies.
Where's Moon Patrol?
Even intellivision Pacman was better than 2600's...
Microsurgeon... incredible...
I hear a lot of rave reviews about microsurgeon, but it doesn't look that impressive. Could you elaborate what makes it so good?
I should help to record some replacement videos. Whoever recorded these videos obviously didn't know how to play some of the games. Dragonfire and Dreadnought Factor come to mind.
Most of them, actually.
LOVE 💓
I’m guessing this was before Colecovision
just before
@@SupremeNerdway before Intellivison was 1979-1980(79 was the test launch and 80 was the full one) and Colecovision didn't come out till 82.
@@The_Real_DCT that's right. Which is why i said it was before colecoVision
No Boulderdash? :o
nope
I don't remember the sound effects being so annoying.
My Top 10
Dungeons and Dragons
Astro Smash
Night Stalker
Star Strike
Moto Cross
Trucking
Baseball
Utopia
Boxing
Tron
Porque nadie comparte
donde esta ese emulador es para pc donde seconsigue
River Raid 💪
Ok intelligent tv or smart tv for short lol
It would have been good if the sample of play of each game was indicative of the game, not just farting around.
Sweet😊
Soccer missing
Look at the likes and see

Smaller please
You’re missing night stalker!
It was in there...
Microsurgeon was the best
