Many fellow Intellivision fans have contributed images to this site. (Sometimes
unwittingly :) Where such contributions appear, credit is given.

I do have a few Atari VCS
games (or Atari 2600 for you late-comers). Check 'em
out! Please do remember, though, that I'm an
Intellivision collector. The Atari page is not an info
page. |

We had one of the earliest releases of the Intellivision
consoles, an original 2609, because I remember
distinctly that the picture on the box for Space Battle was wrong.
I also believe that it had a blurb for U.S.A.C. Auto Racing - but
that license must have fallen through. In any case, we played
that Intellivision so much that by February of 1981 (we got it
for Christmas in 1980) we had let the smoke out of it [1], and it stopped working.
Sadly, the replacement we got for it doesn't work any more.
Currently, the sound / controller chip is in one of my Sears
Super Video Arcade units. One of the I/O ports has an internal short between two pins, affecting
the left controller.
I got my Intellivision System III back in 1986 or so - perhaps
1987, but lost the box and manual somewhere in my college
years. I've picked up other things more recently (the last 7 years or so), and they all
appear on my hardware page.

collection. Click on this link for my listing of Intellivision console variations.

The Overlays Thumbnail Page shows
the principal Intellivision overlays in thumbnail images, with
the requisite "click to enlarge" behavior. It also has
links to further pages showing all the variations I have in my
collection, and some that I don't.
For the bandwidth-challenged, or those who
would rather just see a text list, the Overlays Table Page may be better.
- [1]who let
the smoke out?
- In case you didn't know, all electronic devices operate
using smoke. You can prove this quite simply - if you let
the smoke out of any electronic device, there is
an incredibly high likelihood that it will no longer work.
If it does still work, then there is still enough smoke
left in it for it to continue operating.
