My favorite Intellivision games were (in no particular order) Auto Race (the first game that let you powerslide around turns basically!) Microsurgeon (an amazingly fun game) Advanced Dungeons and Dragons (a true classic!) Tron: Discs of Tron Sea Battle Star Strike and of course B17 Bomber "Watch Out...For Flack.." "Bandits...12 o'clock.......watch em" "BOMBS AWAY!"

In my opinion it was the most under-appreciated system of all time. I was born in 1980, and was lucky to grow up with an Intellivision in the house for as far back as my memory goes. There was a compilation game, Intellivsion Lives!, come out for PS2, but any fan who bought that can tell you it was unplayable and lacked many of the titles we held dear. So what was you guys' favorite memories and games of the Intellivision? B-17 Bomber (that speech adaptor was awesome!) Bump N' Jump NFL Football Sea Battle Utopia Triple Action (Biplanes) Mission X Hover Force Lock N Chase Tron: Deadly Disks just to name a few..... B-17 Bomber was awesome and yes I had the speech adapter Bump N' Jump GREAT GAME Triple Action was one of my favorite, you could choose between 2 tanks, 2 cars, or 2 biplanes Lock N Chase was alright Tron was a lot of fun Mystie wrote: Frog Bog, Centipede, Frogger, Burgertime, Mouse Trap, Q*Bert, Popeye, Pitfall, Happy Trails, and Blackjack.

Also, I remember the weird joystick-add on that you could stick to the circular pad. I did have two 2600 games made by Intellivision . . . . TRON titles. The coolest part was that I had a lighted, blue TRON joystick that was a replica of the arcade control. I am forever grateful for INTELLIVISION for this . . . as well as trying to push the limits of the home video game console. Just the name (INTELLI-) laid the ground for consoles to be fun, yet more than simple toys (ala DS/WII).

Well not really if your used to the game but if your like me and pull it out every once in a blue moon it is. I don't know what happened to the sleeve inserts but most of my intellivision games were played without them. Think of how annoying it was playing baseball and trying to pick the right dude to catch the ball.
