The games on those plug'n'play are not of the same standard as the originals - don't play the same, or look the same - disappointing! Original hardware is better!

[firefly2000]

The WII needs a retro channel like Atari ,2600 , Intellivision, Colecovision .....Ect....

"Odyssey " "Odyssey "...

No, Odyssey II sucked! Epic fail. 2600 was over rated too.

Props to Mr. Robinson for still going around and talking about this. Even though the technology, by today's standards, is no longer impressive, the wizardry the programmers used to coax the maximum performance out of the machine to do what it did still is.

poor quality sound :'( booo

if you look into those 'plug in and play' Intellivisions, don't bother. The games aren't almost the exact originals, and I ended up selling mine. Probably get the Intellivision Lives console equivilents.

@willkoopa Hmmm, I have no complaints with ANY of my INTV stuff (Plug N Play, PC CDs, etc). In fact, I recommend them (along with Jack's Pacific "Arcade" games, the C64, & Atari Flash Back PnP's. I don't know what you mean by "exact originals". They are so close as to be practically indistinguishable from the originals. I have both Plug N Play's & 2 CD's. I also have emulators with ALL the game ROMs.

But remember. He says the modern console owe it to the old console Atari and Intellivision.

No, it's more like they owe Nintendo for bringing back a dead market. Remember the crash in 1983, for 2 years noone wanted anything to do with game consoles until Nintendo changed that with the NES.

[XxSTICH666xX]

Actually they owe it to Ralph Baer with the Magnavox Odyssey.

[fawdown]

I think they do owe it all to INTV and Atari. Here we have the first systems in real color that had an actual library of games worth playing. This basic idea hasn't changed since then. Atari had the licenses, INTV had the graphics and more sophisticated games. It's the same type of competition we have now. We owe it to Nintendo for reminding us. But the NES run was'nt perfect either. Something else would have come along eventually. Everything goes through stages of ups and downs.

[RetroChump]

Hmm. I'd perfer Intellivision Lives.
