1982 Intellivision Commercial

[neocort]

If you think the "flying saucers" in that game look like Cylon Raiders from Battlestar Galactica, that's because they are. Mattel developed the Battlestar Galactica game thinking they had the license for it only to discover later that they didn't.

close encounters my A-hole... because of that movie the 'Roswell' story reemerged... various so called 'ufologists' came out of the wood work to sell stuff to gullible people and also because of the film CEOTHK every bullshitter into UFO's suddenly abandoned the classic 'saucer' shape and went for 'balls of light' and it's still with us today... no aliens in spaceships, just Nazi's being imported into the US right after WW2, thats why you got sold "saucer crash" from the US, you silly mongs.

Intellivision: Great console, lots of great timeless games, horrible uncomfortable controllers that are pure evil.

VERY GOOD INTELLIVISION FOREVER.

[TheLastBrainLeft]

Intellivision was awesome...except for the controllers. I still have my working console and I cannot play the damned games for longer than 5 minutes without my hands cramping. Worst controllers ever (and that includes the awful 5200 ones).

[BaltimoreRavens1999]

If only they would reproduce the intellivision and all the games as closely as possible...they would sell a ton of them to us OLD guys now... about to turn 40 and intellivision still holds a lot of fond memories.

[UpcomingJedi]

@BaltimoreRavens1999 You can find emulators for these old games online. No sense making that old junk again.

[EmperorofCartoons]

@UpcomingJedi Emulators are too half ass. I would much rather play the real thing, and would definitely buy one and the games for it.

[UpcomingJedi]

@EmperorofCartoons Damn, if I had known, I would have let you know. I cleaned out my closet not long ago and threw out an intelivision, coleco and 8 bit nintendo with about 20 games. I used to play that at radio shack until they would kick me out. It just isn't the same anymore playing those 8 bit games. Somehow, they lost their appeal.

This commercial is very cute and charming.

[Matlike1]

tv ads were not as horrible and obnoxious are they are today, they actually had half decent actors in them back then.
