Mattel (who ported this to American consoles, I guess) made the Intellivision, so why would they develop a version for their competitor, the Atari? Isn't that like having Halo on PS3? Or did Data East do the Atari version themselves, and if they did, why did Mattel mention it in their commercial? Especially given the Atari's popularity compared to the Intellivision's, it's like "You can have it now on our machine, but it's coming soon on a system you actually own." So many questions...

Mattel did make a line of video games for Atari 2600 under the brand M Network. Although some Mattel people thought it was a mistake to support the competition, the reality was that there were 3.5 million Intellivisions out there vs. 12 million Atari 2600s. It was too big of a market to ignore.

The Japanese. We hear it's common, even available at McDonald's. The original arcade game was created in Japan. -Your Friends at Intellivision Productions

Like all 80s video game commercials, this was hilarious!

-Hotdogs that have a taste for BLOOD!

-Eggs that shoot first, and ask questions later!

-and Pickles that will FUCK. YOU. UP!

I wasted so much of my allowances on Big Gulps and Burger Time. 'Sniff'' I miss the 80's.

@mccarrpo Naw. Just sprinkle pepper on them if you have it.

Weird! I was deep into the Intellivision culture (We had an original console with the faux wooden sides) and yet this commercial doesnt look familiar at all. I remember the one with the couple pulling up to the drive-in window but this is new to me.

Neat to see! God I miss the eighties :(

@SoulMaster71 Back then, the game makers had a relationship, on the Intellivision or Collecovision, you could buy an expansion that lets you play Atari 2600 games. That's like putting Wii games on the PS3.
