Thanks for the info! I bought this for cheap on eBay as apart of a simple test in which I will connect it to my 5.5" black and white TV and see if the video and audio works any good. The TV is one of several features on a boom box I bought a couple years ago from a Decades store that was sadly closing at the time. I find this video helpful because I wanted to know if the games were any good, I think they look pretty decent but they're definitely only good for my test.
Lmk. I had one in my house for so long. I’m currently cleaning the battery acid and I was going to turn it on n test it but this video answered all my questions
The skiing game reminded me of that other one where the abominable snowman comes after you while you're going down the mountain.
Bought a bundle of this and two of the Atari/arcade blast flashback systems at a yard sale for 6 bucks I think it was relatively worth it
Thank you NSG as well. I have this PnP. I think it's the same as this one, not sure, but I hadn't noticed the sound differences and by far my favorite game on the unit was Shark Shark. I do remember enjoying this unit primarily because of how easy it is to plug and play, lol, and show off Intellivision games to new potential fans/gamers to try out. Like having a portable Intv.
You've very welcome! If size wasn't any issue, the Intellivision Flashback is the best way to go, but this does give a taste of Intellivision in a smaller size.
Seems like they could have included at least one classic arcade port. Something to push the nostalgia button and makes folks want to buy. Thanks for the review!
Well, there's always a Space Invaders clone on the system, but it's not enough. There should be Frogger, Zaxxon, Congo Bongo and others.
5:00 or "What If These Intellivision Games Were Ported To The Nintendo Entertainment System Back In The Day?"
yeah he was really harsh about that
I remember having one of this back in 2004 and played the hell out of it because I got in trouble and had my PS2 taken away for something. I was around 13 or so then but 30 now so can't remember everything. I do remember that astroids game and me just listening to CDs on my CD player and playing that game to them non stop. Wouldn't mind getting one again for nostalgia but probably won't ever.
Heh, I actually got one of these myself, but I think it might actually be a PAL version, and I don't have a PAL monitor rip
update: it actually just needed to be cleaned
Wow I remember having this over a decade ago, but my unit looked different, with handles more like a modern controller
You might have had the updated one, which is larger and has more games.
yeah, that sounds about right. the one with the handles is the only one i have seen in real life, i didnt even know this version really existed
I remember when i had an crash bandicoot plug n play when i was 5 or 6? It was amazing
A Crash plug n play? I've never heard of such a thing. Do you know what it was called or who made it?
When I got this unit I was so excited but just as disappointed when I began to play it. Great review buddy!
Thanks Creep!
I had one of these as a kid
I bought it..but after your video not sure if I will use it now..bummer..intellavision was my first system
So this controller obviously connects to the original Nintendo? It just adds enhancing looks to certain games?
I don't thinks. It's pretty much just a plug and play. It plugs into the TV set and you can play the games he just reviewed. 😊
How do you plug to tv
I've played so many bootleg versions of these games since they got pirated on famiclones
I have one!
I've got the intellivision flashback but it just stopped working 😞 I've got one of these hand held games like on this video I may have to try and find it
For $130 you can have it upgraded into a Ultimate Intellivision Flashback which is worth it since the Flashback is now worth $130 without mods.
@@Super_Bros. thank you so much for the information

Yeah, they've become quite rare.

That's the link to the upgrade service, its a little costly but since your Flashback is out of commission it would be worth the upgrade.
Shark! Shark!
hey! nice video! could i ask you something? i have the same console, but i'm having trouble connecting it to my TVs, how does it work?
You need to connect it using the RCA cables shown at the 0:45 mark. Also make sure you are on the correct channel and that you have fresh batteries.
Sold more then the Amico
It's not even a round number, and we got a bonus shark game. Where's Bruce?
On top of my desk waiting for Ep 400! And I plan to give Shark Shark a proper review featuring Bruce, but not sure when.
I think there was 2 versions of this.
Actually, there was a few of them including another controller like this that was black and had 10 different games, a larger blue controller with 25 games and a 2 player version with 15 games!
this is a nes on a chip, most of the games are by nice code and most of these are found on unlicensed nes plug n plays like dreamgear 300 in 1.

Personally, I found the plug-and-play games lacking in every field. Total rubbish. If you want to play Intellivision, buy an Intellivision Console. I don't have the console, I play the games on my emulator.
