Mattel made the Intellivision.
In fact, I have one sitting in my basement, with about 20 game cartridges.
In the early '80s, the Intellivision was "the" game! It was rather pricey,
as were the cartridges. I had been meaning on giving it away for years, but
I fired it up last year one time and it worked, so I'll just hang on to it
for nostalgia!!
I can't remember the main competitor to Intellivision, though. There was one
other game console out that was big at the time.

My roomate at the time ('80 ish) had an Intellivision which I think was
made by Magnavox. Sort of in-between Pong and Game Cube. :-)
