My friend had an old Intellivision in his basement hooked up to a wood-case
floor model TV.  This was back when the SNES came out.  We actually put the
SNES away to play with the Intellivision for a few days.  The overlays on
the controllers were the coolest thing I'd ever seen at the time.  When the
Atari system the Jaguar came out, it's controllers were VERY reminiscent of
the Intellivision.  It failed as a system for the same reason the
Turbografx-16 failed.........lack of game developers.  But now we're really
getting into videogames, and I'm just going to stop myself here before this
turns into a 3 page message.  <G>
