    The Intellivision was my first videogame, I simply loved it!

    The Intellivision was my first "major" sytsem. We had some sort of
    Coleco or soemthing before that that had only built in games.

    I've been lurking around the local shops and for sell ads trying to
    find a good
    (original) Intellivision. The overlays are the hard part I think.
    Finding cartridges while not as easy as for say an Atari 2600 isn't too bad, but generally missing the plastics ;)

    It's very hard to find Intellivision cartridges in good shape, especially for
    the overlays.
    I do believe that the programmers that nowadays own the trademark they do have
    a website where they do sell a few games and overlays, I'll check that.

    I played around with a display Odyssey as well. :-)

    Intellivison - did it have the AD&D cart?

    I did - and it was awesome! :) One of the best Intellivision games.

    Both the original AD&D and the later Treasures of Tarmin version got played a LOT in my teenage years...

    I didn't have the opportunity to play Treasures of Tarmin, but the original
    AD&D for the Intellivision was AWESOME. ;)
