- This original never-before-seen Intellivision promotional video from 1978 has never been released to the general public. We pulled it out of our archives to share with everyone on our 40th Anniversary. This was filmed a year before the official launch and there are some images and information in the video that are different from what ended up coming out. Can you pick them all out?
We have many unseen videos from our archives that we will be sharing with people in the coming year.
Please make sure to sign up to our mailing list at IntellivisionAmico.com to get all of our news and information before anyone else.
The new Intellivision Amico family and friends entertainment gaming system will be released on 10/10 2020.
My favorite things were that epic Battlestar Galatica cart (never released under that name) and the different baseball pitch sound!
And No Yer Out sound.
@@dallase1 Yep. When he threw the guy out at second I kept waiting for it, too.
Too see and play most of these games again will be like meeting up with a long lost best friend you haven't seen in years
Budgeting & Taxes coming to Amico??
I *knew* those were Cylon Raiders I was shooting down... never would've imagined it would take 40 years to confirm it.
This is really cool. Its like opening a time capsule.
Indeed! So good Memories

So far ahead of its time. Truly amazing!
This is amazing, the narrator really sells how impressive the technology is and what made intellivision sophisticated for its time
That mock-up of the keyboard component would be worth serious dork dollars if it survived.
Robert Zawarski Truly a console ahead of its time
B-17 Bomber was an absolute favorite! This console was the first to have speech and voices in it. Using a synthesis module that you would plug into your Intellivision on the side of it.
"Fighters, three o'clock! Look out!"
It was a fantastic game, something Atari owners could only dream about! Sea Battle was another favorite although my best friend constantly beat me at it. AD&D Treasure of Tarmin was, without doubt, my favorite Intellivision game!
BEEEEEEE SHEVENTEEN BAWMER!
intellivision Amico team, I am humbly thankful for making the dream come true.
I just wish they would release original Intellviison games, ported as is, to the Amico. Having said that, I am a Founder Edition reservee!
Wow, just amazing. I never knew that the Intellivision had a tape deck, keyboard. Nore that it was a 16 bit system.
It was way ahead of its time
The keyboard and tape deck weren't really available (very rare) until the Intellivision became irrelevant as a home computer.
It was a 16-bit processor but not graphics. The keypad overlays added so much to games like MLB Baseball, Sea Battle, Tron Deadly Discs, Advanced Dungeons and Dragons, et al. That original controller was brilliant....except for those brutal side buttons!
My second console owned, after Atari, and it made the VCS look like a joke.
Intellivision is my favorite video game console of all time! It holds a special place in my heart and childhood. I can't wait until the Amico comes out:) nostalgia overload!!
It holds a special place in my heart too. I spent many hours playing against my brothers and friends. I still have the original console with about 30 plus cartridges. I refuse to part with them. Il look forward to the release of Amico. Astrosmash was probably my favorite, followed by MLB Baseball. Good times for sure!
me too ... and hope my kids will love it
I remember the year I woke up on Christmas morning (I always woke up earlier than everyone else) and saw that Santa brought us an Intellivision. I think it came with Poker and BlackJack and had Donkey Kong included too. I played Poker a little bit, but didn't put in Donkey Kong. and then went back to bed for a while. Got up again when my brothers and sister woke up, and we all played the games in awe. Over time, we had a nice library of games going. One of my favorites was always Pitfall. It had years of enjoyment played by all of us. My Dad had a blast too.
I used to play one of my friends in NHL Hockey all the time. I remember scoring goals from center ice, having pucks go in from behind the net, and players getting stuck in the penalty box. Great memories!
This was fantastic to watch. Like going back in time. Lol HAPPY BIRTHDAY INTELLIVISION.
So many cool memories as a kid playing games like Kool Aid Man, Sea Battle and He-man with my childhood best friend when I used to go spend the night at his place.
Sea Battle is still awesome!!
THE KEYBOARD unit totally sold my family on it, but it never came out and 4 years later we gave up waiting, and bought a commodore 64. Its as a game unit far ahead of its time, and set the standard for so many consoles years ahead.
I had the Intellevision, with all the available games, the keyboard and a piano keyboard.
wow!!! the original, first see, keyboard? or the second release?
This is the type of system a time traveler makes when he jumps back just a bit too far and decides to make it anyway
I was 8 years old, my wife was about 6 months old...I would LOVE to go back to this simple, amazing time. Everything was new!:)
Pumped the the Amico! Can’t wait for it to come out!
Loved the Intellivision! My favorites were B-17 Bomber, Tron Deadly Discs, Burger Time, Pitfall, Frogger, AD&D..I'd love to play them again
c'mon mr Tommy Tallarico, we are waiting too much for the new system... let's release AMICO
I also loved how the Keyboard Component programs ran in 80-column mode. Must have been one of the first features cut to reduce the price. ;)
"Realistic Sound Effects"
bEE SeVENtEEN BOmBer
Show me an NES game with as much speech as an Intellivoice game.
Great! :) Waiting the Amico's release, my friends. ;) Congratulations from Brazil.
Neat. Space Battle was Battlestar Galactica!
I absolutely loved this I was getting serious Robert Stack vibes off that voice over person enjoyed that a ton
That is William Shatner. :)
Wow...being serious here for a sec...the fact that it could help you make budgets...i mean we all know things like Excel...but this thing was a handful of years before Excel...and a console! Mad Respect!
They were really aiming at a low-cost home computer. At the time the Apple II was well over $2000 and the best "budget" home computer was the TRS-80. With peripherals, it was still closing on 1000 bucks.
The software was incredibly expensive! My mom was an accountant and bought an Apple II, 48k, two disk drives, RF modulator (but also a color monitor), Peachtree software.....total was over $4000!!!
@@tempestfury8324 I remember the TRS-80 but had no idea the Intellivision has these capabilities. This thing was way ahead of its time
@@thewren8162 : Intellivision had the processing power but was lacking in graphics, something ColecoVision really nailed for the time.
Wow 16 bit was unheard of back then
This is simply awesome!
never owned an intellivision so I didn't know the amico was gonna use the exact same control layout! but this was a neat bit of history, excited to see more!
I want the $105 mortgage payment (but not the $525 monthly income).
Oh no, that wasn't too bad because housing was affordable then. What's interesting is that some items, like video games, are in an inflation bubble. Intellivision released at $299 which would be over 930 bucks today! Funny to hear people complain about a 50 or 60 dollar game today, when in reality that is one hell of a bargain!
That's fantastic. I'm glad this was preserved all these years. Who knows how much from this period of gaming history we've lost. I think Amico should update the Gorilla math trainer game.
Math Fun! It's happening!!!
@@Intellivision That's amazing! I can't wait to see it! I'm really excited to see all the Amico stuff ya'll have been working on!!
Happy 40th Birthday Intellivision! I loved Intellivision so many years ago and I still love it today December 8th 2019! My friends and I would play Intellivision endlessly. I still remember the Intellivision commercials with George Plimpton and featuring the game Star Strike! I also loved the 3rd party games as well like the games by Imagic, Activision, and of course Data East games like Bump n' Jump and Burgertime! I'm also excited about the new Amico Intellivision. I can hardly wait. Thank you Intellivision for so many years of fun!
For me, AD&D Treasure of Tarmin was the greatest Intellivision game. I hope they have a remake for the Amico!
It was SOOOOOOO ahead of its time.
Remember that the Apple 1 came out only 3 years earlier.
It was incredible for its time.
wow! That was great! Such fond memories of this console and I am excited to get my hands on an Amico. Thx for the post!
The Space Battle Cartridge said Battlestar Galactica on it, so it was true that those enemy ships were supped to be from Battlestar Galactica but I guess they could not get the rights to Battle Star Galatica name. He said Football had penalties, that's not true, I wonder if they planned on having penalties but ran out of time to program that feature in the game?
Intellivision is my favorite 2nd gen console, I like it way more than 2600.
I want to play that tank game! The speech voice sounds so clear too, this was far ahead of its time.
2:22 "Rub Out" button. So it came with pron too?
It’s like we’re watching a mini-preview for Amico. But this proves it man! It needs online multiplayer!! It’s modern day yo
Lol. Kids would have no clue what this guy was talking about. 😂 Thanks for posting.
Good video! Interesting to watch! Nostalgic for sure!
Thanks for sharing! It's still the best!
This is fantastic! Thank you for posting this!
"All you need to know to play each game is printed RIGHT on the overlay." Hmm, I'll trial this on my kids with Sea Battle.
I bet they pick it up within minutes.
lol..sea battle..lmao...
this is so awesome 💜
Salute to the King Intellivision Lives!!!!
Love the demo footage as stuff like this is hard to come by. It's cool to see Armor Battle had a much more complex hp system compared to the far simpler 2-hit system
Now I kinda want an Intellivision keyboard lol
Sounds like the FUTURE!
it is the future 😎
This looks like a terrific product! Sign me up!
I miss this so much
Standard NTSC until 1998 when HD 720p rolled out. Intellivision games still looked better than the Atari 2600 offerings.
we better get a cassette drive Tallarico
This was made when people had actual attention spans.
Had not seen this version of the Keyboard Component before.
You didn’t get football for free with the master component. You got poker and blackjack.
Beautiful 😊😊😊...
Did not know it had all the stuff like learning languages, reading, budget, cooking.
Turbo Tax in 1979. Expectations were higher than the moon. Companies really thought they could do anything.
I bet the backgammon video game was pretty intense.
Interesting seeing these beta-build games and how they changed before release.
Keyboard component! Ugh -- I waited (so impatiently) for that from when I was 8 until 10 years old... eagerly scanning each newsletter(?) when it would arrive every three months for some notice of they keyboard's availability. I didn't know how to make games yet, but I figured that keyboard would let me do it... (We got a computer when I was 10, so I was able to start making games.)
That shifty eyed dealer. Love it.
Wow, video game ads were too dry and businesses-ey back in the '70s.
By what standard? I'd argue ads of today are too flashy and scatterbrained.
@@richardlinakus3950 By "Genesis Does" standards, of course.
the era was dominated by crap music too, I know, grew up in it, and got this beauty in 82. Tehn everything got better, until game systems got too complicated and antisocial, and on CD, ugh...
Looks interesting. Gonna stop by my local Childs World when my shift at The Photomat is over and pick one up for Christmas.
Well they were trying to sell a low budget "computer", not just a game machine. The Apple II (with a whopping 48k) was well over $2000 and the Intellivision was 300 bucks. Apples to oranges but computers and game consoles were still new to the home market.
Yep, they were dry but the focus was on the consumer. No one bought a Nintendo to use a spreadsheet or mortgage calculator.
So, the keypad overlays were done first by Intellivision. I remember my Atari Jaguar had games that utilized effectively the same thing.
Is that the voice of Robert Stack from "Unsolved Mysteries" ?
4:50 hey look it’s NBA 2k21
Did anyone notice in the "Family Data Base" screen (in the health program) that the "Dislikes" for each person are unlikely phrases in reverse?
"TO INTEND", "FARAWAY", "HAVE THEY", "TO SAIL"
My knowledge of literature is a bit shallow so I'm not sure what source they are from :-)
Gotta love mock-ups!
Favorite Food... Beer. hahah
Wow, that is neat.
1:42 : arrrggghh! Those "action" buttons!
I think that this was already on youtube but it does look a little batter.
It still bugs me that intellivision had a 16bit processor
This is so very cool :O
It was mentioned that at some point the BSR web site would be reworked and enhanced with new content. Is this video part of that process?
So Intellivision the product, became the company? So what’s Mattel up to lately?
First? Amazing video! Thanks for sharing!
The keyboard looks more C64c-ish here
Is the narrator William Shatner?
Круто
"humanly engineered"
Sounds exciting! When can I get one?
1979
Video games could have been developed further to improve intelligence and social interaction rather than overemphasis on graphics and isolated gameplay.
The "computer module" software looks… umm… simulated. 😏 Were they? I've never seen that before.
The computer module that you see in this video was never released, and was probably a non-working prototype.
As I understand it, intellivision got into trouble for marketing the system as being expandable, and so they did eventually release a keyboard component that looked nothing like what appears in this video, but never supported it with anything.
@@ZagnutBar What about the Basic cartridge? Wikipedia mentions the component used a 6502, which is the same cpu of the Famicom (NES) and many 8 bit PCs of the time like the Apple II. Don't blame Mattel Electronics, Commodore did the same thing to their floppy drive lol. Its mentioned 4000 units were produced. Then the ECS came cheaper without the need for another cpu in 1983 which ended the FTC fines for the "keyboard" delay. Only 6 cartridges made use of it.
Where that Earthworm Jim at?
Is that Robert Wagner narrating?
Shatner???
Wait?!?!?!
The original Intellevision was 16bit? 😓
Yes it has a 16 bit processor from General Instruments
It’s sure looks like a fake tape deck to me. Has any else notice that too?
That's very much a mock up. Wonder if it's survived? If it did, it would be worth a ton of dork dollars.
Shut up and take my money.
Is it me, or is William Shatner doing the narration?
