From the creator of the Atari Archive, we now get the Intellivision Archive.  This is episode 1!

 Today's video details the creation of the Mattel Intellivision, the most advanced game console of 1979 and one of the (relatively) big competitors to Atari's VCS console in the early 1980s. We'll also look at the four games that were sold alongside the console at its test launch: Las Vegas Poker and Blackjack, Armor Battle, ABPA Backgammon, and Electric Company Math Fun.

Interesting! I was living in Oklahoma at the time and remember seeing one of these in action at a neighbor's house. Needless to say, we never went back to play it again. Sounds like a whole lot of trouble getting this thing to market but some fine artwork on the blackjack cover there. Sure miss boxes with that type of design from way back.
