Missing reset button

[HammR25]

Has anyone jury rigged a reset button for their Intellivision? I've got an Inty 3. I wasn't paying attention when I got it and it's missing the reset button. I've seen the actual part in another thread but I'm not quite sure how to duplicate one. I kinda wondered if I could just use a toothpick or something if I ever needed to reset a game. lol

If you're any good at soldering and cutting, maybe you could retrofit it with a nice new button fitted to the chassis. Something not unlike the power switch Yurkie does with his modded CVs.

I went ahead and solved my problem by buying this eBay Auction -- Item Number: 220692982956. My case looked awful anyway. The metal section on the upper part of the console was gone as well with just glue there. I only paid $35 for it to begin with and it came with 27 games. Now it's an Inty 3 with an Intellivision top.

Excellent solution! That's what I would have done, I don't trust myself opening up my classic systems especially since I haven't soldered anything since grade 9 and that was a long time ago.
