zmbdog Posted March 9, 2010 Share Posted March 9, 2010 I got an Intellivision from my Dad's second hand store several years ago. Whoever sold it to him had about 20 games (w/ overlays) and some kind of computer/keyboard add-on. I know Intellivision wasn't a huge hit and an add-on like this was probably expensive at the time and sold even less, so my question is: How rare is this?

cparsley Posted March 9, 2010 Share Posted March 9, 2010 Rev has hit it on the head... if it’s the snap on (ECS), it not that rare, but if the INTV console sits inside the computer, hehehe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaybird3rd Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 What's the going rate for an ECS computer module these days, anyway? My impression is that they seem to go for about $70 on eBay, and around twice that if they're boxed. I guess it depends on whether they come with a system or a bundle of games.

zmbdog Posted March 10, 2010 Author Share Posted March 10, 2010 It's the white one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cparsley Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 It's the white one. So what you have as an ECS (It's what Mattel released to get the FCC off their back of the $10,000-a-day fines for not releasing the keyboard component). It goes usually about $50-$70 out of the box, and $100-$150 in the box. Still nice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't understand why people always throw out the boxes. These people kept everything else (overlays, manuels, even the store receipts from '83/'84!) but no boxes.
