What one-of-a-kind Intellivision items do you have?

Kind of OT - it would be really cool* to see a real Intellivision utility/tool belt as a collector item. Something to hold carts, spare Flashback controllers, a way to quickly draw/stow overlays, Eye drop bottle container, and a candy bar holder.

 

 

 

* “cool” is subjective.

 

And your reading glasses for those of us who are too old and can no longer see the overlays...

Necro-bump, but this is something that I think is an Intellivision item.

 

Has anyone else seen one of these?

It says 'Happy Trails' on it... and I don't think Happy Trails was released on any platform other than Intellivision.

 

It's thin metal, and just plain shiny silver on the back.

w00t! Do you have any history behind it? Was it a giveaway at a trade show or did it come with a letter or the patch or anything?

 

I was told the one I have was meant to hang from a store shelf. I believe it's a sales prop. Yours looks just like mine with a tall stem at the top of the badge.

The Intellivision Flashback is a one-kind for me as I never owned an Intellivision. I picked this up used for $10 works fine. It's lots of fun and brings back many memories as prior to this the last time I played Intellivision was at a friend's house in the late 80's.

Somewhere in my archives I still have the Intellivision II that I modified to double its vertical display resolution.

I never completed the mod, but I'm sure it could be refined into something that would work on a daughtercard. In theory you could both double the vertical resolution of the graphics tiles and have up to 256 tiles worth of GRAM, with just a bit of external glue. You would need a socketed STIC though, so you could move it to a daughtercard.

Remember when we used to do homebrews on EPROM? I still have the prototyping/testing boards...

And some EPROMs that went with them...

And then there was the JLP prototype, complete with an Intellivoice abused as a breakout board.

That's a magnet board. I've seen it once on Ebay. Seller wanted 100€ for it. Was too much for me.

The board that I saw had magnets in the form of the Star Strike spaceships with it.
