A friend of mine had an Intellivision and I kept asking for one, but I had an Atari 2600 and was continuously reminded of how much my dad spent on that. Finally, when the Intellivision II came out (smaller, white, coiled cords that could be stuffed mostly back into the system when you weren't playing) I got one for either XMas or a birthday.

'Snafu' was fantastic (if you have a mac, track down Tron GL at macgamefiles, it's not the same, but still fun and free), but I really got into 'Discs of Tron', 'Swords & Serpents' and 'AD&D Treasure Of Tarmin' the most. That one I know I played so much I wore out the overlays. It was such a new style of game. Also enjoyable were 'Dragonfire', 'Beauty and the Beast' and 'Microsurgeon'.

The disc on the Int2 controller was done better, but then they had to go and coil the cords so they were shorter than on the older system. The coil was so tight that on certain 2 player games when this were getting exciting someone would inevitably yank the system to the floor.

Still, excellent classic system, and one of the reasons I'm a game addict now.
