I had Intellivision and Intellivision II in the 80's and I'm sure I plugged the voice module into the Intellivision II and it worked. Are you sure you know that it doesn't work because I remember using it. Also the Intellivision II could use joystick extension cords that were made for Atari. I bought a set and could lie comfortably on the sofa while playing, with the Intellivision II sitting about 6 feet away.

they were like keyboards for pc games. The games might need the extra button for random things, since they didn't usually use a menu where you scrolled down. Some of them had overlays where the numbers would be the main controllers. Basically things were wild and the format wasn't codified. Atari helped shaped controls that didn't rely on it which makes the jaguar design even stranger.

I spent my childhood in India and I didn't knew difference between Atari, Nintendo, Sega....etc. until I came up to Canada. We used to buy one video game (which didn't had any brand) and its cartridge used to contain game from almost all different kind of console. I remember super mario, sonic and burger king (shown in this video) all in one cartridge. That time I didn't even knew these were console exclusive games. Now I understand somebody might have been illegally producing them then.

As others have said long ago - the Intellivoice module _does_ work on the Intellivision II, it just doesn't *look* right. Unlike the later expansions - the "System Changer" (Atari 2600 clone that plugs in to the side of the I2,) and "Entertainment Computer System" (a pretty crap "home computer" add-on that adds a tiny amount more RAM, and two more controller ports so you could plug in the computer keyboard or music keyboard accessories.) The Intellivoice never received an update to have that 80s light gray plastic with red accents look. (Apparently one product catalog showed an updated version - but it was never actually built. The photographed version was just a painted wood mockup!)

The incompatibility between the intellivision 1 and 2 consists of a modified "EXEC" chip. It affects Donkey Kong, Carnival, and Venture as well as Mattel's Math Fun (and another one I can't remember). Intellivision 3 is just a rebadged intellivison I with a power LED (and other minor cosmetic effects). Also...the Intellivision II _IS_ compativble with Intellivoice (and its games) :)

Yes. Wico produced a replacement controller for the Intellivision which included a joystick. You'll pay a small fortune for one though. There are no electronics in the controller itself, just flex circuits with contacts, so theoretically it would be possible to create an adapter to use Atari controllers. Of course you'd only have 8 directions, not 16, and one fire button. Plus, you'd need the Intv. controller for entering anything on the keypad.

Actually, the Intellivoice didn't work with the ORIGINAL Intellivision without a hardware mod. The Intellivision II was designed to be compatible with it right out of the box. The reason why some games don't work on the II is that Mattel intentionally changed the firmware to try and lock out third-party titles. The companies adapted and it was mostly only a few early Coleco games that don't work. The changes caused some glitches though, even in some Mattel games.

intellivision 2 is the best to me. its small and have detachable controllers. it also has a power light. the only thing is that it dont support coleco games. the intellivision 1 had overheating issues and the controllers were not as durable from my experience on intellivision 1 and the pro version too. if you like retro gaming , intellivision is a must. it has some cool games and it has those unique controllers which are very different from any other systems. my favorite games are dungeons and dragons treasure of tarmin , astrosmash , world series major league baseball , lock n chase , b-17 bomber , bump n jump. one thing you need to know is that some games require special accessory like the ecs computer module and also the intellivoice.
