Intellivision, take two

MCV reports that the fondly remembered Intellivision 16bit console, originally released in 1980, is to make a comeback thanks to Character Options. The company is releasing two hand-held joypads that connect directly into the television – one containing 10 games for £14.99 and the other with 25 games for £29.99. Some of the titles to be packaged with the product include Star Strike, Night Stalker, Space Armada, Astrosmash, Sub Hunt, Thundercastle and Pinball. It’s quite a shame that the console’s original and quite ludicrous controller won’t be making a comeback as well.
