Intellivision but that’s mostly nostalgia from the set my dad has. Pitfall was always my favorite, and I remember Microsurgery being a confusing clusterfuck. I have a few Atari 2600s and I just feel like the game play on those is boring and repetitive.

For me it’s the Intellivision with its controllers that were attached with phone cords and those plastic inserts that would customise the controller for each game.

I think we only had one game, Triple Action (although only the tanks and biplanes were worth playing).

My parents’ house still has more vintage tech than most computer museums.

Magnavox Odyssey 2 - quest for the rings was the most amazing game of that generation

It was definitely in the acrchives a year or so ago but just fyi it had a whole physical board and items for the full game so just playing the video game just lets you play instances really.

Magnavox Odyssey, Atari Home Pong, Coleco Telstar - that sort of thing. Mostly with built in games.
