So what do you think? Was Intellivision superior to Atari back in the days?

Looks like Intellivision was the better of two.

Intellivision was technically superior, but Atari had better marketing. It's just like the later VHS/Betamax wars. (And those Intellivision controllers were just bizarre; you can't argue with that.)

The first time I even heard of intellivision was oh, a couple of years ago?

Atari definetely had better marketing (at first anyway). Too bad that later was guided by monkeys.

Eh, I always thought the VHS/Beta wars were won because of the porn industry's adoption of VHS, not marketing as such.

But the intelevision's controller is kinda wierd. Wen't down in history's 10 worst controllers list.
