I feel like collecting for the Atari 2600 and while I have other systems like the Sega Genesis, I would like to have your input on what system you think goes well with it…maybe the Intellivision or Colecovision due to being within the same era as the woodgrain or black bread box?
I thought the question was building up to a punchline.
I’d say the ZX Spectrum has similar vibes.
The Genesis pairs well with anything.
You can use Genesis controllers on the 2600 too.
Good point! And both also work (mostly) with a Commodore 64.

That’s good to know.
My C64 survived a bunch of this abuse, but I would hate for the remaining ones to suffer!
I’d go for the ColecoVision. The controller on the intellevision is strange, as are the graphics. Maybe that’s your thing, but as a kid I always wanted the coleco. Especially if you can find the racing controller for Turbo.
If I were to get an Intellivision, I’d spring for the Intellevision II model. Much cooler looking design and takes up less space. The only problem is if you get the speech module, finding one to match the later design language is harder.
The Colecovision is basically the Intellivisions cooler cousin.
