If you're asking that on this forum, then clearly you haven't been here very long. Our geekiness knows no bounds. :p

That slot in the top looks like exactly the right size for a pickle. Is it a pickle launcher?

I have no clue what the Intellvision is. My first console was the Nintendo 64, waaay after that thing. I got my 64 after they stopped making games as well (like 2000 or something).

Pickles, really, it looks more like a pop-tart launcher.

My first console was the Super Nintendo- not because I'm that young, I was 8 when I got it, but that was the first system we could afford.

Omgosh, I feel so old. :oops:

Ehhh... risking geek credibility but... that console wasn't offically a 2600, (at that point) - it wasn't until the all-black version came out that they formally became 2600s.

Ohhh, I know that one! It's the brainwashing device!

*eyes glaze over*

:bow: @ Nintendo, our mightiest bringer of video game consoles and creator of the best games in existence! :bow:

*eyes return to normal*

Err... what were we talking about again? I blacked out for a moment there.
