Celebrating the 45th anniversary of its release, Atari announced that their new Intellivision Sprint gaming console will release December 5 – with pre-orders starting today!
The first Intellivision console (where does the time go?!) the Intellivision Sprint is brought to you by the legends at Atari.
On that note, the Intellivision Sprint retains the authentic look and feel of the original console, all while being modernized with features like HDMI support, wireless controllers, and a USB-A port for library expansion.
The Intellivison Sprint will include 45 built-in games, including Boulder Dash and Shark! Shark!, along with classic Intellivision sports games, strategy games, and other titles.
Adding to the experience, the Intellivision Sprint will also feature new overlays for each game!
Matt Burnett, VP of Strategic Operations at Atari, said the following:
“We’re thrilled to celebrate Intellivision’s 45th anniversary, and what better way to honor it than by bringing back this innovative console for fans to experience once again?
Becoming caretakers of such an important brand is both a big responsibility and a very fun expansion of our work at Atari.”
Ben Jones, Commercial Director of Plaion, added:
“It has been rewarding to apply some of the learnings from our successful collaboration on the Atari+ retro consoles to the Intellivison Sprint.
We’re proud to bring a modern-take on this ground-breaking console to Intellivision fans and collectors.”
Attending the Portland Retro Gaming Expo at the Oregon Convention Center this weekend (October 17-19)? One can get a chance to try out the new Intellivision Sprint at the Atari/AtariAge booth, located at spot #112.
