He didn’t say what emulator he's using but there's something wrong with it. It's causing screen tearing in Motocross and River Raid and the Pacman title screen is messed up.

edit: Intellivision Pole Position came out in 1987, by that time nobody cared. Although their Commando conversion is not bad. For Intellivision driving games, check out Auto Racing.

Auto Racing. Thanks for that, completely new to this console. If you have any other game game recommendations I'm all ears. I'm just using Retroarch for emulation and the default emulator.

It's tough to map the Intellivision keypad using Retroarch. See if Deadly Discs and AD&D work with Retroarch. For other games you might be better off with MAME emulation on a PC. Some games like Space Battle and Baseball you really need an Intellivision controller.

Some of the best games are two players only e.g. sports games, Sea Battle, Triple Action Biplanes, Utopia

For shooters, there's Dreadnaught Factor, Worm Whomper, Beamrider, Space Battle, Space Spartans, Hover Force

Arcade style, there's Thunder Castle, Burgertime, Deadly Discs, Night Stalker, Shark Shark, Bumpnjump, Thin Ice

Early simulations, Sub Hunt, B17 Bomber, Truckin

RPG style, Treasure of Tarmin, Tower of Doom, AD&D (more action adventure)
