      Mattel Intellivision programmer and owner of Intellivision Productions has passed away from heart failure. He was probably one of the the coolest guys in the business. Everything he did was out of love for the intellivision and its fans. He didnt run around suing everyone for intellectual property rights, because against his lawyers wishes he cared more about the fans and many friends he has made through the years. He will be missed by many in the retro gaming community. Rest in Peace my friend.

        Very sad. He always seemed like the nicest guy. I remember being amazed that the Intellivision brand had such a huge presence in 'Grandma's Boy'. I don't think it had ever been featured so prominently in TV or film before, or since.
