"Atari just bought Intellivision, putting an end to the very first console war."
https://www.engadget.com/atari-just-bought-intellivision-putting-an-end-to-the-very-first-console-war-172320606.html
Real retro-veterans of course know that the first console war was between Atari 2600 and the Philips Videopac, known in the US as the Magnavox Odyssey.
Later, the Mattel IntelliVision was the arch-enemy of the CBS ColecoVision.
I owned an Atari 2600 and later a CBS ColecoVision. Precious childhood memories. 💚
