I've got an old intellevision gaming system I desperately want to use but the devise that hooks it up only attaches to older TVs. It looks like a box with two antennae that attach to two screws on the back of older model tvs. New tvs have no screws to do that. Anyone know for sure what I need to do? Perhaps there is an adapter of some sort? I have sought help from electronics stores and I keep getting useless suggestions. I don't want to go on another goose chase - so please only serious answers. I really want to play my old games. Merry Christmas!

i was going to search ebay for the RF adapter i had to buy in 1982, but the other Jim has a good idea
on ebay, the item that's listed the most is a cable that replaces the switch box to fit to newer TVs
here's the section of ebay for you - http://video-games.search.ebay.com/intellivision_Accessories_W0QQsacatZ49220

Go to Radio Shack or another good electronics store and ask for a matching transformer. It has the screw terminals that will connect to your intellivision, and ends with a short length of coaxial cable. The co-ax cable should connect to the RF input of the newer TV's.
