Highlights

This was developed to address something that I noticed and others as well with the Intellivision Sprint. A great controller, but a small but important detail was left out. The controller has a perfectly flat back which makes pressing fire buttons just not have the same feel and comfort that many of us are accustomed too. So I came up with this accessory.

Slide it down over your Sprint controller and booya! You now have that nice familiar fire button feel you remember. I'm going to be making some style improvements over the pictures initially shown, but rest assured these are well tested and sturdy products that will be tested on my own controllers before I ship them out to you.

I made an enhancement to the design to allow your Sprint controllers to get power while not plugged in through an extension cable. You can also reach the sync button. Plug it into your Sprint without having to remove the Offshoot.

Another refinement was to make it easy to insert / remove overlays. the original picture shown has a more boxy appearance. I'll get some new pictures soon.

So I have an optional 20" power cord extension option available you can add to your purchase.

Enjoy!

NOTE: This is just for the Offshoot. The controller is not part of the purchase. Just had to say it, because, you know.. it's the Internet. :)

Perfect! Fixed the issue with making the new controllers feel EXACTLY like the original ones!

Great addition to add the grip. Protip: I, too, at first found it hard to remove, but the trick seems to be to pull it down towards the right side of the controller when removing, then it slides right off.

I highly recommend this if you own an Intellivision! Was exactly as described. Worth the money.
