I would assume so.
I've never actually seen an Intellivision cart, but I'm pretty sure I have some TI carts with retracting dust covers. So I'm guessing on a couple and informed-guessing on a couple.

I have a TI cart, but I think its wider than the picture shows, it might still be it though.

I looked up a few pictures for TI-99 carts(I've only ever seen one, and that was a year ago), and it didn't look like that to me, but few websites show the bottom of cartridges I've noticed.

Yeah, I was looking for my cart but I cant find it. I got it for $1 and though it would be worth it.

Yeah, my TI-99/4A collection is in a case in my parents attic and has been for probably eight years. I'm just trying to go from memory. Also, Perphary already hit the VCS, which would have been my first answer as well, so I figured a couple of struggling guesses wouldn't hurt anything.

Correct. VCS works too.

You guys crack me up. Surely a good number of you have a 2600 cart or two you can look at instead of wildly guessing. :lol:

I did specifically use an official Atari cart, not a 5rd party which can look a little different.

No. My wife and share a 530 square foot apartment, so I only keep a couple of consoles with me. The rest are 200 miles away. Most of my collection is currently inaccessible.

I figured they were going with the hope and pray that it's not the VCS route.
