 ===== Controls =====
+Intellivision had a complex controller with
+  * 4 side-located action buttons (two for left handed players, two for right handed players). Top two side buttons are electronically the same, giving three distinct buttons.
+  * a 12-button numeric keypad with plastic overlays that slide into place as an extra layer on the keypad to show game-specific key functions
+It's therefore recommended to use a bezel from [[https://github.com/thebezelproject/BezelProject|thebezelproject]] to display those layouts, and to also display the game controller tattoo (available in ''V39+''). More information on [[https://wiki.batocera.org/decoration|decorations]].
+The controller was often considered as a very bad one.
 Here are the default Mattel Intellivision's controls shown on a [[:configure_a_controller|Batocera Retropad]]:
