Some of those console lengths were really long.
Dreamcast from RedSpot games on Wind and Water: Puzzle Battles: This is a CD-ROM based product and might not be compatible with some Dreamcast™ consoles manufactured after October 2000. This software is not officially licensed, designed, manufactured, distributed or endorsed by Sega. -- This sounds like high end homebrew/aftermarket rather than an official game.
NeoGeo didn't really have much of a life to begin with -- so it is hard to truly capture its lifespan. It is the real-to-real tape of game systems.
The Intellivision had a 12-13 year lifespan. The test marketing was 1979 (some games carry 1978 copyright dates). The last game by INTV (the successor to Mattel) was 1990. The Atari 2600 was even longer. I have games from Atari from 1977 to 1990. Both are the only three-different-decade systems.

 I am Mario.I like to jump around, and would lead a fairly serene and aimless existence if it weren't for my friends always getting into trouble. I love to help out, even when it puts me at risk. I seem to make friends with people who just can't stay out of trouble. Wii Friend Code: 1624 6601 1126 1492 NNID: Mike_INTV |
