In 1984 the company was named Spectravideo Inter-national and was represented in all of Europe, US, Australia, South Africa and Israel. This also led to a change of all the model names, using SVI in front of the model numbers. Rumors are saying the model numbers were picked based on their goodness in Chinese numerology. That is why many of them contain the number 8. This joystick from 1990 branded as "Ni-5" could probably refer to the first two letters in the word Nintendo.
