I remember feeding machines a quarter at a time for the pleasure to play these games. Pong for the TV was a good $150 and ran on channel 3 (there was no "video" button). It was a sight to see something on the TV that I put there.

We need a moment of silence.

The boy caved and got one of the new ones a while back. They're identical, except that they take AA's instead of a 9V.

i got mines before they released the new ones, wish i would have waited since i paid a pretty penny for it :(
i dont know they came with AA's, aah i guess 9V are going the way of the 8 track.
one of the first things i did was test the battery with my tounge before putting it in :)
