Game Cartridges

English

HGS - TELESPORT - module based console. The control panel on the console is composed of 10 buttons to select the different games offered by each cartridge (10 being the maximum). Difficulty switches, power switch and a start button can also be found. There is even a volume control slider which is quite uncommon on this type of system, and very useful too. Systems with green and orange buttons can be found. 7 game cartridges (maybe 8) where available for the TELESPORT console. It is preselected on TV channel 3.

The Joysticks are very reliable and have the same gameplay feeling like the later ATARI 2600 joysticks but they have no automatic middle point adjustment.

The system was also sold by Soundic in Germany as "SPORTS" programmierbares Farbfernsehspiel.
