Nice! Mine's NTSC and I need to build a game cable so I can plug it into
the tv card in my peecee. Wouldn't surprise me if it was dead.
It's been disassembled here:

'all' that circuitry can generate is 2 player objects, a ball object and
optionally a net object down the middle. Top stuff!
Cheers

I have one of these, but I'm missing most of
the overlays. Also the
rifle for some of the games is long since trashed. Some day
I'll dig
the thing out and see if the system itself still
works.
I got one of mine working recently. It was pretty cool to
see it actually work for the first time.
