1) This unit is label "APF tv fun" pn the
front. It has a knob with fou
game selection possibilities, on/off switch/ start button, angle settin
bat size setting, and ball speed setting. It appears this is an old
Tennis/baseball type of game unit. It also appears that the actual
controllers on on the main unit in the form of knobs. It saw it was mad
in Japan by APF Electronics, Inc. although I can't find a year. Could
anyone help there? It also says underneath TV FUN Model No. 401A and
that's the oldie of the bunch! Early game machines from the mid '70 were
the tennis/pong type and used a few chips. their logic was a mix of
digital and analog. My guess would be 75-77 timeframe.
It would be some years before the tvgames would go the microprocessor
route to get the the first ataris and company.
