Comment Coleco Telstar Arcade (Score 1) 718

My father brought home the Coleco Telstar Arcade when I was probably about 5 or 6. It was my first real video game. The games were basically three types - Pong-based sports games that used the two paddle knobs (the only difference between some of them was the color of the background), a driving game, and shooting games where you had to use the light gun to shoot a white square or some other blob that appeared briefly on the tv screen. I think we had 3 of the 4 cartridges. I bet my parents still have the console too. It was actually a lot of fun, especially the pong-varients. My sister and I used to waste a lot of time playing, although it was kind of a pain in the butt to set up and attach to the TV - we were too short and so we had to have Dad set it up for us.
