I've got something like this somewhere. I'm not sure if it has Pong on it though.

When I used to go to Skegness as a child I'd to pick one of them up every year (Because they'd break after 2 days of use) they're all non original games, have glitches and are really quite boring after 20 minutes.

Mine still works, you're just a vandal. :P But yeah, the games were pretty shit, I got bored pretty soon too.

It's not a COMPUTER game you understand. It pre-dates any significant home-micro-computers and is basically one chip with lots of analogue computer type circuitry, i.e amplifiers and comparators.

I opened up the keyboard to my C64 a while back and was quite surprised to find what looked like a bloody great valve in it.

We had a Tank Battle game too when I was little.

I did merely leave the batteries in the pad so long the acid leaked into the pad.

Hmm T62 Vs M60 tank must be about 1975-1980?

As that was the year the US switched to the M1.

What would you classify it as then, if not a computer game?

And you were always eagerly awaiting the latest composition by Herr Mozart.

Oi!
It wasn't new when I played it!
They came out in the '70s and my dad got them free from work, so we still had them in the '80s.

Mr 'I had the internet from birth' spoiled little Lord Fauntleroy!

Laughing out loud

I wish I was a Lord. :(

(Not a gaylord.)

I'd hesitate to buy something from people with such a loose grasp of the English language.

F**k me. Twenty seconds and I had to close it.

Great to see a couple of young girls trying to break into politics. Such brave souls should be applauded, not vilified.

That is truly awful.

Although I think the Rook put it better.

The 10 seconds they played on today's Daily Politics was FAR more than enough for me. Speculation is that it could be a Labour counter-campaign.
