| The Radofin Tele‑Sports is a first-generation home video game console released around 1976–1977 by Radofin Electronics Ltd., a British–Hong Kong electronics manufacturer. It is a Pong-style system built around the General Instruments AY‑3‑8500 “Ball & Paddle” chipset, which provided six built-in games including tennis/Pong, soccer/hockey, squash, practice, and two shooting titles. The console features paddle controllers and outputs video via RF to a television, with built-in speaker for audio. It also includes mechanical score sliders on the case for tracking player scores. This console was one of many AY‑3‑8500‑based machines produced at the time; the chipset simplified design and reduced costs, enabling widespread adoption. The Tele‑Sports typically offered four games, though versions with six games and even a light gun accessory existed. Radofin released several variants, including Tele‑Sports Mini and cartridge-based models like Tele‑Sports III and IV under the PC‑50x family. |
