MBO Teleball-Cassetten-Game

The Teleball Cassette I has ten small buttons, horizontally arranged, used to select the different games offered by the inserted cartridge. The playing options are activated by the several switches. It has a springy protection lid for the cartridge slot. It uses joysticks, detachable and connected to the system through connectors placed on each side. According to the manual it is capable to display 4 colors: green, white, yellow and blue. The cartridge released are the classic ones for these systems using cartridges based on General Instrument chips: In these chipsets were "ready to run" games and pong manufacturers had almost only to put these chipsets into their system cases to make them work! The cartridge released are the classic ones for these systems using cartridges based on General Instrument chips: Ball games, Motorcycle, Car racing, Submarine, Super wipeout and maybe Tank battle and Shooting gallery. These are generic English titles. Real titles are in German. Concerning the Tank Battle cartridge (called PANZER-SCHLACHT), the problem is that this game requires digital controllers as opposed to the analog joystick of the system. Some GI based systems offer optional numeric keypads to play this game, but it is not sure that they were available for the MBO Teleball-Cassette I. Thus it is not proven that this game was released for this system. On the box is a game mentioned that makes use of a lightgun. It's not clear if the MBO Tele-Cassette 1 can use one, and thus if there is such a cartridge for this system. This system was also marketed as: Palladium - Tele-Cassetten-Game and Hanimex - Optim 600.
