Hardware Description

The Philips N20 is a classic pong system offering the 6 games of the widely used General Instruments AY-3-8500 dedicated chip. The black & white games are: Tennis, Football (soccer), Pelote Basque (squash), Exercice (squash practice), Tir au pigeon (skeet) and Tir de cible (shooting on moving target). The two last games are only playable with the optional light gun. The most particular feature of the N20 is its typical 70's cosmetic design, especially the controllers. They don't look like any other controllers but play surprisingly well!
