-    text: The video game came out through Tandy between 1976-early 80''s. I would guess if the box and instructions and all the connectors were with it could fetch a couple of hundred at best

-    text: I have a Raido Shack T.V. scoreboard that I dug out of the attic so my grand kids could play with it on Christmas. I set it up and it works like the day we bought it. Thats the problem, we can''t remember when we bought it new, and there is no date on the box or on the instuction sheet. It''s a hand held. Anyone have an idea of the age?

-    text: I didn''t have this model - I had one that had control levers - mounted on separate rectangular controllers - 3 or 4 games - Pong - Double-Pong? - Hockey - and Soccer? - in some ways it seems better - more advanced than this - but I know I got it for Christmas in the late 70''s (77?) and it cost under $20 - which was the family limit for Christmas gifts - I know most people would think we were poor - but I knew other people who got less or nothing, and I never felt bad about getting less than most of my neighbors. I learned to play pong with myself - left hand versus right - full English - fastest speed - in my family, this was the toughest opponent I could find.

-    text: Hey, it's great to see this! I remember my uncle bought one of these for my brother & I in between the Sears Pong game & the Atari... loved it because it was easy to travel with and it had the target shooting game! The gun itself is still in my parents house as a toy for the grandkids! Killer!

-    text: Wow, I had this as a kid, back before we bought our Atari 2600. The gun wasn't much fun, but there were a few tricks to do with the master controller. If you adjusted the main game selector knob and placed it between two games, then the master control would get an extra paddle on that particular game. I think Hockey was my favorite.
