This is a handheld pong, since everything is contained in one handheld controller.

It is the same system as the Radio-Shack TV Scoreboard. See [this entry](/museum/radio-shack-tv-scoreboard-handheld/) for more info. However, the system pictured here does not have the shooting games implemented, it's the 4 game version.
