The Gamatic 7600 is a classic pong system sold worldwide under many different brands, as the [Grandstand T.V. Game Model 2000](/museum/grandstand-t-v-game-model-2000/) for example, or the [Univox 41N](/museum/univox-41n/).

The system itself seems to have been made in Korea. The electronic board is labeled "F'GAMATIC-7600". Indeed many Gamatic 7600 systems identical to this one can be found worldwide, the earliest one being a japanese Gamatic 7600 system released in 1976.

The case design is not particularly original: black rectangle with two detachable controllers and a wide control panel at the top. The controllers are also rectangular with a dial to move the bat on screen and a red button each, one to serve (left player) and the other to reset the game (right player).

As almost all systems powered by the TMS-1965 chipset from Texas Instruments, the Univox 41N offers 4 pong games : Hockey, Pelote, Tennis and Entrainement delivered by this specialised chip (the TMS-1965 was pin-to-pin compatible with the more popular AY-3-8500 chip from General Instruments)

On the control panel can be found the usual setting switches: ball speed (slow/fast), automatic service (on/off), game selection, rebound angle (20°/40°), paddle size (small/big) and power switch. The system can be powered by six CM2 battery cells or through an external power supply (9v DC, 360 mW).
