Nintendo Penguin #1 Posted February 5, 2003 So I was a my great aunts house the other day and I opened the closet to see a telstar system. I have never played one of these. This thing is absolutely mint and still in the box. I don't think it has ever been used! The box is in perfect condition! Are these worth anything? Can anyone direct me to a website with more information on these? Thanks! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MrRetroGamer #2 Posted February 5, 2003 Which system, the triangle shaped one? Or a standard "pong" type? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nintendo Penguin #3 Posted February 5, 2003 I will have to take another look.... I beleive it is the triangle. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
joeybastard #4 Posted February 5, 2003 The triangle one was very cool. I was so jealous of this kid, I was forced to hang around with due to my parents, because he had one. He hated it but I thought that steering wheel was the coolest. That spoiled jerk eventually had a VCS, Intellivision, AND an O2. Man, I still hate that guy.

Artlover #11 Posted February 10, 2003 I just bought a Coleco "Telstar Alpha" pong game. $1.70. Works fine. Has 4 'games". Tennis, Hockey, Handball, Jai Alai. I love these really old RF devices, before the FCC started digging into them all about shielding and all that crap. This Telstar game has a crystal clear picture via RF. So what if all my neighbors can watch me play on their TV's too. Runs off 6 'C' size batteries too. It's kool. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
