Description
This tabletop, Computer Perfection, electronic game was released by Lakeside Games in 1979. It features a blue, translucent, domed cover on a white coloured console base. Opening the lid activates the on/off switch to access four simple games driven by a single-chip microprocessor. The electronics were developed by Ralph Henry Baer, often credited as the inventor of the video game, through his association with Marvin Glass & Associates (MGA). The futuristic, sci-fi design has appeared in the film 'The Ice Pirates' in 1984 as well as the TV show 'Buck Rogers in the 25th century' in 1981. It is injection moulded and manufactured by Action GT.
