APF TV Fun

The APF TV Fun was an early PONG clone manufactured by APF Electronics Inc. in the United Kingdom in 1976. It featured four built in games, a built in speaker, and two controller knobs. It could be powered by either the included AC adapter or by using 6 C size batteries.

The TV Fun package was the first excursion of APF into the video game market, APF was formerly a calculator and other small electronics developer. While the TV Fun had only limited success, it was later followed up by the much more successful APF Imagination Machine a few years later. The TV Fun included just four titles, and had no way of adding more through a cartridge system. Those four titles were Tennis, Hockey, Single Handball, and Squash - all of which were variations on the typical pong formula.
