My guess it was done by the 80s :P --- End quote --- APF electronics went bankrupt in 1983 do to the crash, the last item they made was APF mathemagician in 1980 and APF imagination machine 2 was gonna be released in late 83 to early 84, so i would say it was discontinued between 1981 - 82 APF is one those companies ware all info on them disappeared some how --- End quote --- Thanks for the info. ;D --- Quote from: badATchaos on May 24, 2014, 09:44:57 pm ---Do you publish these reviews anywhere else? They're decent. When you hit the 10,000 item mark you should make a book. ;) --- End quote --- ATM no, I've been thinking of doing something on youtube. I used to review video games for a website back in the 90s - early 2000s. right now I'm excited i'm getting close to the 9000 mark. Funny thing if I all list my swag and magazines I'd be there now. I saw in a magazine that the guy who has the record for biggest game collection atm is over 11,000. :o |

I'd love to see full video reviews on these rare systems, with gameplay footage. |

Hey - I just snagged one of these bad boys off of eBay but it has no power source. Only thing I can think of would be to buy a second (preferably non-working) one and cannibalize the cord and re-sell it. Then it hit me - I wonder if they used the same power cord as APF TV Fun (or another pong clone if they made it). Can anyone confirm/disconfirm this? |
