Rare Emerson Arcadia related console with a great futuristic design sold by the coffee manufacturer Eduscho/Tchibo in Germany. The system was sold in a short one or two week Special-Sale in the mid 80ties. A few were also sold in shops.

It uses the same cartridges than the Schmid but sold only 4 of them under their own brand. Systems with this technology (and using at least ROM compatible cartridges) were sold worldwide under many different brands: Emerson Arcadia (USA, Australia, Canada), Advision Home Arcade (France), Bandai Arcadia (Japan), GiG Electronics Leonardo (Italy), Hanimex HMG-2650, Leisure-Dynamics Leisure-Vision (USA), Intercord XL 2000 system, Eduscho / Tchibo Tele-Fever, Cosmos, Schmidt TVG 2000 (Germany)...
