Hübsches deutsches Pong der beliebten Firma Interton. Das Gerät erschien auch in Frankreich unter den beiden Labels Thomson und Continental Edison. Das Gerät bietet das typische, flache schwarze Interton Design. Auch in England sind Interton Video 2400 Systeme aufgetaucht.

the main particularity of the system is that despite the fact that it uses a "common" AY-3-8500 GI chipset, if offers 5 games, one more than what the chip can normally do. The bonus game is a soccer game but here the computer plays the oponnent! This must be an electronic hack done "outside" the main chipset. This kind of hack can be found on some other pong systems...

For the 5-players soccer game (in fact 2 paddles for left player and 3 for right one), it is a non-documented game. It is normaly possible to play it on any pong system (GI chipset powered) if you can manage to not select any game (game switch must not indicate any game). Some systems, like the Interton Video 2400 if I recall correctly can play this game though... I don't know what differences has the AY-3-8500-7 compared to the standard AY-3-8500 version... I know there is also a AY-3-8500-1x but I have no info about it. It is certainly a question of internal revision.
