First machine with games that diesplayed text, first videogame easter egg, lots of firsts. It died after about 30 games or so. I think Odessey II (the one with keyboard) lived longer and had more games made for it.
While I'm sitting here I have the 'Quadadoodle' game running that randomly does a color kaleidescope thing on the screen, looks cool on a roundie (the machine has a incredible color palette of EIGHT colors! Wooooooh!
