Talk:Coleco Telstar series

This should be moved to Coleco Telstar, because the article refers to the series of Telstar units and not the cartridges for the Telstar Arcade --24.114.252.183 06:10, 9 Feb 2005 (UTC).

Hmm, just doing a bit of undisambiguating, and have moved the handball link to American_handball. I've never seen the game, so I thought it best to check it's the right one. Please correct if not. LeeG 16:07, 4 June 2006 (UTC)

Coleco Telstar varaints=color
If I am not wrong the Coleco Telstar color variants like the Telstar Colormatic, Telstar Colortron and Telstar Gemini are some of the first consoles which show color, and the only first generation consoles which show color. mcjakeqcool Mcjakeqcool (talk) 12:29, 26 December 2008 (UTC)
 * No, Atari's Pong's were color as well. --Marty Goldberg (talk) 14:09, 26 December 2008 (UTC)
 * What?! Atari's Pong was in color, how I thought that game was in black and white! mcjakeqcool Mcjakeqcool (talk) 17:34, 26 March 2009 (UTC)

Telstar Alpha variant?
I had a Coleco Telstar unit that looked identical to the Telstar Alpha except it had a jai alia game substituted for squash. Wouldn't doubt the game was the same, just named differently. Internet research leads me to believe it was a (possibly rare) model 6030. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Xot (talk • contribs) 12:51, 30 March 2009 (UTC)

I may need to look this up. mcjakeqcool Mcjakeqcool (talk) 15:21, 4 April 2009 (UTC)

Jai Alai
I, too, had the variant on the Alpha, which can be found on the Pong site mentioned at the bottom of the article:

http://www.pong-story.com/coleco_alpha.htm

Here is text from the above link: "The Telstar Alpha (model 6030) was released in 1977. It is a classic from Coleco, and uses the AY-3-8500 game chip. The system plays 4 games in three difficulty levels. It is the successor of the three older models (Telstar, Telstar Classic and Telstar Ranger), and only differs by its case and fourth game (JAI-ALAI, also known as SQUASH). Like the first Telstar, this system was sold in large quantities as it was cheap. It was also released in Europe as the "Telstar Alpha Europa"." —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.74.252.74 (talk) 18:58, 3 August 2010 (UTC)

Missing informations
The article is missing a few informations, mostly about history. You could take over a few informations from the French article. Maxeto0910 (talk) 22:02, 6 July 2019 (UTC)
