Hardware Description
Telstar Colortron (model no. 6135) is the first model of 1978 and the only one to use an evolution of the GU chip, the AY-3-8510. It’s even the first Telstar to display color graphics using a single chip. It offered 4 games, with more polished visuals and a less odd sound. Some improvements were made for example in the selection of games (push button instead of a switch). The Colortron doesn’t need an AC adapter since it used two 9V batteries.
