MBO Schmidt & Niederleitner GmbH & Co. KG, a german manufacturer for measuring systems and small electronic items also tried to get their share of the videogame market. The teleball console is the first of a large serie of systems named "tele-ball" with numbers ranging from 1 to 9. Though they had some cosmetic differences, all these systems were very close to each other in terms of functionality. The Tele-Ball is the most basic system of the whole range, offering only the 4 classic pong games in black & white.The teleball is licensed by MAGNAVOX.

One of the nicest consoles in our collection: it uses fine woodgrain (imitated) and polished aluminium parts from high quality. The two big silver dials on the front panel are used to switch the system on/off and to select games. The Tele-Ball IV is the colour version of the original Tele-Ball, with the four same games in colour. It even uses the same case with minor differences.

It was sold in the USA by 1st Generation Pong System as Tele-Match 4
