The Interton Video 2000 is a extremely rare first-generation home video game console released in 1975 by Interton in Germany.[1][2][3][4] The console turns itself on automatically when a cartridge is inserted.[1]
The Interton Video 2000 contains 14 cmos chips, making it relatively advanced for its time. It was followed by the dedicated Interton Video 2400 in 1976.
It used discrete logic based cassettes like the more famous Philips tele spiel es 2201 (from Philips Tele-Game series) from 1975 made by Philips.
The gtv 881 also used discrete logic cassettes two[5].The Interton video 2000 also had a clone called the muiltijungos tele tennis [6] from 1976 and it had more games and it was Spanish.
