So, I bought a Bentley.

I finally picked up that Bentley Compu-vision, not Pong Pong console. It came out in 83 so it was very late to the Pong Game party. I have to say after playing it when I got it home I find it very entertaining and enjoyable to play. Yes it is complete in box, the only thing I do not have is the power adapter, which was sold separately. It runs on 4 AA batteries. The Controls are very responsive and the switches and buttons do not feel cheap.

I also got the Video game center I wanted. Although the cover is cracked but I think I have found someone that can reapir it so it does not get worse. These things are hard to find with the tops because most of them broke. So, until I can get it to the place for repair I am leaving it in the box.

As you can see it is in very good shape. I might get an Intellivision for it, I'm really not sure yet.

Finally I picked up two Football games I've wanted to crab for a while. Atari 2600 Real Sports Football and NFL 2K1 for the Dreamcast.

That is it for now. I'm thinking about doing some game-play footage of the Bentley in action. Would that be something you would like to see?

Later,

Homeless

Damn dude that's sweet. I wish I had the space for classic equipment but I don't know if I'd play it if I did. It's nice just to have though, as a part of personal history. Enjoy it!

I like those controllers for the Bentley. I want to jerry-rig one for my Xbox One so I can use it for retro arcade games.

Lol, I would like to see that. They are nice paddle controllers.

That would be cool to see a video on the Benttey Pong machine, especially since you said it was from 1983?!?

It is from 83. I will look into doing one in the next week or so.

I didnt even know this existed. Goes to show Im not super knowledgable about older games and systems.

I’ve been gaming for 37 years and I just learned about this system 2 months ago. I want to do a video and complete history blog about it. These systems are important in the gaming arena. Wether it was a late Pong style arrival or not.
