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".
Coleco Telstar Alpha: smaller than the previous models.
Box of the system: also smaller than others.
