Many thanks to local retro collector Derrick, the Wisconsin Computer Club now has a beautiful Fairchild Channel F video game console in the fleet! Very excited to be able to share this spectacular piece of old hardware with you all at future WCC events!
The system was complete with controllers and a few game cartridges, or "Videocarts" for the system.
This is the System II, technically made by Zircon Corporation after Fairchild sold their gaming division to them in 1979, putting this one on the latter half of the system's life. The System II had some cost reductions and a few improvements to the design.
