Bally Astrocade

The Astrocade (also released as the Bally Professional Arcade and initially as the Bally ABA-1000) is a second-generation home video game console and simple computer system designed by a team at Midway, at that time the video game division of Bally. In 1980, it was sold to a company named Astrovision. The company later renamed themselves and the console to Astrocade, its final name before its discontinuation. It is often posthumously referred to as the Bally Astrocade, though Bally had no involvement with the console by the time the Astrocade name was in use.
