Move to “First generation home video game consoles”?

Maybe we should move this article to Move to “First generation home video game consoles” because this article is not only a list but also gives an overview about the market situation and more. This article only contains a list of first generation home video game consoles in the section "List of systems". In the "List of home video game consoles", we currently have a direct link to this article in the section "First generation (1972–1984)". I recommend to change the link to "List of first generation home video game consoles#List of systems".-- Maxeto0910 (talk) 18:44, 15 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Sportstronic

Would it be appropriate to list the New Zealand Sportstronic here? It's mentioned on Video games in New Zealand. I made a commons category for it at commons:Category:Sportronic games console. --Mbrickn (talk) 05:42, 1 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Videotronic

Not sure why you tag Videotronic to Australia. The Videotronics were designed by my father Robert Grazebrook for Alfa Electronics in Singapore and manufactured in Singapore and Quantan, Malaya. The first units shipped in time for Christmas 1976. Alfa Electronics PTE went bust on other business. The Videotronic II was owned Grazebrook Vint laboratories, UK, manufactured by Minicomponents PTE in Singapore. UK units about 50k, 15k sold in Italy, 12k in France and Germany. Checked with my father! Mgrazebrook (talk) 13:27, 10 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
