Retro Gaming: This is a 1978-9 Binatone Colour TV Master 10.
I use this one in particular because it had the ten common Pong games from pong clones of the first generation consoles, and also this one has Target without the need of a gun adaptor, meaning it is LCD and modern TV safe. These machines existed throughout the 70's, and Binatone itself released many versions, in B&W and in colour with the different variants of chips created for pong clones at the time.
This system is played via its original RF signal through a VCR machine to convert signal to composite, which splits its 'sound' (non-existent in this machine, as it beeps externally) and video; into a SCART cable in this format. That then gets converted to '720p' HDMI signal to be captured in my usual device.
This game is Basket 1, a 1 player game where you try to bounce the 'ball' into the 'basket'. The Game stops once the player reaches 15 points displayed in yellow, the limit of the counters in the machine presumably using a 4 bit integer. The blue counter represents the number of bounces currently used for that point (to a maximum of 15).
