Description

The listing, 1978 Mattel Electronics Football 2 has ended.

In 1977, Mattel put out Football 1. These were pre-Gameboy hand-held games that basically let the player use direction keys to run his blinking red blip through a maze of defensive blips. A kickoff would result in a chirping version of the "Charge!" melody.

In 1978 Mattel upgraded their game to include a pass option. This new game was christened Football 2 and is one of the most popular of the '70s hand-helds. It was given a forest green casing while the Football 1's casing was white.This is the ORIGINAL Mattel Electronics Football 2. Manufacture date 1978. It plays like new. All LEDs are working. It takes one nine volt battery for hours of fun play. I tell you what, this game is great! Once I turn it on I have trouble putting it down. But I have way too many fun things laying around. (That is totally from the perspective of my wife, I do not agree) So I have decided to part with the dearly beloved ones and hopefully find them a great home.If you think you qualify, and you have the credits, then you just may be able to become the owner of, Mattel Electronics Football 2.

The first edition. The one before you could pass and run backwards.

Mar 1st, 2010 at 7:53:55 AM PST by

LOL, I totally remember those! trying to run your blinking light down the field, the tinny monotone music, hard to beleive this was once "high tech"

Mar 1st, 2010 at 6:20:10 AM PST by

So true, but why can't they make the same quality games as they did back then? This thing is 32 years old and plays like new.

Yes it has a pass button, as long as your receiver, (Flashing Blip), is in the open you can pass to him/her.
