The Gameroom Tele-Pong (sometimes also called Entex Gameroom Tele-Pong or ENTEX Gameroom Tele-Pong) is a dedicated first-generation home video game console developed, published and marketed by Entex Industries starting in 1976.[2][3] The Gameroom Tele-Pong displays the games in black and white. The score is built in the console. It has no sound.[2] The Gameroom Tele-Pong is similar to the first Japanese video game console, Epoch's TV Tennis Electrotennis, released a year prior.

There was also a version released in the United Kingdom marketed by Binatone called the TV Game Unit.[4] It had a price of £23.95.[4]
