1292 Advanced Programmable Video System

The 1292 Advanced Programmable Video System is a second-generation home video game console released by European company Audiosonic in 1978[contradictory].

It is part of a group of software-compatible consoles which include the Interton VC 4000 and the Voltmace Database.

An expensive (£49 in the UK in 1977[contradictory]) Hobby Module was available which gave 6.5 kilobits of user-programmable memory and had a 5-pin DIN socket to allow software to be saved to a cassette tape player.

This converted the unit into halfway between a home computer and an ordinary gaming console.

The following is a table of the console variants grouped by cartridge compatibility.
