The '''1292 Advanced Programmable Video System''' was first made by a British company called [[Radofin]] in 1976, although the machine was officially released in 1978. The technology was licensed from 1976 to other companies throughout the UK. Acetronic, Prinztronic, Fountain, Grandstand, Audiosonic, Hanimex and Lansay, each made consoles based on Radofin's console for different parts of the world. Some of these variations were identical to the original but with different logos, while others varied the external design completely. | The '''1292 Advanced Programmable Video System''' was first made by a British company called [[Radofin]] in 1976, although the machine was officially released in 1978.

The 1292 Advanced Programmable Video System is part of a group of consoles that all use a Signetics 2650A CPU inside (the same processor used in the Emerson Arcadia 2001). This group of consoles is believed to have started with the Interton VC-4000 (produced as early as 1974, but sold in 1978), because out of the group, this console has the largest amount of games. The games on the 1292 are also similar to the games on the [[Interton VC 4000|Interton VC-4000]] (some have same titles and numbers). | The 1292 Advanced Programmable Video System is part of a group of consoles that all use a Signetics 2650A CPU inside (the same processor used in the Emerson Arcadia 2001).
