History of video games/Platforms/Arcadia 2001

History
Phillips created an example platform for one of their chipsets, leading to a number of small mostly compatible consoles based on their specifications, one of the most popular being the Emerson Arcadia 2001. Other notable compatible systems included the German Tele-Fever and the officially licensed Canadian console Leisure Vision.

Emerson Radio cooperation released the Emerson Arcadia 2001 in 1982.

Thousands of game cartridges for the Arcadia 2001 were barred from sale due to legal issues.

Compute
The console is powered by a Signetics 2650A CPU clocked at 3.58 MHz.

The system has 1 kilobyte of RAM. Some materials suggested the Emerson Arcadia 2001 had 28 or 24 kilobytes of RAM, which was not true.
