No baseball cards, spinners, or dice
to tumble, the 1980 Coleco Head to Head
Baseball Game brought in the era of
computerized tabletop games. It all
started with inventor Ralph Baer, the
"Father of TV Games," and the
electronic entertainment home video
games that he introduced into the
market. The 1972 release of the
Magnavox Odyssey, home video game
consoles, led to the demise of
conventional table top board games.
When you turn on the Head to Head Electronic baseball game, it plays "Take
Me Out to the Ball Game." You have the
choice to play against the computer or
another opponent. With all the options
of a real baseball game, you can hit
and run, steal,
bunt, tag up, and more.
The computer displays the batting
average for the man at bat. The pitcher
can choose from 16 pitching variations,
the batter chooses to hit for average
or power. The Large bright scoreboard
and message center show all statistics
and results.
To promote the
1981 MLB All Star game, Gillette sponsored a sweepstakes
with a Grand Prize of $20,000., a
trip for six to the 1982 All-Star Game,
and 1,000 winners of the second Prize
received a Coleco Head to Head
Electronic Baseball Game.
