The Tele Action was next to the Tele's one of the first German-language journals at all, exclusively on video games reported. Due to fewer advertisers, only two issues were published - in April and May 1983 by Ehapa Verlag in Stuttgart . The editor-in-chief was Harald Kaiser .

history

The first edition appeared for the first time in April 1983 and presented games for the game consoles and home computers of the time . The title Tele Action arose from the fact that video games were mostly called "video games" back then. The content was rounded off by reports on arcades, chess computers, computer clubs and board games after video games. The last edition appeared in May 1983.

content

The editorial was titled "Am Drücker". The magazine was divided into the sections "Current", where future new games were presented, "Telegram" with news from the video game scene, "People" with interviews with people from the world of video games; In the "Games" category, video games were tested for the platforms common at the time ( Atari 2600 , Mattel Intellivision , Philips G7000 and CBS Colecovision ), but without any evaluation in numbers. Newly available hardware such as joysticks was presented in the "Shop" section . "Computer" mainly dealt with chess computers while "Szene" presented video game clubs. The section "Report" visited arcades and "Story" reported on topics related to video games. The content was rounded off by the heading "Board games", where similar games were tested for video games that were current at the time.
