VideoBrain Family Computer (vidbrain)

for Batocera

The VideoBrain Family Computer (model 101) is an 8-bit home computer manufactured by Umtech Incorporated, starting in 1977.
It was built around the F8 processor from Fairchild Semiconductor, and featured 1KB of RAM and a 4KB ROM. It was able to output 384 x 336 graphics and 128 x 56 semigraphic characters in 16 colors, and sound to a connected television set through an RF connector.

By far its most striking feature was the 36-key keyboard - though the keyboard of the VideoBrain was poorly designed and difficult to use, keyboards were not available on any of the more common video game consoles of the time. The system also features four joystick ports, a cartridge connector, and an expansion port.

The package includes:

15 games (~38 MB)
