Another curiosity, though not very rare, is the Telematch de Panoramic (as called in Argentina). Like the Spanish Overkal, this system is a Magnavox Odyssey clone, but in a quite different form.

1. It does not use the many Odyssey accessories (overlays, cards, dice, stickers, etc.) because it only plays five simple and attractive games (in fact, the games people would mostly play).

2. It is built in a plastic carry case, and is therefore easily transportable.

3. It plays additional games that Odyssey could not play: Football with goalies (two vertical lines with holes).

4. It does not run on batteries: it contains its own AC adaptor for use on mains.

5. The 20+ pages user manual is replaced by a single carton panel.

6. The controllers are housed in a metal case, with no text, and are hard wired to the system.

The number of specimens built is not yet known, but at least 15,000 were made.
Its date of release and original price are also unknown.

The five games are selected using push-buttons:

1. Submarino (Submarine)

2. Fronton (Squash)

3. Volley (Volleyball)

4. Futbol (Football with goalies)

5. Tenis (Tennis)

Sine the system plays the additional Football game, it uses two more knobs for adjusting the position of the goalies. Those are called "Control de Lineas". The left line is controlled by the "Iziquierda" (Left in Spanish) knob. The other is controller by the "Derecha" (Right in Spanish) knob. Since this game requires addtional graphics, the system has (at least) two additional daughter boards (see pictures). As a reminder, those daughter boards have a specific function: spot generator (ball or player), flip-flop, sync generator (video signals), gate matrix (collision detection), etc.

Finally, there is no power switch. The game is set off by removing the AC plug. The red neon light indicator tells whether the game is powered or not.
As can be seen on the pictures below, the circuit board looks very similar to the original Magnavox Odyssey one. Even the wires of the hand controls are placed like if they were initially removable.
