The Interton Video 2400 is a dedicated first-generation home video game console that was released in 1975 by Interton.[2] It is the successor of the Interton Video 2000 and the predecessor of the Interton Video 2501. It could output only black and white.[2] The console uses the AY-3-8500 chipset.[2][lower-alpha 1] The sound is played through an internal speaker, rather than the TV set.[2]
The console was also released in France by Thomson under the name JV1T and by Continental Edison under the name JV-2701.[2]
