The Las Vegas console ES 2218 build by Philips - a manufacturer based in the Netherlands, it started in 1891 producing lightbulbs. The Las Vegas ES 2218 uses the quite rare General Instruments AY-3-8600 game chip, featuring eight games and vertical & horizontal movement motion. To use the new movement function the ES 2218 uses joysticks instead of knobs. The ES 2218 is an improved version of ES 2208 which uses the AY-3-8550 game chip with six games.
