Dedicated Consoles

Dedicated Consoles are devices that have one or more games built into it and there is also no way of adding new games or content to them. there is No CD Drive, Card Slot, Cartridge Slot, or Floppy Disk Drive, they also can't connect to the Internet. in the early days of the Dedicated Consoles, the market consisted of Pong Consoles and early attempts at portable gaming but overtime, Many types of Dedicated Consoles would spawn.

Device Types
LED: One of the first attempts at portable gaming, these systems used a set of LED's controlled by a microprocessor. beyond glow of the LED's, the only graphics were the case decals, stickers and sometimes overlays were used as well. the end result was a loose and cost effective interpretation of a video game. these were vary popular during the 70s.
VFD: These systems used a Vacuum Fluorescent Display, They looked and played better then LED games but they were often more expensive.
LCD: These were uncommon during the 70s, as LCD's were expensive, and unreliable during this time but at the start of 1980s, the many issues that plagued early LCD began to disappear as the tech improved. still, it wouldn't be until the late 80s, when they when they became reliable enough to start becoming the dominant screen technology.
Brick games: A kind of handheld LCD console with dot matrix LCD screens that has very low resolution (usually 10x20). Contains multiple simple games, usually demakes of games on other platforms, such as Tetris, Space Invader, and Battle City.
Plug-N-Play: These systems come bundled with controllers, have controllers built into their chassis, or the chassis themselves as controllers, and are immediately playable after being connected to a television (and sometimes also power adapters), hence the name "Plug-N-Play". Some of them are powered by batteries and others are powered by external power adapters. Many of the Plug-N-Play consoles are based on Atari-2600-on-chip or NOAC (NES-On-A-Chip) hardware filled with horrible unlicensed and/or bootleg modified games for Atari 2600/NES.
Calculator & Watch Games: the gimmick is simple, take something utilitarian and add a built-in game. generally, these devices offered An LCD screen and a basic but hard to control game and for more then a few years, they were popular
Electronic Games: These are not trying to mimic video games and are usually more toy like. two classic examples include Merlin from Parker Brothers and Quiz Wiz from Coleco
