Nintendo's Color TV Game Series debuted in 1977 with the Color TV Game 6. It contained 6 variations of "Light Tennis" (or Pong). The players controlled their paddles with dials attached directly to the machine.
In 1978, Nintendo released the Color TV Game 15. With the two controllers now on cables (making for much more comfortable play) and 15 slightly different versions of Light Tennis, the CTG 15 sold over a million copies. In the same year, Nintendo released the Color TV Racing 112, a bird's-eye-view racing game that implemented a steering wheel and gearshift. Alternatively, two smaller controllers could be used for multiplayer.
1979 brought Color TV Block Kusure, a 1-player game based on Breakout. Like the CTG 6, the in-game paddle was controlled by a dial attached to the system.
Computer TV Game, Nintendo's final non-cartridge system, was distributed in Japan in 1980. It was a port of Nintendo's arcade game, Computer Othello.
