1980 - The Quiz Wiz Challenger
and Quiz Wiz cartridges
Quiz Wiz Challenger
The
Quiz Wiz cartridges were able to function on their own, without the
Quiz Wiz challenger set. Each cartridge came with a book of 1001 questions
and the computer unit. They functioned with the use of one 9V battery.
Each unit was encased in a vinyl case, as shown below. Directions
on how to use the Quiz Wiz units were included in the question booklet.
About 20 different sets were sold. There was no set that was officially
listed as #1, but the unnumbered set is General Knowledge. See the
list below.
