Fabulous Fred - The Ultimate* Electronic Game When the lights flash and Fred beeps, he’s ready to play 10 different ways. This one has the whole Fredseum staff scratching its collective head. Manufactured in Japan in 1980 by Mego Corporation. Fabulous Fred is an electronic game machine that features 10 different activities: electronic organ, music machine, memory game, mind bender, submarine hunt, baseball, roulette game and a few others. There are two things that have the folks at FredQuarters baffled: Why is it named Fred? and How the heck do you make it work? Another mind-bending challenge from the people who brought you Sumo wrestling and Godzilla. One thing we know for sure is that we like the name of the game. Play Fred! *ok, so it was ultimate in 1980.
