The Color TV-Game 15 (テレビゲーム15, TV-Game 15) was one of the consoles of the Color TV-Game line, acting as one of Nintendo's first forays into the video game industry. Released in 1977, the console currently acts as the oldest entity in the Super Smash Bros. series, being three years older than Mr. Game & Watch and Pac-Man's debuts in 1980 and 2 years older than Sheriff.

As an Assist Trophy
The Color TV-Game 15 made its Smash Bros. debut as an Assist Trophy in the fourth game of the series. Upon being summoned, two paddles from the game appear on-screen, playing a game of Pong by themselves, with the score appearing above each paddle. Not only does the ball that is bounced between the paddles harm players, the paddles themselves reflect projectiles for the opponents of the summoner and deal knockback to enemies that touch the paddles, while not inflicting any damage.

Nintendo released this video-game console way back in 1977. You could play 15 different games, inspired by sports like tennis and hockey. In Smash Bros., paddles will appear on the left and right sides of the stage. You can hit the ball, but avoid touching the paddles at all cost!
In 1977, Nintendo released this home video game system in Japan with 15 variants of games like tennis and air hockey. In this game, the paddles appear at the sides of the stage, and a game of Tennis B starts. The ball can launch fighters on its own, but don't touch the paddles either!

Origin
The Color TV-Game line of consoles was a series of consoles produced by Nintendo in the late 1970s, with all consoles only being released in Japan. The Color TV-Game series was among the numerous Pong clones produced after the production of Pong by Nolan Bushnell's Atari in 1972. The Color TV-Game 15 was the second iteration of the console, featuring fifteen game variants over the six offered by its predecessor. The paddles move in linear paths with the same consistent speed, in homage to how the original game was controlled by using microswitches.
