This is called Teletext[1] (or in german: Videotext). It still widely used i guess. Even me sometimes used it to get informations about the sheduled TV-Program if not cellphone/tablet is in reach ;)

If you're watching this World Cup in Germany, you'll get regular notices on where to find further information (e.g. see Page 200 for current lineup)
