My Grandparents bought this unit brand new in 1959. It got put out in storage when the Collaro Conquest changer(labeled Magnavox Custom)quit working. I got an identical parts Collaro off ebay, so made a good working one out of two machines. I cleaned the unit up, lubricated it, replaced the capacitors in the amp. It's model AMP 185-11 Also I replaced the needle. It's working great now. It also has the matching external speaker unit. It had a matching television, but it was gone before my time. It would be awesome to find another one some day. My Grandfather says it sounds just like it did when it was new.. + Informações

Part 1 of 2. Classic Game Room was the FIRST classic video game review show on the Internet in 1999. Returning in 2008 with new episodes, Classic Game Room breaks out a review of KC MUNCHKIN for the Magnavox Odyssey 2 video game console. This is awesome old school gaming at its finest! KC Munchkin was actually pulled from the shelves because it was too similar to Pac Man! When you see the game you'll believe it, but it also has so many improvements over Pac Man that it's a completely different game. Pac Man by Namco in the arcade is a classic video game loved by millions. Pac Man for the Atari 2600 is a laughable pile of rubbish partially responsible for the great video game crash of 1983. KC Munchkin is a great video game and makes use of some awesome features on the Philips Videopac G7000 as it was called in the UK. KC Munchkin eats Munchies and is chased by Munchers, not the ghosts and power pellets we're used to in Ms. Pac Man. This game was released in 1981 for the O2 and was pulled from the market after legal issues. There are still many cartridges of the game out there, which are easy and affordable to come by. This game features several versions of mazes like invisible maze levels, and a map making maze creating program mode... on a video game from 1981!!!!!!! They can't even give you that in Halo 3 today. KC Munchkin will probably remain an obscure game forever since the O2 is long deceased, but it is worth finding at auction and totally fun to play. If you like .... + Informações

Classic Game Room HD reviews a competition between two video game console powerhouses, the SEGA DREAMCAST vs. the MAGNAVOX ODYSSEY 2. Which gaming system is the winner, the Sega Dreamcast or the Magnavox Odyssey 2? Watch this detailed review and find out. The Sega Dreamcast is a popular game system that was released in North America in 1999. The Magnavox Odyssey 2 is a classic cartridge based game console released in 1978. In some ways these two game systems could not be more different... in some ways they could not be more alike. The Sega Dreamcast has Sonic, Crazy Taxi, Soul Calibur and Chu Chu Rocket. The Magnavox Odyssey 2 has KC Munchkin, KC's Krazy Chase, War of Nerves and Invaders from Hyperspace. Each game console costs about $40 today, used, and games are readily available and frequently inexpensive. Sega is well known for the amazing array of arcade titles, machines and game consoles like the Sega Master System, Sega Genesis, Megadrive, Game Gear and Sega Saturn. Magnavox is known for.... televisions. Maybe they made boom boxes too, and lots of other stuff. This is an interesting and entertaining look at two video game consoles with short life spans. It didn't have to be that way, and it doesn't. You can buy the Dreamcast, Odyssey 2 and stacks of games for a fraction of the price of a new PS3 or Xbox 360. Classic Game Room loves classic retro systems as much as the new ones, and this competition of Sega Dreamcast vs Magnavox Odyssey 2 is one of our finest .... + Informações

Classic Game Room was the FIRST classic video game review show on the Internet in 1999. Returning in 2008 with new episodes, Classic Game Room breaks out a review of THUNDERBALL for the Magnavox Odyssey 2 video game console. THUNDERBALL! is a video game pinball machine game, like the Williams and Gottlieb collection, except for the Magnavox Odyssey 2. Do you like pinball, pinball tournament footage and learning how to play pinball? Well, then check out THUNDERBALL for the Magnavox Odyssey 2. This is not related to Thunderball, the James Bond movie. But it would be cool if it was! James Bond playing pinball and winning Domino over with his mad multi-ball skills! Heck yeah! This is a one player to four player game and is primitive, old school, and fairly simple. In many ways Midnight Magic for Atari 2600 is more advanced than this game. This is a lot like Video Pinball on Atari actually, except that this is THUNDERBALL on the Magnavox Odyssey 2! Known as the Philips Videopac G7000 in the UK. Leave it to Classic Game Room to go old school gaming on you! Classic Game Room was the original classic video game review show on the Internet in 1999-2000, now on DVD.

Part 1 of 2. Classic Game Room HD turns on their new Magnavox Odyssey 2 video game console system... will is start up after 20+ years of not being used, or will it fizzle and explode into flames? The Magnavox Odyssey 2 was Maggie's entrance into the American video game market already dominated by Atari 2600 in 1978. In Europe it was known as the Philips Videopac G7000 and in Brazil it was called the Philips Odyssey. The original Magnavox Odyssey 1 was released in North America in 1970. CGRHD bought an O2 on ebay and this is the first time we unpacked the unit and turned it on. Will it work????? The tension builds as the joystick controller is untangled, the power cord plugged in and the world waits, with baited breath, for the power button to be pressed in sending a stream of current through the Magnavox Odyssey 2 sending us all on an odyssey of classic arcade video gaming!!!! Travelling through time and space has never been so much fun. This is old school retro antique collectible video gaming at its finest. Mess with the Odyssey 2 and prepare for a world of hurt, O2 game reviews are coming, as are review shorts of accessories like the controller. This is not a PS3, Xbox 360 or Wii. This takes the 360 and pounds it into the dirt with its mighty array of plastic buttons.. + Informações

Classic Game Room HD reviews Bowling for the Magnavox Odyssey 2 video game console. Also known as the Philips Videopac G7000 in Europe and other places, the O2 had some pretty cool games. This isn't one of them. In fact, this could be the worst "bowling" game ever created, if you can even call it bowling. Wii Sports Bowling this is not. Turn on your G-7000 and insert the enormous, handle bespeckled cartridge into the slot with a loud "CaCHunk!@" sound. Turn on the power and be greeted with minutes of entertainment from giant blocks that do little more than move about the screen in an illogical manner. Classic Game Room loves the classics, but even in 1980 or '79 or whatever year this came out this game sucked. It was fun to review though, because in between the awesome games like KC Munchkin, Bioshock and Assault Heroes we need to review some duds? How can you know if a game is really good if you can't compare it to a game that is awful beyond words. Well, here's one word - BOWLING! Strike... out! This is the gutter whore of the gutter ball, the rancid hot dog of the bowling alley, the smelly shoes from the rental stand. This is BOWLING! on the Magnavox Odyssey 2 video game system. CGR reviews classic video games and the worst bowling video game ever made, Bowling! (not to be confused with Bowling for the Atari 2600, which was actually pretty good.) Retro reviews like you've never seen them before.. + Informações

This ain't no ECCO the DOLPHIN! Classic Game Room HD reviews ECHO for the Magnavox Odyssey 2 video game console, also known as the Philips Videopac G7000. ECHO is a game very similar to the 1980's toy called SIMON. You hit colored, numbered buttons (or the Magnavox keys in this case) in the same pattern as shown to you by the computer. This is an old school puzzle game that is simplistic in nature but still a lot of fun to play. Echo is called a mind bending mental gymnastics competition (ouch!) Simon says what!?

Soupy Sales, Melba Tolliver, Jim Backus, and Arlene Francis try to figure out what the heck Larry Blyden and Product Manager Bob Fritsche are doing behind the desk. To quote Wikipedia - The Magnavox Odyssey is the world's first home video game console. It was first demonstrated on May 24, 1972 and released in August of that year, predating the Atari Pong home consoles by three years. The Odyssey was designed by Ralph Baer, who began around 1966 and had a working prototype finished by 1968. This prototype, known as the Brown Box,[2] is now at the Smithsonian Institution's National Museum of American History in Washington, DC While many collectors consider the Odyssey analog rather than digital (because of the addition of analog circuitry for the output, game control, and the use of discrete components), Baer has said he considers the console to be digital. The electronic signals exchanged between the various parts (ball and players generators, sync generators, diode matrix, etc.) are binary.[3] The games and logic itself are implemented in DTL, a common pre-TTL digital design component using discrete transistors and diodes. The system was powered by batteries. The Odyssey lacks sound capability, something that was corrected with the "Pong systems" of several years later, including Magnavox's own Odyssey-labeled Pong consoles. Ralph Baer proposed a sound extension to Magnavox in 1973, but the idea was rejected. The Odyssey uses a type of removable printed circuit board card .... + Informações

This is the final shortened version of my video describing the process I have used for many years to refill the CRTs in a Philips/Magnavox big screen rear projection television. The operation was performed in front of the camera live in the TV shop that I contract my labor to. The cost of the coupling fluid varies, but is usually less than $50.00 US(in the US). I have enough practice that I can do the labor in under 2 hours(for two tubes; blue and green). This repair procedure is usually priced at around $300 in my area. NOTE: This video was shot in 2004 and since then I have discontinued refilling the red, as the red CRTs are never cloudy or yellowed.. + Informações

Classic Game Room HD looks at and reviews the unique styling of the video game cartridges for the Magnavox Odyssey 2 video game console system. These are very different from cartridges that you might find for the Atari 2600, 5200 or 7800 systems. For one thing they have giant handles on them, and that's awesome. This makes them easy to carry around with you, wear as an accessory or pull out of the game system if you've been playing with mustard. The Maggie O2 is a great game system with some fun games like KC Munchkin!, Speedway! and CRYPTO-LOGIC! It's a good thing they made this handy cartridge design, too bad it didn't catch on. Games for the PS3, Playstation 3, Dreamcast, Sega Saturn, Xbox 360 or Gamecube could have benefitted from this amazing handle clad cartridge. This isn't a commercial for the Odyssey or a review of any particular gameplay or footage, this is a straight up review of the design of the plastic cartridge. Only on CGRHD will you see crap like this.. + Informações

This is aseries of videos on dedicated Pong systems including the ones from Atari. There were dozens of these made thoughout the world in the 1970s to early 1980s. You can see what the systems look like, what the paddles look like and even get to see the artwork on the boxes. Sense they are pretty close to one another and a lot came out in a short period, I am not going to rate these, just review them. This was a special time in video game history that is long game. At least thee videos help preserve the games for others to see. Please rate and comment as I do not get paid to do this.. + Informações
