    Hey all, I bought a first year (hardwired controllers, shiny membrane keyboard, silkscreened logo) O2 last month, and I was curious if anyone would like to buy it. I've got the following for it:

    O2 console (of course)
    The Voice (works great)
    Original old style RF switch (one connector is missing its prong, but otherwise, connects just fine).
    14 game cartridges (some rare, apparently), one duplicate.

    None of the items are boxed. They have slight wear as can be expected from a used system, slight surface scratches on the membrane keyboard, wear on the 1 player controller.

    The system is buried amongst some other boxes at the moment, I'll have to get them out of the way to do a proper inventory on the cartridges.

    Oh, and I forgot to mention, the games have their manuals, not to mention the original console manuals, and The Voice manuals. There's some manuals for other games as well, I can only assume the previous owner lost their respective carts.

    I would very much like for you to give me a full listing of all the games... I might be interested in buying this, as I had a VideoPac G7000 (the European version of the O2) a long, long, long time ago, back in Germany. :)

    don't know, if you prefer an O2 or a G7000 for nostalgic reasons, if its a G7000 let me know, I have some (>10) with most of the games which have been available for them around somewhere ;-)

    Those things are everywhere... here in Holland the games fetch some of the lowest prices ever... usually below 1e boxed :Hangman:

    I'm interested in an Odyssey 2 if it has detachable controllers. The one I have is the hard wired kind, which is a pain in the ass. Also, what is the condition of that wierd white TV hook-up box thingy? The one I have is all screwed up, like I had to splice the wire to a new antenna connector, etc, which makes the reception all fuzzy. Is there a way to get rid of the funky white box and attach a normal RF or cable?

    Well in fact I have... its a bit late now to rummage thru the back of the shed but I still got 20-something boxed games (several mint Parker ones, for instance, and a Dutch #9 cart). I'll let you know :)

    The box is in good shape. Other than the little "fork" at the end of one connector, it works perfectly.

    Sorry, it doesn't have detachable controllers. To the best of my knowlege, the first version of the O2 had hardwired controllers, detachables came as an after market repair for those systems, and were built into future models.

    Oddly enough, the listing I found for that particular model stated that the wires were black, while the ones on mine appear to be dark brown.
