My parents somehow ended up with one of these when I was like 3. We weren’t exactly rich so I’ve always wondered if it fell off the back of a truck or something. The only games that come to mind are a word scramble and an overhead racing game. Pretty sure we had a few more but that was a loooooong time ago.
Magnavox Odyssey2 is here!

One thing I learned from growing up in a not too well of family, is that things that fell off a truck, never actually fell off a truck.
Interestingly, we use the same “excuse” in Dutch! (van een vrachtwagen gevallen)

Our neighbor friend had an Odyssey. Lots of fond memories playing it with them.

So far, K.C. Munchkin is my only game.

Looks good!
I had the Odyssey (with overlays). Regret giving it to a collector before I moved continents, I’d love to get it hooked up and working!
