The Odyssey Portable, I call it the Odp!
A brief history of this gaming system.

Now the photos!

The system itself

It dwarfs an xbox so dave's xboxp is out as the largest portable gaming device.

Cool! Never thought anybody'd bother with a "console" that old, but I guess I was wrong...

Heh, yeah but at least I made it. Although, it's kind of big so it's not too portable.

Odyssies own!

You know it's not very shrinkable or hackable in the first place since the entire thing is analog, and the controllers were designed for... something, I don't know, but definitely not human hands.

Hey I had one of those! I found it in my grandparents' basement!

Then my Mom threw it out.

-Super

Oh, and nice job!

Nice......I lik it but I dont think I would ever make one ( because of my limited suplies ). Just sticking to something more portable for me for now.

That picture of you holding the controller kinda reminds me of Indiana Jones with that idol in the first movie.

holy hell that is Classic!

I never had an odessy, wish I did, Congrats on the one portable that was older than anything Ben has done

Also, what kinda voltages does the odessy take?

cowsgoquack101 · Post by **cowsgoquack101** » Mon Jul 03, 2006 10:33 am

I think takes 9 volts, it runs off of 6 C cell batteries. (there's a compartment for them) It only has 6 games and they all require the screen covers except pong. Then I only have one working controller so I'm just messing around with a white dot. I've taken it apart to use the screen for other projects though.

Oh ok I did not know it took batteries!

If I can get my hands on one of those I will Liteify it!

Ahh I will make an attempt to make these mini!

I was planning on that, but you beat me to it with a better design than I would ever make! Good job!
