Philips Odyssey 2100
The Philips Odyssey 2100 console is a vintage video game console released by Philips in 1978. It was the successor to the Philips Odyssey 2000 console and was one of the earliest home video game consoles to hit the market.
The Odyssey 2100 was designed to be connected to a TV and came with two controllers and a set of game cartridges. It featured a built-in speaker, and the console itself had a futuristic design with a sleek silver and black color scheme.
The game cartridges for the Odyssey 2100 were often simple, with black and white graphics and limited gameplay. However, there were several popular games released for the system, including a version of the game Simon, which challenged players to repeat a sequence of flashing lights and sounds.
One of the unique features of the Philips Odyssey 2100 console was its use of game cards, which were small cards with circuits that could be inserted into the console to play different games. The game cards were cheaper to produce than traditional cartridges, making it easier for players to purchase new games for their console.
Overall, the Philips Odyssey 2100 console was an important part of the early history of home video game consoles, and it helped pave the way for the more advanced gaming systems that would come in the years and decades that followed.
