CGRHD - MAGNAVOX ODYSSEY 2 Hookup Part 1

[gillianorley]

RCA to Coax adapter? Bah!

It's not a REAL video game system if it does not connect to your TV with antennae leads attached by two screws.

Yes. You heard me right. SCREWS!

[nisbahmumtaz909]

The new Magnavox Odyssey 2!

Your parents help you hook it up.

[joshuavideogames]

lol no one has VCR

[moosicninja09]

Last thing, my input thing doesn't look like yours does. Is there another adapter I need?

[moosicninja09]

Hey, I've got a quick question...

I've got the version of the Magnavox Odyssey 2 with controllers that AREN'T hardwired into the console.. I can't find one on Ebay, anywhere, so, I have no idea what's it's worth.... Do you know what it's worth, if I was to sell it?

CGR 4 Life.

[moosicninja09]

I'm glad we're going back to a single chord for video and audio (HDMI), because all that yellow and red and white crap was getting annoying. Not to mention all the component crap.

[espartacos1]

Hahaha funny video, I admire this guy, he's living in the past, literally!.. Old consoles and VCR, classic...lol

[thedirtydeltas]

LOL I love the beginning of your vid,with the smooth little control shoved aside with a HUGE pro-magnum man sized Odyssey

[MrDavidtron7]

is there some way to make a component video adapter for rf acable

[reviewmaster007]

although we can get videopac, does the odyssey 2 work on PAL television? (i doubt that it will work myself)

[Mr80sNerd]

how do you convert vhs on to your computer then to you tube

[xpwieki]

Anyone know how to replace a controller on the magnavox / Videopac? Because I can buy a new set of controllers here, because the ones I have a broken. Do I need to solder?

[johneymute]

i like how you put rf based game consoles to a vcr to convert the rf signal to composite video signal

.

[619Agent]

I didn't know you would actually show your face in one of these videos. =O

Not that it mattered... oh well. :P

[bulgarin1000]

angry joe and CGR MUST JOIN FORCES.THE ANGRY GAME EAMPIRE!!!!!!!!!1

[RetroGamer1000]

I bought mine in box with like 9 games with the manuals and boxes and also 1 extra controller that looked like it was taken out from another one all for $6 at my flea market today. And... K.C.'s KRAZY CHASE CAME WITH IT YEY!!!

[bazfanv2]

The power button looks like it could set of a nuke.

[deathtsunami]

no what i wonder just now how much is your power bill

[ultimateGAM3R1]

heres an nintentdo controller LOL LOL

[SakuraAvalon]

:3 Aww, dog protection.

[xxxIzekeIxxx]

my dad had an odyssey 2, and in the early 90s i would see it lying around in an old cabinet or the attic or something and id think it must be sooo cool, bc i didnt know about shitty 70s games, all i knew was nes. but even though i never played this system i distinctly remember the console and controller design

[CrazedGeek]

Test Drive Unlimited is awesome.

Just wanted to say that.

[rickyTraice]

1:34 Holly shit.. and my mom says I've got a mess of wires.

[NeedlesKaneTMA]

is that adaptor actually called a female RCA to a male Coax Adaptor?

I need to know what its actual name is so that i can look for one at radioshack

[Tryzon]

I still cannot imagine why a designer would use built in controllers...it just seems like a huge liability, and would it really be so much cheaper? At least not all models of O2 used that style.

[TheCommentGuy8]

Have a Nintendo controller hahaha :)

[Chordonblue]

Have a Nintendo controller... :)

[Angryminigamenerd]

how you can to record video game footage with a vcr and them uploaded to youtube

[Kelly610]

The suspense!

[Ressenatior]

Cool!

What did it cost?

[kregzdeM3]

Id like to see it cought fire... that would be cool....

[BrightRaven0]

LEARN TO SPELL DUMB-ASS!

[mattnintendonerd]

im finally getting a magnavox o2 on tuesday cant wait =)

[BJW840]

I though Atari was the first system but there was somthing else that came first

[ShadowDragon3812]

do you have an original oddesey?

[dminalba]

Known as Philips Videopac G7000 in Europe

[Tryzon]

Yes, we poor Europeans get a far more confusing name.

[masterbate23]

i have all 11 of my gamesystems plugged in on 2 power strips of one outlet, plus the tv and surround sound. all on one outlet, had it this way for 3 years and nothin happened.

[bffalcon]

lol, i want a radioshack in australia, they sound so usefull.

[Snotnarok]

As useful as they sound, you pay double what you would anywhere else, but it's easier to find there so..it's a trade off.

[gnarly79]

haven't you heard of dick smith? or leading edge electronics? :S

[mrbeanchannel]

man, you own almost every conole known to man. I'm so jealous!

[seganerd89]

@mrbeanchannel not even close

[morgangamer22]

COOL

[Chasmodon]

Sir at Inecom, I must truly credit you for keeping this MASSIVELY interesting! This is the point of YouTube, in a single video (or three!)

And NOW I wished we kept our old ColecoVision/ADAM system - you would have inspired me to reinvigorate it or something!

[stan0cat]

Please can I have a link in which i can see a picture

[stan0cat]

Please I need the name of the RCA adapter!! please I need the name!! Please!!!

[stan0cat]

Can I have a link where I can see a picture!!!!!!

[stan0cat]

[InecomCompany]

The adapter shown is female RCA to male Coax. Radio Shack, Radio Shack!

[92greenz34]

@InecomCompany i just gotta say i went to your website for the first time after watching the majority of all your videos and i have to say the ebay auto search feature is neat! granted i have been collecting for ever and have many many systems at this point its still neat to see what things are going for and if its something i do not have it sure makes it easier to find THANKS!

[csvanquishftw]

@InecomCompany could u do some classic nfs reviews?

[plurp7]

Great Part I Mark, cant wait for Part II.

Absolutely LOVE that you gave Stella a NES controller just 'as a safety precaution'.

Another great video!! (and DAMN did I always want one of those Odyssey II consoles!!)
