Magnavox Odyssey 2 review

Showing off a Magnavox Odyssey 2 I got off ebay and it's less than admirable work ethic.

Bad language? eBay fucked him up the ass! Subscribe to my channel :).

I got my odyssey 2 complete with box and 16 games for 25 bucks. It was missing the power adapter but luckily my Genesis power adapter fits it.

My working odyssey displays that "weird pattern" when it has no game in it. So I suggest the problem lies in the cartridge port. Since you already said you cleaned it thuroughly how about you try to recondition the pins. What happens is that repeated game swapping pushes those pins back making a less reliable connection. Take a pen or small toothpick and slightly and very carefully pull those pins back out so they contact the cartridge better.

Good luck

Would you mind adding a "sort of" tag or something in the title of this video, to hint at what the video is actually about?

I sympathise for you, but why are you blaming the console and Ebay? the seller or you are at fault. Did the item description say it was in full working order? if so the seller is to blame, if it didn't well...buyer beware!
