The Odyssey 200 is a video game console and a Pong Clone. It is the successor of the Magnavox Odyssey and the Predecessor of the Magnavox Odyssey². It was released in North America in 1975, just two years after the Pong was released. Six paddles were hardwired into the console (three for each player). The Odyssey 200 also featured a Scoreboard on the front of the system and ran on a 9 volt AC adapter plug. The Odyssey 200 only had five functions: auto serve, manual serve, ball speed control, ball angle control and player size control.
