    Put me down for one as well.
  2. Dastari Creel
    I am most definitely interested.
  3. Dastari Creel
    Oh there is definitely room for expansion. One of the reasons is that they are developing "active cards", which is an idea that Ralph Baer had where more complex circuitry is put on the card to allow the system to do things for which it wasn't initially designed. Another thing that they've done is create different controllers, which is also an idea that Baer had, although his idea was only for a putting controller in addition to the rifle that was made. I know that another Odyssey innovation that was being worked on at the time was a four-player Odyssey, which I learned about from Magnavox engineer Don Emry when I interviewed him. Now, that would be incredibly expensive, since they'd need to create a whole new system rather than add-ons to the existing system, but it would be neat to see what kind of games could be devised with a four player odyssey, which in all other ways acted like the original system.

    As I think is true of just about any console the need to turn a quick profit meant that never saw what any of them were capable of until the homebrew community came along. You just need to invest a lot of time in figuring out how to make great games that push any system to its rails.
  5. Dastari Creel
    I am in the market to purchase a system II in tested working condition. Please let me know if you have one to offer.
  6. Dastari Creel
    I would like #14 please.

    Are there reservations on any of these? It looks like you don't want Paypal yet as you would need to calculate shipping for everyone. I'm not sure if my posting saying that I wanted one was enough to get one reserved or how that side is going to work. Just noticed that Boojakascha is working on a project Ulysses. Yet another pun that I dreamed up a while back that someone else is developing with the exact same name that I had come up with for the project. Still, it's wonderful to see all these people jumping into the Oydssey game these days! Still no project "Iliad" or "Aenid" yet though.

    I may make a few custom requests, but definitely put me down for Space War and Percepts.
  9. Dastari Creel
    Ha, another idea that I had a while back (I have PM's as proof!), but never got around to implementing. Put me down for one. So glad that there are some people out there getting around to all these projects that have lived in my head for five years. Now if someone implements my Odyssey portable idea (codenamed: Iliad) that would be something. ? EDIT: I've obviously been resting on my laurels too much. New games and hardware have been released that I haven't even heard about. I never heard about the previous multicard that lead to this reproduction. Looks like the Odyssey homebrew page needs some updating and consolidation, and I need to do searches for who's working on what more often.
  10. Dastari Creel
    I really want to do something for the Odyssey's 50th, whether it's releasing a game, doing one of the hardware ideas that I've had, or finally getting the vgarchive up and at least having the Odyssey reference materials available. Anyone interested in collaborating to do something awesome for the 50th?
  11. Dastari Creel
    Hey Sly, I still don't see a reference for Yar's Revenge on the Odyssey. Do you have something on that?
  12. Dastari Creel
    Jealous of this. I had the basic idea for an RPG on the Odyssey and even thought of calling it "First Fantasy" for the same pun-based reasons. I just don't have the time to do any game development and haven't for the last several years. Either way, I will watch this space eagerly.
  13. Dastari Creel
    You said it. I thought that I had them all as well. If anyone sees any new Odyssey games please update the thread here. I really appreciate zhorton for doing so when he was ready to release his new games.
  14. Dastari Creel
    Sly I've never heard of Peacekeeper/Command-o or Space War Demake. Do you know if either is still available? Those were during the lifetime of this thread, so I wish someone had posted something. Uppy told me that he'd basically abandoned his Soccer remake some time ago and with it being released by Zhorton and his team I don't think that there's any reason to continue posting those. Can you provide references for the other unreleased/abandoned ones other than Hadeus War? I have that one on my list. Also if you could provide a list of any exclusive games for Odysim I will add them.
  15. Dastari Creel
    I'm pretty sure that I have everything other than re-releases and I'm not intending to go that granular. I'm listing games rather than individual releases. If you see anything in particular that's missing let me know, because I don't see it.
