Munchkin game being too similar to Pac-Man. Atari won the lawsuit and that was about the time the Odyssey2 went off of the shelves. It is rumored that Magnavox actually made more money off of lawsuits dealing with the Odyssey and Odyssey 2 than they ever made from the sale of the systems and games. |

Odyssey is the only system to date to release board games that used the game system as part of their game play; these three games were released as part of the Master Strategy Series. Power Lords - the last game released - is believed to have less than 20,000 copies having made it to the streets, making this the rarest title on the platform, and the only title that does not have a European videopack counterpart. |

The only good thing about this system is the little voice simulater --------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
