Collecting/Playing
Take a look at my Videopac Collection.
You can download the Videopac, Odyssey2 and Jopac games from "My Collection"
here. This .zip file contains 220 games and is 765 kB. Click here to view the complete list of the games. After unzipping, you can use these files (ROM images) for the O2 emulator or for burning your own EPROM's.
Programming
This is the first Videopac/Odyssey2 game I've written: a simple version of Pong.
It is Voice enhanced. For a higher ball speed, press 2 during the game (not at the Select Game screen). Press 1 to return to normal speed. Keep the Action button pressed for a higher speed of the player.
An enhanced version with 11 variations of Pong is now available as a cartridge at Packrat Video Games. It includes "Pong-classic" and "Pong-analog".
Also available at Packrat: Calculator. A program I've written to turn your Videopac or Odyssey2 console into a real calculator.
If you're interested in technical information about the Videopac computer or want to write your own game, I've collected some info on this page.
