    Default O2 Typo

    Well this isn't a typo in the section, it's a typo on a cart. I have a Pocket Billiards cart labeled Pocket Billards (no i). Something to add to the section I guess.

    Is it Odyssey for sure, or a VideoPac?

    Yep it's the standard Maganavox Odyssey^2 label. I check it just to make sure.

    Interesting facts 8)

    I went through my collection and found this:

    O2
    Box and label say "Pocket Billiards!" (AA9424)

    Videopac
    Box and label say "Electronic Billiards"

    Jopac
    The big title on the box/manual says "Flipper+", but also (smaller) "Billard Électrique - Flipper game - Flipper spiel" :lol:

    Ah, wait... French = "Billard" -- perhaps the O2 cart Tempest has is a Canadian release??

    I thought that too, but it would be Bi-lingual then. It still says Pocket Billards on it (Pocket is not in French). I think this is seriously just a typo on their part. I didn't notice it myself until I was making up my trade list in Word and wondered why it kept underlining Billards.
