G7400 (Odyssey 3) worth getting?

[idrougge]

I found a Philips Videopac G7400 for sale, but I am not so sure if the limited amount of games makes it worth the cost and storage space. Has anyone played it and can tell how good (or bad) it is? Any games worth getting?

I've got one. Most of the games are just G7000 ones with prettier backgrounds. The ones designed specifically for the system are super hard to come by and none of them look very interesting.

I would get it, some of the G7400 exclusives are actually pretty good (even though they might look boring). As already mentioned they are pretty hard to find however. Expect to pay somewhere between EUR 50 and EUR 200,- for a complete game (depending on the rarity)

Isn't there a multicart for the O3-enhanced and exclusive games? I could have sworn I heard something about it, though I dunno if they're just on the O2 multicart or what.

If you are interested in the Videopac system, you should definitely get one. Beside six games that run only on the G7400 (#56 Norseman, #59 Helicopter Rescue, #60 Trans American Rally, #63 Flash Point which I released last year, Jopac Exojet and Jopac Moto Crash), there is also the C7420 Microsoft BASIC Extension that is another reason to get a G7400. More info on my website (see sig) ;)

To my knowledge, there is not a separate multi cart for the Videopac+ games.

I would get it, especially if it's a SCART model (which is rarer), but that's just me. Not sure if it's worth the upgrade from a G7000, unless you're crazy about it (I'm assuming you have one already). I would mention that the power switch on the G7400 is notorious for failure, and I would make sure you check it out before purchase.

Thank you for the advice. I asked the seller if the machine works. Fixing a broken switch shouldn't be that much of a problem.
