The best way to hook up an Odyssey 2 to a TV is with an RF Box (TV/Game Switch).

Alternatively, you can also make a trip down to Radio Shack and pick up an RCA Female to F-Male adapter or a Phono to F-Type. It fits right on the end of the Odyssey cable and then screws into the tv.

And as for your AC power supply, a regular NES AC unit works just fine. Hope this was helpful.

If it has the goofy non-standard RF cord, you can replace it like this:

As for the NES power adaptor - it should work, but some units do not take that plug! Just an FYI!

Good point! I forgot that some older models won't take the NES power supply...they will take the Atari power supply, however.
