Odyssey2/Videopac Tutankham prototype RELEASED

[Phosphor Dot Fossils]

Click here-ish for the BIN, an extensive review, and a walk-through! Huge thanks to Dieter Koenig for releasing this BIN. (And cross your fingers - his site already mentions a possible cart release!)



just a little bit of wishful thinking artwork on my part.

I like the way the O^2 logo's colors blend in with the label art (and the different colors popping up near the bottom keep it interesting)!

[Phosphor Dot Fossils]

Actually, I've got some changes in mind for that artwork that would make it even more colorful - befitting the most colorful box/manual art that ever graced the pre-NES era.

shit...that art work is great the way it is....i can only imagine that it will look even better when you have your additions on it

[Ed Oscuro]

needs more pyramids, caffeine (?!), UFOs, and Timothy Leary, then ;)

Looks great; but if you can make it even BETTER...rock!

I don't mean to rain on PDF's parade, but I'm sure if Dieter produces a cart run he'll go with Euro-style designs (he already has this box mock-up on his site):



PDF's would be perfect for an American Magnavox release, but since Tutankham would have been European and from Parker Brothers, Dieter's is more accurate. (I realize PDF is already well aware of this, I'm just pointing it out for others who aren't as hip to the O2 scene.)

In any event, the game is huge and FAR more detailed than your average O2 game. I urge everybody to try it out!

Uh oh, Is that the Magnavox lawyers I hear coming?

:P just kidding.

[Phosphor Dot Fossils]

Maybe if PackratVG does a run of Tutankham carts for the US...hmmmmm. And if any of the Parker games had been released in the US, they probably would've been done in the traditional Parker packaging shown above too, rather than in anything resembling a Magnavox/NAP O2 package. I'm just very fond of that trippy O2 artwork style.

[AB Positive]

Mmm. That would be a great game to play with my AV modded O2... mmm

Oh, me too. Your design is cooler than that somewhat bland Parker style, no doubt. But... no vanishing points?

@AdamG: Did you use the A/V mod from Deathskull Laboratories? I've been considering doing that myself... how good is the picture?

wow...an O2 a/v mod....i dont like modding systems, especially without a spare, so it looks like im gonna have to pick up an extra system and do this mod.....id have to imagine the graphs look a lot better than RF connection
