Very late Merry Xmas & a Happy New Year!

Hi folks!

Last year wasn't my best year as many personal things happened but now it's a new year which just started and hopefully it will be (way) better than last year. So i'm back (for the better or worst...LOL!!).

But now all the files concerning the OdySim project are backed-up on a DVD somewhere (it's been 4-5 moths so a lot of water has passed under the bridge) but no fear, i won't have to dig too much. The only problem is to remember where i left off before all Hell broke loose.

I know that still need scans of some parts of "Baseball" and 'Invasion" to be able to finish the OdySim because there were only a few games left to simulate. So i'll be back very soon and in the meantime, here's a link to an auction which i find it a bit "disturbing":

Magnavox Odyssey 1 Video Game System Prototype Salesmen Sample

Look like it's a near mint Magnavox Odyssey but just plain ordinary as there is no paper or marks or indications that a "prototype" whatsoever...or even a salemen sample. If this would have been the Skill-O-Vision prototype than i would be drooling right now (LOL!!) but that's not the case.

So i wonder how much an Odyssey briefcase plus an Odyssey console both signed by Ralph H. Baer is worth ? Like i wrote, just wondering...

So "blog" you soon!
