It is part of the [[Magnavox Odyssey series]]. The console could only display three square dots on the screen, and they could be moved with two controllers. To get a different game, you had to put a sheet of plastic on the TV screen and insert a card into the console that matches the number. It has no switch. The games start automatically if the console is powered. ==References== {{reflist}} {{Video-game-stub}} [[Category:Video game consoles]]
