The Magnavox Odyssey was the first video game console ever released to the public, predating Atari Pong, the Atari 2600 and even agriculture by a few years. It was actually the first system ever to feature a Pong-type game; however, graphical limitations of the time made displaying any colors besides black prohibitively expensive, rather limiting the ability of most people to play (or see) the game. Because of this, by the time Atari released their Pong console some years later it instantly won over the buying public with its revolutionary visible graphics, leaving the Odyssey in the dust and Magnavox with nothing to do besides try and sue Atari for bettering their game.

- The Odyssey was the first game console released. The Odyssey has no real specs. It contained no processor or memory. The box is made up of transistors, resistors and capacitors. Odyssey used cards that contained pin outs to change game settings. Plastic overlays that could be placed over the TV screen created graphics and color, but the actual display consisted of white squares (Paddle and ball) on an all black background. The Odyssey originally came with six game cards, and a 36-page user manual for the twelve games offered by the system.
