| Command Center, Outside Views

Top view of the Command Center. The
keyboard is much more comfortable than the Odyssey2/G7x00 one,
nevertheless it does not allow fast typing when you are used to a PC
keyboard. Please note the empty controller hollows to the left and right
on the rear end of the console. The only "defect" on my Odyssey3
is the missing of the type plate - so if you should find an Odyssey3 type
plate on your local flea, please contact us ... ;-)

Same as above, but the two controllers are
inserted in their bays. This was a neat solution when storing the console,
but also allowed the usage of both controllers simultanously by one
player, for example in tank games or in the (almost completed) game
"Flash Point" by Rex Battenberg, in which you had to steer a
spaceship with one controller and could fire in any directions with the
other controller. The only thing to criticize is that the controllers are
not easy to insert in their bays.

Front view of the console with inserted
controllers.

Side view of the Command Center - hm,
reminds me of a Star Trek Delta Flyer or so ...

Top view of the backside. Note the bay
around the expansion port.

Same as above, but with attached voice
module. In contrast to the Odyssey2 the voice module is not inserted into
the cartridge connector, but into the expansion port. It fits perfectly in
the bay. I wonder how they planned to attach both the voice module and the
modem to the console at the same time? Maybe in the final version the
modem should have been attached to the voice module?
