A website dedicated to the Philips Videopac (or Magnavox Odyssey 2 depending on where you’re from) is to remain online. The website videopac.nl was due to go offline in April 2023, but owner, Robbert Jansen, has had a change of heart.
In the newly updated forums, he told visitors “The more I thought about quitting it the more I started to realize I would be regretting that decision in the future.”
The website was launched in 2006, and contains a database of Videopac games and forums discussing the console.
