Description
The Magnavox Odyssey 400 dedicated console was released in 1976. The Odyssey 400 is an updated version of the Odyssey 200 with automatic serve and on-screen digital scoring features added. The console plays the same three games as the Odyssey 200--Squash (known as Smash), Tennis, and Hockey--and has the same three control dials for vertical movement, horizontal movement, and "english" control. An additional Texas Instruments chip was used to implement on-screen scoring; the mechanical score sliders of the 200 were dispensed with.
