Avante-based Magnavox

[Jon A.]

No, not available locally unfortunately. Saw it in the linked 1972 Magnavox Odyssey game console promotional film. It's not a complete rip-off of the Avante as the cabinet lacks the rounded bottom corners and is not angled in the front or back. This design still doesn't grab me but it's different enough for me to keep one in my stable, especially a remote version.

It was filmed with a Super 8 camera so naturally the film looks like crap.

Chicken or egg, which came first?

Wasn't the Zenith a 1974 model?

The RCA2000 came in 1969--WAY before ANY of the others !!

Wonder how many CRT's they sold after the Odyssey burned a line in the screen?
