Flash Multicart for Philips Videopac (Magnavox Odyssey 2)

This is a Flash cart (PicoPac-Multicart) for Philips Videopac G-7000, G-7200, G7400, C52, JOPAC and Odyssey 2 by Andrea Ottaviani.

This Flash cart for Videopac / Odyssey 2 is based on Videopac-microSD Multicart project by Wilco2009 (https://github.com/wilco2009/Videopac-micro-SD-Cart)

PicoPAC is a multicart DIY yourself based on cheap “PURPLE” Raspberry Pi Pico clone, easy to build and not expensive and using its 16mb flash for storing games instead of the SDCard.

How much i paid for the PicoPac-Multicart?

  • 1 x RP2040 Pi Pico Purple : €2.69
  • 1 x JLCPCB PCB : €1.00
  • 1 x DIODE 1N4148 / Push Button : €1.00 +/-

More or less for each single Philips Videopac PicoPac-Multicart complete with all the components you will spend €4.69.

The price of each component also includes the cost of shipping and customs clearance.

Below you will find the photos of how i repositioned the BUTTON, i preferred to install in this position rather than on the upper side of the cartridge (default position of the PCB).

You can also download the front cartridge label, UF2 firmware v1.0a and a ZIP archive with 200 games.

    Thanks for this great work! Got the PCBs with chamfered edges and gold contacts, and currently waiting for the other components. Looking forward to your shell 3D model that is WIP.
