===Europe=== [[Image:Videopac-pete-screen-800px.jpg|right|thumb|European models had no power button, and black action buttons]] In [[Europe]], the Odyssey 2 did very well on the market. The console was most widely known as the '''Philips Videopac G7000''', or just the '''Videopac''', although branded variants were released in some areas of Europe under the names '''Philips Videopac C52''', '''Radiola Jet 25''', '''Schneider 7000''', and '''Siera G7000'''. [[Philips]] used their own name rather than Magnavox's for European marketing. A rare model, the '''Philips Videopac G7200''', was only released in Europe; it had a built-in black-and-white [[computer display|monitor]]. Videopac game cartridges are mostly compatible with American Odyssey 2 units, although some games have color differences and a few are completely incompatible, such as [[Frogger]] on the European console, being unable to show the second half of the playing field, and Chess on the American model, as the extra hardware module could not work with the console. A number of additional games were released in Europe that never came out in the U.S.
