With no third party support with the notable exception of iMagic, and out dated hardware, Odyssey^2 managed to sell over one million untit until it was removed from the market in 1983.

A planned successor, Odyssey^3 was developed but never released to the console market crash of 1983-84. A version was released in Europe as the Philips Videopac + G7400. Such games are not compatible with Odyssey^2.
