Odyssey 2 emulation help needed!

I am posting this for a guy who posted this request to the wrong group.

Hi.  I have a somewhat unusual request:  I am working with a friend on a
project related to the old 8-bit videogame Odyssey II, which was popular
from 1979 to 1984.  We’re trying to get info info on it – like its
microprocessor and BIOS – to write a PC emulator.  We would dump the
cartridges to disk, so eventually we would have one disk with a PC O2
emulator with every O2 game ever made on it!

However, this would be a heck of a lot easier if someone out there could
provide some info on the O2 microprocessor – or knows anyone who used to
work on the O2.  Any info would be much appreciated.

Even more obscure request:  I am looking for the following Odyssey II
games: Power Lords Atlantis Pink Panther Frogger Q-Bert Popeye Super Cobra
These were the last games ever made for the O2 .

Thanks,    Robert Kaiser         kai…@pofvax.pnb.sunysb.edu

    Intel 8048.  I think it’s still in the current data books.  Note that since
    the 8048 has 2K of internal ROM, though, there may not be any way to program
    the O2 without a copy of that ROM (or at least a list of the routines in it).
    Also, I’ve been unable to find any information about the video chip (8224
    I think, but no Intel data books I checked had it).
