[Early Christmas]

Awesome.  I wish my family was into video games.

[Flashback HDMI?]

Speaking of HDMI I found this.  Not sure what it means preprogrammed.  Pre programmed for what?  HDMI is HDMI.  What does it matter what systems are hooked up.  Unless it only works for what is listed which is Atari 2600 7800 Colecovision Intellivision?

Cool? - Yes!

 

The most practical? - Probably not : D

 

Why does it says 7800 &2600?  There was a rare 7800 version but it was only for 7800 if I remember.  There was no 7800 retail version.

[Arcade machines with many games]

I saw a polycade with 25 builtin games on the price is right at night tonight.  Looks pretty good.

I like the design in the first photo.  But I have never heard of that website.  And I dont see any mention of an HDMI flashback anywhere or on Atari's website.

Does anyone know what chipset is inside this machine? Emulation issues aside, what is the power of the machine comparable too? Certainly post playstation 1 it would seem, just curious if anyone knows.

Here are pics of the inside.

That may be, but I would say that prob. Will be a hard find.

You got a atarimax, you could play it thru.

No atarimax.  I wanted a real cart to see if my 2 port has issues like everyone here or not.

[Gamestation Pro]

Saw one at KOHLS yesterday for 89 dollars.

Looks like he lowered his starting price to 350.

[How many games are 4-port only?]

According to the rarity guide decathalon loose in only worth 9 bucks.

[How many games are 4-port only?]

I would like to try decathalon also but what is a fair price?

 

There is even a 79.99 and 84.99 but this is the cheapest.

Is 25 too much for a loose cart?

I'd love to see this thing restored...

As would I.

 

 

[Need some help]

Nice.  Never seen that before.

[Nintendo AVS]

Not the new thing from few years ago.  Something from back in the day I never knew existed.  This is how it should of been.  Top loading.  No pins to bend.
