+sramirez2008 Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 Why did it take this long to make the Flashback look like a 2600? Also, why not add all six switches, even if one was non functional? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atariboy Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 Any chance of game lists for the new Blast systems? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrekkiELO Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 (edited) How about a game list for the Atari Flashback Portable 2019? Also, will there be an Atari Flashback X that includes composite video output rather than HDMI specifically for certain retailers like Family Dollar and Menard's in 2018?

I'm working to get all the game lists for the whole range of non-arcade machine products out as soon as possible. I'm not aware of any composite versions this year, but then I wasn't aware of them last year until some made it out, so I can't say definitively. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill Loguidice Posted October 25, 2019 Share Posted October 25, 2019 The full website for the arcade machine is now up: https://arcades.atgames.net/ More features/info will continue to be added to the website. Sam's Club locations already have floor demo units and inventory, but it's not at every location just yet. Walmart.com should have inventory in the beginning of November. Some photos are being posted on social media: 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ComputerSpaceFan Posted November 8, 2019 Share Posted November 8, 2019 Hmmmm this guy's review mentions no SD card and wired controllers which are minuses for me but he also says paddles still don't work with the emulator which makes me wonder if paddles will EVER work on these Flashbacks? Is it just not possible? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gsmith601 Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 Is there a way to find out what national retailers are carrying the flashback and portable this year? Have not seen them at Target or Bed Bath and Beyond yet and both have carried them in the past. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sam's Club has Atari Flashback X Deluxe's available now, Dollar General will have portables on Black Friday! Yeah, I'd called my local Walgreens, they told me everything was out on the floor for Christmas already and no AtGames products in sight, their manager knew what those were, she bought an Atari one last year. Maybe it has something to do with that lawsuit?! idk Edited November 19, 2019 by TrekkiELO 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will Amazon have anything? I don't have any of those stores close by. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also how easy is it to add roms? Judging by AtariAge posts, there are two versions. One doesn't seem to be working with the SD card and the other is working out of the box with the person's SD card from last year's Legends Flashback. Other than that, there's been no information that I've seen. No explanation from AtGames on why one allows games to be added and the other seemingly doesn't, no word on if SNES and Colecovision roms can be added, and no information on if all the stuff that rmr_md accomplished to enhance the 2018 system also applies to here. Hopefully as we close in on Christmas and these become more available, we'll start hearing some details. Until then, you're probably best off sticking with the 2018 version. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg2600 Posted November 22, 2019 Share Posted November 22, 2019 Wow, so I'm limited to Sam's Club or Family Dollar in my area to find the new ones? Is Sam's the only store to get the "Deluxe?" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ToddL Posted November 23, 2019 Share Posted November 23, 2019 This is the most comprehensive video I've seen. Not my video although his name is similar to mine. If I do a Google Shopping search, the non-deluxe version shows up as available at a Walmart store about 1/2 hour away for $44.88. Not available for shipping. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fiudr Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 As posted elsewhere, the Flashback X still suffers from very noticeable audio lag, even after the 0.1.18 update that claims to fix the audio lag. My Retron77 has much less lag, to the point where it's barely noticeable. Can this please be looked into? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
