Atari Flashback 8 or 9 or X ? PacMan, Donkey

[Patari BD]

Hi.

First time writing here.

I'm in Montreal Quebec Canada

And want to buy Atari Console for my son and I (i'm 47 years old)

I hesitate between 8 or 9 or X...

 

What do you suggest if i want to 'add' Pac Man, Donkey Kong, Q-Bert, ... too ?

Is there a place i can buy it and it's easy for me...or it come all set ?

 

Thanks.

Patrice

windsor ontario here. the 9 or x are both able to have games added. for me the fb9 seems a little easier to work with. i purchased my unit from walmart.ca. the standard boom is no longer available there, and the x is not there yet. both the 9 and x are available at amazon.ca. if you go for the 9, make sure to get the HDMI version.

 

as far as adding games, you can use this page (for fb9): 

it's a little involved, but if you follow the instructions and go slow, you will be able to pull it off.

 

if you end up with fbx you will need to use this page:
