Portable atari 2600

[Sek13]

Hey guys, one question, who made the portable Atari 2600? I'm just curious

I don't know about "the" portable Atari 2600, but I'm pretty sure Ben Heck made one of the earlier "one-off" units.

Commercially, there is this Flashback portable, which is more likely what you're thinking of:

There's also presently a portable device that plays licensed Atari 2600 games, the My Arcade Pocket Player Pro.

 

Though, good luck finding one in stock. They're gone from Atari.com, and they seem to be sold out elsewhere as well.

Я не знаю о «портативной» Atari 2600, но я почти уверен, что Бен Хек создал одно из первых «единичных» устройств.

В продаже есть портативный Flashback, о котором вы, скорее всего, думаете:

No, atari flashback, to me it’s not atari 2600

Then you're down to the one-off type of build. So if it's not Ben Heckendorn who made the portable 2600 then it's whoever the individuals are who happened to have built their own, I think.
