panamajoe Posted June 25, 2004 Share Posted June 25, 2004 The much rumored about next-gen Phantom system finally did hit the shelves... (well, at least the shelves of Ebay Brazil ) It´s fantastic looking (Atari 7800 style), has got a great controller (Genesis style) and by the looks of its cart port it seems to accept Famicon carts. Whooopie yeah! Well worth the wait! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hydian Posted June 25, 2004 Share Posted June 25, 2004 They actually have working prototypes now. I saw a review of the (limited) experience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thx1138 Posted June 25, 2004 Share Posted June 25, 2004 Please don't tease me...... but isn't "the phantom" just an in-joke made up by people? And it doesn't really exist, and never would? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not to the folks of Infinium Lab who've worked on what they say is the real deal Phantom. But who knows? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think so.... I posted awhile back that we got a fax at work about investing in Infinium stock..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avid Fan Posted June 26, 2004 Share Posted June 26, 2004 IMHO the only thing the Phantom has going to it is that keyboard with the mouse under it. But to me, the Phantom seems like the Apexteme, but with no redeeming qualities. I really want an Apextreme though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JB Posted June 26, 2004 Share Posted June 26, 2004 HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Seen that one before. I'm always amazed by the combination of stolen parts. NES in a 7800 case that takes Genesis pads. Best FamiClone ever, right there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really want an Apextreme though I think the idea of the Apextreme is interesting to me and I would consider a purchase once I read more about it.
