Walmart Summer Restock....

[Curt Vendel]

Walmart is taking approx 200K of additional restock of Atari Flashback 2's to sell through the summer, so for anyone still looking for a FB2 or a couple, Walmart should have them in stock around the US.

 

 

Sorry, no word on a PAL version STILL for Europe/UK or Pan-Asia as of yet, the H/W was done a while ago, but no Green-light yet to move forward on producing PAL chips or changing the games to PAL versions, still in a holding pattern and circling I'm afraid.

 

I am however working with some of the 8bit hw hackers and plan to give any/all assistance to them in getting a 32bit 800 system going.

Is this a new Revision of the system or more of RevB?

Target and Wal-Mart stores in my area seem to have plenty of these now. They were rather hard to find during this past Christmas season though.

Most likely RevB, as much more fanfare would have occurred with the release of a RevC unit, i.e., bug fixes and major improvements to several of the "new" games, like Lunar Lander, Yars' Return, Caverns of Mars, and maybe even Return to Haunted House . If the PAL version is indeed released, the unit may be based on the RevC unit (but this is speculation on my part).

I'll definitely be picking up a couple more, just for the awesome controllers alone. Hey Curt saw you in the B.B.S. Documentary want an awesome piece of computer history. Keep up the good work.
