What made it depressing was I did have the model you could add a cart slot to, to do so, but I didn't have the tools, and still I don't believe I have the skill to do it.
If I could get a pre-modded atari flashback 2 I have a bad feeling I'd buy it very quickly. I'm not sure if I'd regret it, but it would be cool to have. At least then I could re-experience the Nintendo and other major licensee arcade games that the flashback was denied. The 2600 has some solid games those licensed modern copycats just aren't allowed to have.
At one point there was a story that ATGames was going to allow the Colecovision flashback system to have a cart slot, I would have bought that instantly, but they didn't do it, nor did they even bother to leave a hackers option on it (or even a SD card slot for ROMs like their handheld genesis has.)
Does anyone know someone who has a pre-modded flashback 2 that takes 2600 games?
