Hacking the Atari Flashback 2 into a 2600 - 5.8.05

  Email to a friend



Atari Flashback 2 If playing the 40-odd Atari 2600 games pre-installed on the Flashback 2 just isn't nostalgic enough and you want to use the genuine old-school cartridges, a handy how-to is now available to do just that.

With a few components and a lot of soldering, you can add a port that will accept the cartridges, though be warned that the "cosmetic" part of the article hasn't been completed yet and the port will look much like the image on the right when you're finished.
It also goes without saying that you should read the disclaimer at the start of the article before you go hacking open your console.
