Info/Hacks on the 10-n-1 Atari game/control?
(1/2) > >>
TapeWurm:
I can't really find the actual name for this unit, but it's the newer handheld shaped like an Atari 2600 control that has 10 Atari games built into the unit. It hooks up via composit/RCA inputs on your tv and all the hardware is inside. It uses an on-screen menu for game selection. I also saw an Activision version shaped kinda PSXish at Radio Shack with Pitfall and others in it. ANYWAY..... I couldn't find any info here, or there, on this unit, technical wise. Just wondering if this puppy's being hacked in some fashion yet. It would be sweet if there were a way to flash the games to change them or add to the number of games inside. Again, I don't really know what kind of hardware it has. I wonder if it is using actual Atari hardware with original game coding or if they were remade to look identical. I would imagine they are original. Anyway, any info or hack insight is appreciated.

Made by the company JAKKS.  It's at Target and Walmart in the toys section with the little Tiger electronic stuff.

Without a doubt one of the coolest things to come about in a while..... retro wise, that is. Here's to old skool!

Most review it as being very dissapointing. The games aren't accurate and the selection of games leaves something to be desired. Also many have problems with the games and with the sound.

Still pretty cool considering its size and you just need a mini tv to play in the car.
TapeWurm:
Yeah, I've read of the bad reviews. Sad to hear that. But how bad could graphics and sound from those games really be? hahaha And yeah the selection does suck. Like 2 good games and 8 crappy ones. But still, if there were only a way to hack it..... so much potential in such a great control.
