I own two of these. I'm currently in the process of adding a cartridge port to one of them, and I'm going to give it to a friend who doesn't have an Atari.

Just got it off Amazon, and according to the manual, this version of Pong is actually compatible with the paddle controllers! One of your favorite versions of Pong just got better all of a sudden!
There are also a few hidden games that use the paddle control. Will have to input a code to access them.
I already know that.
Good for you!
This was the best one of the Atari Flashbacks.
I've had the desire to get a Flashback 2 for a while. Actually seen a modded one on eBay a while back with the cartridge port. I agree put the Flashback 2 at the top of the list. :-)
Flashback 2 is the only one (aside from my portable) that I have ever liked. Great review bud.
Really? I'm pretty happy with my 8, whichever flavor comes with paddle controllers. What am I missing, other than support for original cartridges or ROMs?
Great selection of games! worth picking one up!
When I turn mine on it just sits on the adventure territory screen and I can't do anything... I've tried other controllers, power adapters and still nothing happens. Bummer
I got on of these at a a yard sale for about $5.00.
My Flashback 2 also has a lot of visual errors, I was worried it was just mine. Maybe it's just the design. I'm still proud to own what feels like an ancient piece of history xD
Looks fun! I'm probably getting this soon...
UPDATE: I changed my mind. I'm DEFINITELY getting this soon!
I've just learned that combat has flying levels. Life just got a little better
I didn't know about the paddle games, but I have a plug and play with those games on it.
Love too buy one with the cartridge mod.
Totally worth it, as even a A/V modded original 2600 usually doesn't quite look as clear.
I wish the flashback 8 also had black and white and woodgrain
Got this. Have problems with the controllers not working at all.
I was thinking about this one for my dad
That atari flashback 2 looks waaay better then the atari flashback 7 wich i do own,may ask why, because the flashback 7 has no complete woodgrain finish like this one,
The only thing i consider a huge improvement (wich makes me do wish the original atari 2600 controllers had)is that those flashback 7 controllers do contain a select,pause and reset buttons on them sothat you don’t have to get off your caugh to do so😁
But other then that it’s a shame that pac man isn’t included,no sega or nintendo games(altrough i do understand that that would add to the price because of licensing costs,but still,,,)
☹️
No Pressure Cooker :( ..great video, Mr. NoSwear.
What did you use to gamecap this? I have a couple AV consoles that my gamecap device just will not output a signal back to the TV. This is one of them. I have tried using an AV to HDMI converter, and while that does work the video signal gets muddied up with artifacts.
I have the exact one, the arrows work to pick the type of game but can’t actually select the game.
I got one of these at a yard sale for about $5 .
oo SAME I GOT IT FOR 5 BUCKS SAME THING but it does not let me play the games it lets me pick tho
I just got this at goodwill for 30 cents with controllers!
@@qwaud Great deal!
Also, what do you mean prone to breaking?
like it randomly just breaks
was working fine now it literally is broken
annoying haha
im reusing the db9 ports and case for a pi project but still / there's no reason for that
i used it less than 5 times 🥺
could you make a review of the Atari Flashback 8 ?
How do I hook it up to a new flat screen TV?
Also, I need a new power supply. What volt/amp combo do I need?

i have Atari flashback 8 Gold
It is the only one I have, I am not interested in the AtGames versions that followed.
Actually, the third one is the only one made by AtGames that sucks. The rest of them are actually really good.
They are still fairly cheap on ebay, don't get the Atgames 3-X versions or the 1 (mini 7800 NES on a chip) versions, they all suck.

Flashback 2 is the only good Atari Flashback
the Atgames ones are lame, the 1st one is also terrible.
