To me, the Flashback 2 is THE DEFINITIVE if you want authenticity in a console. I believe this is the only one out of the 12 revisions to be the original hardware that can be modded to add a cartridge slot. I still own mine and still love it. Centipede, river raid, millipede, Yard revenge and middle command is all I need.
The Atari Flashback 2 was great, a vast improvement from the first one which was a mini 7800 with the worst emulation I've ever seen. As far as any other flashbacks afterwards, my only interest was the flashback portable. The SD slot to add more games is a great feature.
@@GregsGameRoom yes, I remember reading about that and him butting heads with the company making it. Curt was the expert on the subject of Atari, they maybe should have listen to him a little more since he obviously knew the target demographic way more.
Curt was a great guy. I created a mod for the FB2 that I sell and sometimes I mod FB2's for people. Joe Decuir bought the Atari Flashback 2 Prototype from Curt and gave it to me, along with the Atari Flashback Portable prototype.
@@scottfarrar3441 Yes because they were taken over by AtGames who pushes out the cheapest lowest end crap with no care or love for the legacy of the product.

Still the only Atari Flashback I have or want.
The best one!

Curt also worked on the first one, but he didn’t have a choice but to do NES on a chip with that one.

Sad to hear about Curt! A very nice tribute in your video here. He looks so young. Covid???
Don’t know.
nothing to do with Covid, a history of heart related issues sadly.
@@MaximumRD thanks for the reply and news. Sad to hear this.
Heart Disease
Lunar Landar was released for the Atari 2600. The game here is the one.
Ah
Curt was a great guy. I created a mod for the FB2 that I sell and sometimes I mod FB2's for people.

Curt is definitely missed. It was his birthday a few days ago.
What fb2 mod do you sell? Cartridge port?
Big fan here, bought several fb2s for my collection.
Do you still offer a cartridge upgrade service?
As a fan of adventure, this is my favorite Flashback of the series!
Hey Love the vid cant wait to check the rest out ❤️
How does this compare to the other Atari Flashbacks that were released (I think there are 9 of them)? Same or different Hardware?
Way different hardware. The 3 and up are NES on a chip I think
Greg's Game Room - any reason why they changed the architecture from the Atari OS on a chip?

Is that a yay or nay gregg?
I'm curious. Will an Atari Flashback 3 controller work on an Atari Flashback 2?
Also, will an Atari Flashback 3 controller work on a real Atari 2600?
Its trash
Its not trash, the mini 7800 one and all the atgames ones are trash
