    It was pretty damn expensive.
    The SNES was as well. Along with every other game console. :p

    I would have been a sad little child anyways even if my parents liked the idea of me playing videogames back then. :(

    I owned both of those as well at one time think the Jr released in the '85 it was like the "slimline" of the 2600.

    I had one of these as well.

    Oh gawd. I remember being in china and I was in someones house. They had an interesting game system with a monitor a keyboard very similar to the ones from 1995 except that you plugged games into the top of the keyboard.

    There were all sorts of games. like a donkey kong styled Shrek game and various fighting games.

    Its an Atari 400 sorta a computer but played cartridges as well the games were more arcade quality than the 2600 by a long shot. almost NES quality especially with Pac-Man, Centipede, and Space Invaders.

    Ah, that goes to the Atari 7800!

    Damn this thing's pretty lame, yes it has 99% compatibility but look at some of the games left off:

    Kirby Super Star
    Kirby's Dream Land 3
    Dungeon Master
    SD Gundam GX
    Top Gear 3000
    Metal Combat
    Dragon Ball Z - Hyper Dimension
    Power Rangers Zeo - Battle Racers
    Super Bomberman - Panic Bomber W - FAIL
    Super Mario RPG - FAIL
    Super Robot Wars Gaiden - FAIL
    Star Ocean
    Street Fighter Alpha 2 (USA/Europe) / Street Fighter Zero 2 (Japan) - FAIL

    I like these games & they're part of my SNES ROMs library, & this device doesn't support them? For $120USD this thing's a piece of crap :p

    And I'm guessing it also doesn't support the SuFami Turbo cartridges then eh?
