Might be cool. Ever thought about 5200 or 7800. If anyone even says they want an odessey portable I'd cry. Those older syetms are almost to old now though. They have numbers forf buttons.

It would be interesting to see someone work on some new system. Give us updates when you win and crack the sucks open.

5200- Possibly to big
7800- Too big

As for the buttons with nummbers what about the 5200's controlls it has a keypad that had 1-0 and two other buttons (reminds me of the phone).

I was going to say that it reminds me of a phone to. Someone should make a phone that looks a classic game controller. You could probably cut them down in size. Ben did. Good luck on the coleco though.

that's the other way around. The 5200 is HUGE.

Ok, take this as a comparison.

"My 5200 would make your Xbox cry uncle!"

That reminds me, I was about to get an atari 2600 on ebay for $15 after shipping, but the guy ended the auction with 30 seconds to go. He used the excuse that the item broke, but most times that means somebody emailed him and said they'd pay him $25 for it so he sold it to them. It's against ebays rules, but it one of those that are uninforcable.

$15 after shipping wow. I paid $26 something for mine but I got like 10 games so its worth it for me atleast.

I thought about ripping apart my first generation Inty or my 7800, but I'm to chicken to do so.... I love them too much.

I think I should have been born earlier. Something tells me I would have enjoyed growing up in the early 1980s. ^^
