Make your own NES! Really!

Jack has a real chip not a glob top. So for him he could build a custom NES like Kevin Horton did.

I know what it is, what I was asking was if they were sure the Atari Flashback has an NES chip rather than an Atari chip.

Well yes the flash back is a cheap NES setup to play ported Atari games. It would be far better just to make the damn AOAC.

Amen.
I hate how Atari, (or crappy infogames...) decided using a noac would be better! They're wrong!

Yeah, it's an all-in-one solution that they didn't need to fab. Sounds like a winning solution for them... And 90% of people buying it will see the games and say "Hey, yeah, I remember this..." and not scrutinize it. So it was probably a smart business decision by them.
Of course it would be wonderful if they fabbed an AOAC, but let's face it, there isn't a market for it. The cartridges just don't exist in as much volume. The only reason NOACs exist is because of the thriving Famicom pirate market in Asia.

So, are these exact NOAC clones with good quality video and sound? Or are they missing\ have altered some things?

(For Example, controller connections or other things.)

MM007, that's the direction I'm thinking...for all the people who are against the NOAC because it won't play Castlevania 3 or because it's missing disk system sound channels or blah blah blah...they probably just have nothing else to female of the dog species about...but it is possibly a better constructed NOAC, right? With better parts and materials, etc. Just a thought.
