Other similar Atari games[edit]
Jakks Pacific produced a 2600 style joystick and paddle controller, each with several different 2600 games. I think both were based on a NES on a chip. There aren't Wikipedia articles on either one, but if there were, they would be good links for the See Also section. Paddle review http://classicgaming.gamespy.com/View.php?view=Articles.Detail&id=215 Joystick review http://reviews.cnet.com/consoles/jakks-pacific-atari-tv/1707-10109_7-31581709.htmlBizzybody (talk) 04:01, 25 May 2010 (UTC)
- Both were based on an NES on a chip? I thought the Atari Flashback 2 was based on Atari 2600 technology with built in games. I read on an Atari 2600 authoritative site that you can open it up, smolder a cartridge input device into it, and play actual Atari 2600 cartridges! Too bad it isn't officially built in. 76.200.114.235 (talk) 20:47, 2 January 2011 (UTC) Bobby Powell
- You missread. He stated the two Jakks Pacific plug and plays (one that looks like a single joystick, the other that looks like paddle controllers) were based on NES on a chips. Didn't say the Flashback 2 was. --Marty Goldberg (talk) 08:21, 3 January 2011 (UTC)

Sixth/seventh generation?[edit]
The infoboxes say the Flashback consoles are Sixth generation era and Seventh generation era. While they might have been released in the 2000s, they are merely remakes of their respective Atari consoles. Beyond that, they really don't resemble Nintendo/Sony/MS consoles released during the same time in any way. Should this be changed? scooteytalk 03:39, 24 November 2011 (UTC)
- Modern hardware and releases, by standards here these plug and plays get covered under whatever current generation at the time of release. --Marty Goldberg (talk) 19:04, 24 November 2011 (UTC)
- Why? These repackaged Atari 2600/7800 boxes have nothing at all to do with the current generation of console hardware. 71.206.70.125 (talk) 20:17, 21 June 2012 (UTC)
Chronological v's technological generation[edit]
Hi there,
I understand that there are two uses of the word 'generation', one of which simply refers to which datespan within which a console was released. This useage of the word is redundant here, as there is already a field in the infobox called 'Retail availability' that convers that aspect of the consoles. Therefore it is redundant to use another field which is ultimately derived from this.
Therefore the only useful purpose of the 'Generation' field is to describe the technologal generation.
- You're mistaken however. A) Only the Flashback 2 and 2+ are based on 2600 on a chip, and even then they include additional modern chips for major functionality as well (the entire menuing chip is based off of Gizmo, a custom modern chip). b) All the later Flashbacks (3 and 4) are based off modern hardware running emulators. --Marty Goldberg (talk) 17:57, 23 September 2013 (UTC)

Duplicate article[edit]
I'm not sure how it happened, but there was a second copy of this article at Atari Flashback, [1]. I've redirected it, but it would be good if someone could double-check that nothing got lost here. Pinging the editors from the other article's history: @Maxeto0910, MarnetteD, Tony1, and Dgpop:. Thanks. Mike Peel (talk) 21:23, 15 November 2019 (UTC)
- Hmmm Mike Peel. As far as I can tell it happened when I activated GreenC bot to look for bare urls. I haven't seen it remove a redirect before so I'll ping GreenC to take a look at this. I think your redirect is okay though others who deal with them more often might find something I've missed. You could post a link to this thread at the WP:VPT to get other eyes on the situation. Thanks for your vigilance in dealing with this MP. MarnetteD|Talk 21:58, 15 November 2019 (UTC)
- GC has explained what happened here User talk:GreenC#Greenbot issue for anyone who is interested. MarnetteD|Talk 22:39, 15 November 2019 (UTC)
Flashback 4/Jungle Hunt version[edit]
Atari Flashback
The section 'Atari Flashback 4' states that the installed version of 'Jungle Hunt' is 'not the original 2600 version'. For me, it looks just like the origibal 2600 version. I found a footage of the version in a YouTube video (9.20 to 11.40): https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=dkd26FvsHLM&t=555s -- Maxeto0910 (talk) 07:05, 30 June 2020 (UTC)

Atari Flashback Classics[edit]

Hacking the Atari Flashback 2
Atari Flashback Portable Hack
(Cartridge Port Mod)
First thing is to remove the 5 philips head screws from underneath the console. 2 of them are underneath labels. One is the Warranty Warning tamper label, the second is in the center of the product ID label.
After you lift off the top half of the console case you can now see inside of the console and the PCB board. The Main Board is held in place by 6 screws, the Difficult Switches board is held in place by 2 screws and the Power Switch board is held in place by 2 screws. Lastly the AV cable is held in place under a tension retainer stalk with 1 screw and washer.
To assist in your Cartridge Mod additional to the console, a legend was silk-screened onto the board for easy reference. You will move a jumper wire from the IC2 ROM chip to the other side of the C4 pin. On J3 you'll need to close the jumper - you will have a choice here on whether you want to make it permanent or not, this will be discussed more later.
Remove ALL of the screws and carefully slide the board towards the front of the console and then angle it up and out out of its place. Note that the Power and Difficulty Switches all have springs between the plastic button caps and the boards, so they may spring out, keep a close eye on all three (3) of them.
So here is the Inside View of the Flashback 2 console with the PCB now removed as well as all of the switch buttons and springs.
