The NES Flashback – review

Nestop2
Robert @ RetroBlast has a review of the NES Flashback, a $30 device that plays most old NES games, he writes – “A console that fits in the palm of your hands? You better believe it! When my friend told me he saw something called ‘Flashback’ that played NES games I assumed that he was mixing things up with the Atari system of the same name. But as it turns out Fry’s, Amazon and other places are carrying this NES cartridge compatible NES system in stock. For a mere $30 you get all the necessary components needed to plug into your TV and get started on some retro gaming action. The unit is approximately 5 ½ x 4 inches in size and can almost fit inside of one of my pockets. It’s actually smaller then the NES catridges (but not as slim). “Link.

Might be a good start for making your own portable version or some type of other hacked up console…
