I feel like this is the definitive review / retrospective video on these Flashbacks. Wonderful coverage of all of the different versions and variants with all of their strengths and weaknesses. Kudos on the great video and on the very impressive Atari Flashback collection!
This is absolutely one of the best reviews I have seen. I watched it earlier in the week and had to watch sections of it once more. You did a fabulous job. I look forward to more of your videos and hope you do one for the flashback portable. Keep up the great work.
My first question was why collect all of these, but then I realized I collect a lot of things and try to get complete. So I can't talk . 😅 was interesting. But I hope you play one of them
Wow, very nice, never seen a full Flashback collection before. Very detailed, too! Thank you a lot for sharing. That's actually a pretty interesting item to collect.
So many Atari Flashbacks! Well, the Atari was released before I was born (I was born in 1988) so I don't have any memories of playing it when I was a kid, but I like the line of systems for what it did for the world kf faming. A couple of days ago a colleague of mine gave me a complete in box Atari 2600 - Vader Edition which is a beauty of a console. Ever since, I have been looking for more information about the Atari 2600 line of systems, its re-releases and game compilations for other systems (I received Atari 50: The Anniversary Celebration for Xbox today). After watching some other videos, I came across this one and I absolutely loved it. So much information was given in an understandable and easy-to-follow manner. I have decided to go and find myself an Atari Flashback 9. The SD Card slot really does a lot in terms of value for me so I can hopefully find one for a decent price. Any idea on the value of it nowadays? It would make a wonderful companion console next to my current-gen systems. Thanks for the video, any info you might give me and keep more Atari (or Evercade) content coming! 🙏
Oh, I'm so glad you liked the video! The Flashback 9 is around 50 bucks, but I don't really collect for value, just fun! If it is complete, of course it is worth more. I love the original cartridges and have a huge collection because I collect variant lables. I just got my original Atari 2600 4 switch 1982 given back to me after all this time. My nephew gave it back to me. I will cherish it for life. Enjoy the retro games of the past and keep them alive for our great-grandchildren!
@@ravenstarretro4445 Wow. After all those years it was given back to you. That's wonderful. I know how that feels. I still own my original PlayStation 2 that my late parents gifted me in 2002. It's never going anywhere! The reason I asked for the value is so that I know what I should be looking to pay for it. I found two versions here; Atari Flashback 9 and Atari Flashback 9 Gold. The latter is listed by the seller for €50. Not too bad, I think. The other seller wants €45 for the regular Flashback 9.
I have read a few things about that and made a list to put in this video. After more research I found a video showing that some on the list do not or only partially work. It just got too complicated and I would have to test each to know the truth.
CHEEPS!!!!❤️. I didn’t realize that there were so many Flashback systems. Thanks for the video.

CHEEPS!!!❤️. Great video. I love Enduro. I didn’t realize there were so many Flashback systems.
This is pretty amazing! I had no idea there were this many versions of this out over the years. I just got one of the 50th anniversary editions.
Really enjoyable watch. I've recently become interested in the 2600 and Enduro is one of my favorites.
Your Bird 🥰😍 and thank you for explaining all the differences. This made a lot so much clearer 👍🏻
Oh thank you for the kind words! ☺️
I own the 8 gold deluxe and the activision edition. Love it

No

Very impressive single handed enduro gameplay. Great vid
Oh I see the sound seems to not be in sync when I am talking about the SD card. I wonder what happened there?
Also, it cut the ending off. I guess maybe it was too long?
I have the 8, the basic one, and that one also has the permanent cables attached, like the 9th.
My first question was why collect all of these, but then I realized I collect a lot of things and try to get complete. So I can't talk . 😅 was interesting. But I hope you play one of them
I want to thank Atari Compendium for some of the details in this video.
Wow, very nice, never seen a full Flashback collection before. Very detailed, too! Thank you a lot for sharing. That's actually a pretty interesting item to collect.
Loved the video 👍
Atari flashback 9 Gold, pode colocar o cartão de memória e adicionar jogos.

Do you happen to know which of the joysticks and paddles (with cords, of course :) ) also work on the original Atari 2600?
I have read a few things about that and made a list to put in this video. After more research I found a video showing that some on the list do not or only partially work. It just got too complicated and I would have to test each to know the truth.
The ending got cut off. It wasn't in the review. 😖
What do you think of the Flashback 50th Anniversary edition?
We picked both of them up, but the controllers are corded. So, I still like the 9 Gold the best.
@@ravenstarretro4445 Thanks for the reply!
Hi. Just wondering if you know if there are better wired joysticks compatible with Flashback consoles.
You could try any controller that has matching pins. Personally, I haven’t tried any other joysticks. Maybe a Genesis controller?
Nice one..!!! You need to look into Promo'SM!!!
