Atari 2600 Multi-Cart

I ran across an eBay listing about a week ago for an Atari 2600 "multi-cart" allegedly featuring 256 games on one cart. It sold, but I managed to track down a photo from another seller that's also out of stock that shows off what the cartridge looks like. Apparently it uses DIP switches to control what game is being played.



Has anyone ever used one of these before? I'm intrigued, and I expect more will crop up for sale, but I know things that sound too good to be true usually are. Many thanks in advance all!

That's cool! Now they need one for Coleco!

I'd be surprised if someone out there doesn't have something cooked up and ready for that one. Old consoles are in right now!

I went ahead and ordered one. it's coming from overseas, so it's hard to say when it'll get here. Sometime before June of 2021, hopefully.

I hope they make one!

I'm surprised they don't have one. Even the Aquarius has a multicart these days!

Yes I did, but with the RoboCup event coming up I've had no time to play with it yet.
