Classic Game Room reviews the ATARI FLASHBACK 7 plug 'n play game console from AtGames, another entry in the Atari Flashback series of stand-alone game systems that deliver loads of games and questionable build quality.

The Atari Flashback 7 video review shows the Atari Flashback 7 in action with 101 games, excellent video output (it's really nice) and wireless controllers that aren't actually that bad.

I remove wood grain all the time Mark. I remove so much wood grain I'm considering opening up a wood grain removal business. What you gon' do son?

[musicryandave]

Mark, I'm surprised you didn't mention how frogger and space invaders are not the same versions as the 2600 versions. Seems like an interesting point to include in a review.

[adesignersperspective]

ha! that schwartz line from spaceballs is EXACTLY what was in my head the second you said it!

[CultOfWeirdness]

I got an old Magnavox 12 inch wood grain TV at a yard sale, haven't played Genesis or Atari on anything else since

[bullseyestrat]

Atari 2600 was technically my second system back in the day after the NES. Had tons of fun playing it with my family and as of somewhat recently I got a Atari 7800 in 2009 after seeing your video reviews and haven't looked back.

When Mark was talking about adapters, I remembered when I didn't have an adapter for my atari, and used a mess of breadties and tinfoil to hook it up to my television set.

Awesome Futurama reference with the 2 liter bottle of Shasta and your all-Rush mixtape B) Let's rock!

[ThePbrook]

that wasn't the original Frogger which version was low was that the supercharger version

[monstafrizbi]

LONG LIVE LORD KARNAGE!!!
That's all i had to say...







...really.

I'm still disappointed after 7 versions of the Flashback, AtGames still hasn't included Berzerk. They need to work out whatever deal they need to so Berzerk can be in the Flashback 8. Then I can finally justify purchasing one :)

[TheRPGChick]

7:28 Is that Haunted House II? And what the heck are you actually doing there? And I'm pretty sure that's the best Frogger I've ever seen!

[DocHollidayGames]

I would have been content with RF controllers. I don't know what they were thinking with infrared. They're on version 7 of this system, and they still haven't figured it out. The infrared is a step backwards from just the wired controllers the older Atari Flashback systems came with.

I love the feel of woodgrain. "I put it in my underwear." (mst3k)

[Ridge]

I always thought about getting one of these, but I have the Atari anthology game for Xbox and the Activision anthology game for ps2, so I pretty much have the majority of the 2600 games between those two games.

[bildo]

To hell with the Playstation 4 volumes. They fit all of this into one package rather than two discs! And this one's not missing Solaris!

[ZANEMID]

I did a atari mod off the the controller so you can sit any were in the room and play so you don't have to sit right in front off the atari on this channel.

[sarah-katehicks]

I totally agree with the woodgrain... Juno 60 is mad proof of what woodgrain does to a device lol

[keinonahkatakki]

2021 could do with a bit more Frog Pond.

Man I remember buying my first game console on my own and it was an Atari 2600. I found it at a garage sale with 30 games. I was 13 and to me a game console with 30 games for only $35.00 seemed way better than getting a SNES witch was still new at the time. I kept that Atari 2600 for 3 years and then got the SNES by trading it at a local game store. It got me $30.00 off of the SNES and I only payed $65.00 for it and it came with Super Mario World and Super Mario All Stars with two controllers. The 2600 was great, but it was even better trading it for an SNES and saving money lol.

On the FB 7 sports games, is it possible to play against the computer? It defaults to 2 player but claims its 1-2 player
