Cool non-fiction: Making a portable Atari 2600

Check out this cool book:

Hacking Video Game Consoles: Turn Your Old Video Game Systems Into Awesome New Portables

by Heckendorn, Ben.

Now, I haven’t read the whole thing and I certainly haven’t attempted this yet, but what a cool book. Lots of photos (to go with lots of steps). It almost sounded vaguely nearly possible.

Of course, my beloved GP2X can emulate an Atari and a bunch of other systems, but that’s cheating.

 Is it finally time for me to get a soldering gun? No, this is beyond me … but stay tuned for an update on The Robo-Loom!
