In Topic: New Atari Compatible Console & Controllers

I would vote for better output than regular composite. I've got enough ways to get composite output from various hacked Atari consoles, and the Flashback. I'd love to see those colors really saturated on a modern TV. By all means include composite for max compatibility, but I'd be thrilled by component or at least S-video. Something super modern like HDMI seems like it would be far more trouble than it's worth, but offering higher band color I think would do the trick. Besides, you could make claim thta he games will look like they've never looked before.

I've got the MCC (multi classic computer) mini emulator/console with VGA output. It does atari, and I've got to say I'm loving the look of these old games on a dynamic and modern display!

Oh yeah, and keep the two audio oscillators separate so that homebrew programmers can play with left & right sound placement like "Skeleton Plus"!

Yeah... the challenge with the 32X is finding all the screwy cables. It had to buy several setups to get all of the hookups. I think that there are only a handful of games that are worthwhile for the 32X, but it's still kind of a cool idea. Too bad it got pooched.

Don't know why it's been slipping down on my to-do list, but If thegoldenax is still planning on dying extra XM case shells for the special 25th Anniversary Edition of the console that he has planned, I should pick up another unit so I can leave one stock, while the other goes into the fancy purpliefied case :D

This is the first I'm hearing of this... do you mean a replacement 7800 case? That would be rather wicked. Where can I learn more?
