Cool, thanks!
My Atari Flashback is just the pre-loaded one. I was looking at the hack to make it play cartridges, but I don't need another system to play 2600 games. That and the one hack I was looking at looked pretty dumb, the way the cartridge stuck out of the system.
You've got a lot of my favorites right there.
I was tinkering with the idea of doing a MAME cabinet. I'm not big on emulators for the retro consoles but, done correctly, it's cool for the old coin-ops.

Tempest is the one video game in the bunch that simply cannot be emulated - you've gotta have that vector (EDIT: not raster!) display to really get sucked into that game.
