Retro video gaming simply wouldn’t exist without Atari, and the first widely appealing video game console is now playable again! Whether you owned your own Atari in the 1980’s, or you are yet to experience the original video gaming console, the Flashback 3 is sure to bring you right back to the heart of the eighties, especially with its retro joysticks for authentic Atari game play.

4.0 out of 5 stars Nostalgic return to 25-30 years ago 1 Jan 2012
Fun: 3.0 out of 5 stars   
Got this for my son for Christmas.

Most games are crappy-but then again that is a function of the original Atari itself and not this unit!
My main issue is having to turn off/on the unit to get back to the main menu.

I had an Atari when a kid so I was the one that ended up playing more than my son.

Total play time in the last week(2hr son , 4hrs for me). I can see this unit getting very little playtime :(

But how I enjoyed playing Yars Revenge again!!

Overall, you can't blame this unit. You know your getting some almost 30yr old games.
I've docked a star as you have to turn the unit off and back on to choose another game and also one of the games causes the unit to crash(I can't remember but will update with the game name later).

4.0 out of 5 stars Nice Nostalgia 29 Feb 2012
Amazon Verified Purchase
Fun: 4.0 out of 5 stars   
I bought this for my thirty two year old son to remind him of the good times he had playing these games when he was about twelve. Only downside for us is that the wonderful PITFALLS game is not on it. Never mind, it's still great.

I never used to own an Atari 2600, which this product emulates. As such, I didn't approach this product with the kind of nostalgic baggage that I suspect most other buyers do. Read more
