    They are a lot of fun. I haven't played Warlords in ages until plugging in the paddle version. ThinkGeek.com has them too: http://www.thinkgeek.com/geektoys/cubegoodies/8...

    Is that a joystick in your pocket or are you happy to see me?

    Not to nitpick, but the games on the 2600 were not 8-bit.

    This is kind of cool, but who is going to carry around the cord and these things, and use them as keychains?!?!

    I'm still waiting for the Atari Flashback that has EVERY Atari 2600 VCS game on it, from every manufacturer of the era.

    I know it will never happen, but it would be nifty if it did.

    The Atari 2600 did indeed have an 8 bit processor - it ran at a paltry 1.19 MHz, but the MOS Technology 6507 was 8 bit nonetheless.

    Strangely enough, the Intellivision had a 16 bit CPU that ran even slower...894.886 kHz!

    Atari 2600 WAS 8-bit.
