It uses the tried-and-true 6 batteries like the Pheonix did. I get email requesting a lot of things (mostly Xbox laptops and PS360 controllers) but your best bet for something I’ll actually have time to do (and is reasonably priced) is still an Atari 2600 portable.

I assume it's the same deal with the 2600 cartridges. Perhaps you could fabricate smaller cases for the cartridge guts to increase portability? Maybe you could cram 5 or so game guts into a single cartridge? Maybe a switch on the cartridge could select the game? I'm just an idea guy with no electronics skills, BTW, so this may not be possible, although I don't see why not.
