Question about RGA-1360 game switcher

Post by vskid »

I was at a thrift store the other day, and I bought this. Its a 6 game switcher for atari, model # RGA-1360. I was wondering if it is rare and/or what it is worth. It could also supply you with 6 cart slots, if it is worth more that way.

PS: I edited out the price tag on it (thats the white square) so that you wouldn't know how much I paid for it, incase you buy it.

Ok, thanks. I couldn't find anything about it. If anyone wants it, make an offer (because I don't have an atari). I have no clue if it works or not, since it seems to not be worth much I may take it apart in a couple days, so offer before it gets sacrificed.

Looks like a (possibly) cheap source for cartridge slots to rewire to Flashback 2's! 8)

I got one if you're interested. I haven't tested it though.

You could hardwire it to the board or run it through the cartridge slot add on.

I'm going to use it for a Flashback 2 portable and keep it intact so I can have 6 games in it at once. I'll just get rid of the cord and fake cartridge that plugs into the atari and hard wire it in. Now I just need a flashback 2...

Hm, if you'd be interested in buying it, I will get started as soon as I get a Flashback 2 (if you could provide one that would be great). Just be warned, it might not look the greatest, but it will pwn all the single slot systems with its six slotted awesomeness!

To be honest, I'm not sure, as it largely depends on how much it would cost, and I'm totally broke right now :( But it's not like other people wouldn't be interested as well, since no one has made any cool Flashback 2 portables.

I double that interest, could you make it a tutorial sort of thing I have both of these items and they aren't getting much use, I and loads of other people would enjoy this in tutorial form.
