If you go to the original link for the preorder, the Flashback 2+ is now on Atari's website for sale.

http://www.atari.com...flashback2_plus

It is also advertised on the Atari main page.

I have also noticed that Atari's website now fully sports the classic Atari logo.


I guess that means the one I ordered with the cached page will actually come!!!

And it's now ten bucks more @ $39.99 with no free Atari 2600 t-shirt.

Glad I didn't buy the one on ebay for over $80!

[Guitarman]

It's funny because yesterday, when I put through an order from the google cached preorder page, it allowed me to complete the order at the $29.99 price. Now when I try it with the cached link, it takes me to the current $39.99 order page. I guess I got lucky!!

Given Curt's notation regarding the Video Touch Pad (and by extension, the Children's Pad & Keyboard controllers).. I find it odd that one of their bullet points is:

Quote

Backward Compatible with all existing 2600 controllers

Sounds a little like false advertising if the system can't physically power these controllers.

FYI the promotional code ATARI50 still works for 50% off.  Just ordered 2 FB2+ for $55 shipped.  Price for one shipped is $35.

[Mirage]

$35 for one with the coupon isn't too bad, especially if someone doesn't already have an older FB2. $55 shipped for just one like they're charging seems super crazy to me. I think I'll take my chances to see if they end up at retail for $20 like the first ones did, since I already have a FB2.

[atwwong]

Still can't order from Canada.

**Edit**
But why bother when I already got some!

+1 to you. BOGO is a good deal especially when shipping stays at $15 so now shipping seems more reasonable too. lol not that I need 2 but perhaps a present for a friend.

[evg2000]

thanks for mentioning the 50% off coupon, I wouldn't have bought if it wasn't for that, so of course I bought 2.

This code isn't working for me. Is this from a particular ordering page?

[KoolKing]

That's interesting.  The site now says the code isn't valid for FB2+.  My order is still listed as pending.  Curious to see if they'll honor it.

[Guitarman]

My order is listed as backordered.

Mine says pending shipment

Got an email from Atari saying my order was fulfilled along with a tracking number!  Was starting to get worried there

Me too got my email with the same thing

[nathanallan]

An email just arrived from Atari.com, advertising the FB2+ and Sam & Max Beyond Time and Space. I'm subscribed to the email newsletter, surprised to have gotten one so late in the game of them being offered.

[Austin]

oi.. I just got paid and was going to buy one, but only if that promo code worked.. Looks like I'm late again (That's twice now).. d'oh! Guess I will be waiting for a store released (*crosses fingers*).

[Guitarman]

Mine's been shipped, so I got it for the $29.00. Curious if I'll get a t-shirt.

[geosteve]

I ordered one midweek using the 50% promo, and got the email that it has been shipped, expected to arrive on 3/16  

[coyo5050]

Got my 2 today! Oddly packed, really good cardboard shipping box with no packing inside. Everything was fine, probably cause it shipped UPS, Lol better than a bubble mailer

[geosteve]

mine arrived yesterday, same packaging as the above post.  opened and works great!

[HatNJ]

Does anyone know if the 50% code is working again?
If not $39.99+shipping totals to be way to high

I found an Atari site 10% off code in the Taco Bell discs:  r014nd0
