We were there for the last time a couple of weeks before they closed. I'll miss the place, both for the food and the video games. The garlic knots and cinnamon knots were tasty.

I went back to WalMart today. The Sega Flashback has wired controllers.

Sorry, I didn't. The Sega system as after my time, so I don't have a ton of interest in that one. I'll try and remember to check next time I'm there.

I was at the Walmart by work today and they had all four consoles on an end cap in the video game department. Price was $39.99 each. I had picked up the Coleco and Intellivision consoles at Toys R Us previously. I picked up the Atari one today. The deciding factor was that it was a variant model that had wired controllers. I read some less than positive reviews about the wireless ones so I had been holding off on buying the Atari.

Atari Flashback 5 New Features (Dream List)
david_mn replied to Moonpig's topic in AtGames Flashback and Portable Consoles
I picked up one today at Walmart. I was suprised to see that it had wired controllers. The ones I saw at Toys R Us when I bought the ColecoVision and Intellivision consoles had wireless controllers. I don't remember seeing there were going to be differences for the Atari FB5 at different stores. -
Breaking news: Intellivision flashback coming to retail
david_mn replied to Rev's topic in Intellivision / Aquarius
So, he's reviewing something designed to recreate an old console without knowing much about the original console? No wonder he doesn't like them. -

I saw the listing of the event on their Facebook page. I'm gong to try and get over there on Sunday and check out the place. -

Hidden Treasures? What's that? (checks Google) What!?! How did I not know about this? I live in North Saint Paul. -
Something like that. Actually, I meant to say that I plan on picking up the Atari and Intellivision Flashback systems. I have no interest in the Sega Genesis.

We haven't been to DeLeo's in a few months. Although, my daughter mentioned the other day that she'd like to go back sometime soon. The last time we were there I didn't play any games because Galaga was gone. -
I picked one up at the local TRU last night. I learned that you can't trust their website for what's in stock. According to that they were supposed to only have the CV Flashback in stock, but they actually had all four models out. I'm planning on picking up the other two later. I've played Zaxxon and Cosmic Avenger so far.

I noticed that it isn't available for the ship to home option on the TRU website. Probably means all their remaining stock has been allocated to the stores?
