      VERY cool! LOVE that they have so many retro system on display to play! Also LOVE that Atari 2600 Kiosk. I remember playing on those back in the day. :)

      PS - I didn't know the CX40 single button works on the 7800 version either. I need to go give that a try.

      I used to buy from them when they were in Hillsboro. Excellent shop. How much did Gravitar go for and did they have any more?

      $7, but it was their last copy...they have several mint 2600 and 7800 games!

      Interesting thing about Burger Time is that it might be owned by SNK/Playmore now.
