The only way this is going to happen is if you do an all-in-one Atari box that not only does the Jag but the 2600, 5200, 7800, and Lynx (and maybe throw in the ST while we're at it). The Jag has too small a user base to make it a standalone box.

Yes, but can it play Doom?

I wonder… what else will we see in the future, from Cinemaware’s catalog of hit titles?
I would like to see Lords of the Rising Sun and Wings.

Nothing wrong with the Recharged version but I want to know if they are going to release the original arcade versions of both Berzerk and Frenzy.
-
The compilations need to be programmed to accept them through either an adapter such as the 2600-Daptor, the newer ICode adapter (which I happen to have), or having them converted to USB and I do not think they have unless it is something of an Easter Egg similar to the hidden encoder feature in Tempest 2000 (Jaguar). With that said, they can be patched if there is enough interest.

I only found out about the non-karateka titles after posting that, and one not both of them reading a few comments elsewhere. The remasters of the old titles I hadn't seen anything solid on about other than they existed, most nerds seemed to dive into how nice the emulation and choices were of the originals which is nice. I can do the original, have Karateka on some FC multicarts(vintage, and modern) and could do the same with the GB one too. I'm not a big fan, but it's nice to pop the game up on occasion to see how far I can get before I get sucker punched as it's unique in a better way with a Prince of Persia meets the non-suck bits of Karate Champ.
I hope they do this for Prince of Persia as I'd be well way over the point of even questioning buying that. I've enjoyed the DOS, NES, GB, and GBC releases of that one.
In the early 90's I spent a year gametesting for Broderbund Software and I helped test both the DOS and Amiga versions of PoP. I'm curious to see how they could do this if Ubisoft would let them. Fun fact: one of the other testers was bored with the game and he decided to try to play the game only using the sound cues from the built-in speaker and with the monitor turned off thus going in blindfolded. I believe that he made it about 75% of the way through.

Since you listed the GTA games I also recommend Bully which is also done by Rockstar Games.

I got one of these too with hopes of maybe getting it to work with T2K on the Jaguar some day.

Have you looked at the Wii U modding scene to see if they've had success in getting around some of these problems? I've also heard that there are some who are trying to use modded Switches in place of the tablet but I have not read up on that lately.
-
Or you could just softmod it and put everything onto a Micro SD card with appropriate adapter so you would no longer need to use the UMD drive. However, I also understand that there are those who wish to keep theirs stock so this is helpful for those with this problem. Personally, I now use my PS Vita with Adrenaline to play all of my PSP games.

The Chronicles of Riddick: Escape From Butcher Bay had a Director's Cut version on the PC that included additional stuff not on the OG Xbox version. The Director's Cut was given a remastered treatment when it was bundled with the sequel Assault on Dark Athena that is only available on the X360 and PS3.

What I like to know if it is possible to switch them out with the new hall effect sticks that are being used in the new third party controllers that have been coming out recently.
-
The only one I can think of that hasn't already been mentioned is Lollipop Chainsaw.
-
I wish there was a board that could be put inside that hooks up to the main board that would allow you to use USB based external DVD-ROM drives and replace the junky internal drives.
-
I have a Mac also but I would rather for someone to make a Mac port of this once all of the major kinks are worked out on the Windows side of things or perhaps make a core of this for RetroArch.

Dallas (and kinda Ft Worth) is incredible. I think we are probably the hidden capital of the retro-gaming world (in the Western Hemisphere). Not only do we have multiple retro game shops (both chains and mom n pop), but we also have the Free Play arcade chain as well as a handful of other arcades that specialize in classic games. We've also got multiple cons in the area every year AND the National Video Game Museum. On top of all that, the area is big enough and populated enough that if you are willing to put in the work on Facebook marketplace, Offer Up, Craigslist etc, there are still genuine deals to be found "in the wild." Sure, the Nintendo stuff gets soaked up fast, but I once got Intellivision Sears Backgammon and Checkers here for like $20. I bought my Astrocade and Vectrex for criminally low prices, and there is TONS of second-hand retro computer stuff changing hands all the time.
I keep trying to tell people that DFW is a destination for retro gamers. An awesome long weekend would be to come here for the Texas Pinball Festival or the Let's Play gaming Expo (or both). I think most people would go home having seen more retro game stuff than they have in their entire lives. I get to experience it every year.
. . . I should go to an arcade today
South Texas here has the Game Over stores (three here in San Antonio and three more in the Austin area) plus at least one GameFellas (Austin), and the Pinballz Arcade (also in Austin). Game Over also hosts the Game Over con every July at the Palmer Convention in downtown Austin every July. San Antonio used to host PAX South until they gave up on us during the pandemic.

Have you actually compared the image they produce side by side?
Years ago I had a Power Macintosh with S-Video ports in the back for limited video recording. At that time I acquired a Nintendo S-Video Monster Cable and was doing a little playing around with the recording feature using my N64. I used the regular Nintendo brand S-video cable for some Turok 2 and the image didn't look too great. I then switched out the regular cable with the Monster Cable and it looked pretty close to RGB and looked great. I would later acquire the Monster Cable versions of the PS S-Video, PS Component, and OG Xbox Component. Whenever I need to use my systems on my old TV I use these.
The regular first party Sony S-Video cables should do the job for your purposes but I wanted to share my knowledge and information on the Monster Cables with everybody here as they are the absolute best for the consoles they are made for. BTW, considering that these cables were limited run and they are of high quality I think $40 is a good price for one. Certainly beats several hundred dollars for the official GameCube Component Video cable.

In my experience the Monster Cable is better than the official Sony one due to thicker, better wires, better plugs, and, most importantly, better ground shielding which eliminates a lot of interference.
-
I have a Monster Cable PlayStation S-Video cable. It has the best build quality of any cable that I have used for my PlayStation units and that translated to outstanding video quality. But that one is going to be hard to find and expensive to boot. Still, if you happen to stumble onto one and the price looks good, snag it, you won't regret it.

It's an open source ROM dumper. The unit shown has multiple cartridge ports including one for GBA games and a controller plug for the N64 so you can dump the Controller Packs. Even though there are adapters you can attach to it for Atari carts I would like to see a deluxe version that includes pretty much all systems plus a DreamCast controller plug for dumping the VMUs, a card port for GameCube save cartridges, one for OG Xbox, and one for PS1/2.
