Activision Anthology... mmm... tasty!

So I picked up my next "compilation" GBA cart yesterday. Good stuff. A
sizeable collection of games, presented nicely, good music, saveable high
scores, patches, etc. Can't beat that for $20. I hope that they take the
engine from this game and release a similar "atari 2600 anthology" package.
Granted, I could get a rom cart and a programmer, then muck an emulator and
all the roms on the cart myself... but I'm not anywhere near that
motivated.

Well, Atari did announce a 2600 anthology package for current consoles not
too long ago, so maybe it will also make an appearance on the GBA.

Heh, unfortunatly a working 2600 emulator available for flash carts is
virtually non-existant.
