Wow! Crazy & fun tech.
For MovieCart Atari 2600
I'd watched a couple of videos from well known Atari content creators and it convinced me that I needed to buy one of these.
What I didn't know was how good the overall experience was going to be. I received my MovieCart very quickly (10 days from ordering, and I am in the UK) and well packaged. It came as a PCB with front and end stickers ready to go. I had already set a spare doner Combat cart aside... every Atari fan has multiple Combat carts.
After removing the labels from my doner cart shell fitting the PCB was easy, I just had to cut a small section out for where the SD card goes in. I recommend an SD expander for easier insertion, I got mine from Amazon. After I fitted the new labels I was left with a very professional looking item, well apart from my slightly rough cut. 🤷🏻🤣
The cart comes with an SD card which was preloaded with a public domain movie, a nice sample of what can be achieved. The software used to create your own content is free and I have started to make some short music videos. I'm going to dive into movies soon. Good tutorial videos are provided on YouTube, so get one ordered and jump in!
Overall it's a cool curiosity and a bit of fun tech.
I'd like to see a music cart media player with improved audio quality and just the album art displayed, but that aside, this is an awesome bit of tech, buy it.
