Size of the Atari 2600 cartridges?

[Electric Rain]

Hi, quick question... can anyone tell me the dimensions of the Atari 2600 cartridges? Length, width, and height? Thanks.

Aw, come on. No one own's an old Atari 2600?

 

[Electric Rain]

...not a chance eh? :lol:

I own a bunch, but I don't intend to measure one when you'd obviously need to have one in hand to evaluate its appropriateness for whatever you want to do with it.

Well, that's true. But sense I don't, I figure I can at least get the basics of it.

No really... I need that size, if anyone can tell me......

The circuit itself is actually rather small.

Yeah, I know. I've done my research and I know everything I need to know about my project. But I can't start buying anything and begin building yet. I need to plan ahead first, and I need the dimensions to do so. Thanks,

P.S. If you guys must know, I'm making a portable. :wink: I know there are lots of different atari 2600 portables out there, but none of them will be like mine. :twisted:

goto G4techtv web site and look for the screensavers. There is a few guys there modding all sorts of stuff from old Nintendo to what we experiment with here, it is worth a look and might get a few answers.

I personally chatted with several of them. Even Leo back in the day.
