REVERSE Engineer Old Atari 7800 Consoles

[BILL HOULEHAN]

We need an Inventor/Engineer who has the ability to recreate in a new simple
system the 7800 console!

O'Shea, Ltd. is located in Kansas City, MO since 1975. We own 1 million
Atari game cartridges from the late 70's. Many of you know that the Atari
7800 uses 8-Bit graphics. We are looking for someone to remake and simplify
the 7800 inner workings of the consoles i.e.board, chips, wire layout, and
anything else that might be needed.

The units need to be able to plug into TV or computer, have a cartridge
slot, and be able to use 2 joysticks. We are looking for a easier way to
manufacture the system. Our plan is to manufacture 200,000 of these units
and kit them each with 5 of our Atari Cartridges & market them at retail
throughout the US.

If you have the engineering background and ability to reverse engineer the
old 7800 console and
are able to design this unit please contact us.

Thanks,

Stuck with a million catridges you can't sell on eBay huh?

There are a quite a few people around who have "reverse engineered"
the 7800/2600 console into a single FPGA etc, just plug your old
cartridge in etc. So probably no need to have someone re-invent the
wheel. Google should bring up plenty of results.
