AtariRC Prototype

My business partner and I have come up with something that I don't think I've seen on the scene before, and I'd like to share it in order to test the waters to see what kind of interest we might have in the product if we were to go into production with it. It is an infrared remote control system we call AtariRC. Designed for the 2600 VCS. It includes the pause modification, select, reset, and two joysticks (no paddles), all controlled via the IR transmitter that is powered by a 9 volt battery. It is very much a prototype right now, but is completely working.

We're unsure if we're going to sell them as completed products or just kits. We're unsure what all we are going to do with them in general honestly.

We're still working on design and trimming the costs down, as right now a finished product would be rather pricey (probably about $150 a set, $180 if we install for you.) We hope to drive that cost down, obviously. Finished product will probably be vastly physically different from this prototype.

Would any of you be interested in such a setup?

Here is a demo video I made of it(forgive my southern Indiana redneck twang...)

Thanks everyone
