Here's an idea- if you want to do one that badly, and for a product like this, why not ASK the guy who created it? Instead, it's yet another wasted opportunity.

Some of the games included or omitted are questionable. 3 different baseball games are included, but only 1 of 3 football games. EarthWorld and FireWorld are included, but not WaterWorld. All but 2 RealSports games ( Football and Tennis) are included, but one of them ( Basketball) was an unreleased prototype. The manual includes the briefest of descriptions for each game (1 or 2 sentences), and Adventure has a 2nd hidden room, the location of which is revealed the same way the hidden room in the original was, and the room says “The 7800 is reborn. Thanks to: CV. JL. SM. GA. KL. NS. RE. CR. WS. JR.”. games, whereas the released versions used the NES versions (see below). In other words, these Blast! systems are being deceptively marketed.and added 5 different games (all sports titles), which now has its own category (with its own cut-and-paste graphics screen):

It did however drive up sales for itself and all the systems currently in the market at the time, and helped motivate other competitors to enter the market. Instead of celebrating the home version of an arcade game, why not, oh I don't know, celebrate the anniversary of the VCS - the system I’m pretty sure I am not the target market for these AFB units, but I would say that the AFBX is very close in quality to the Nintendo mini consoles. The challenges that AtGames have are multiple. Removing Pitfall! and River Raid made sense as, being 3rd-party games, they never belonged on this anyway.
