Anyone has those "console in a controller" things?

Talk about just about anything else that is non-gaming here, but keep it clean

Anyone has those "console in a controller" things?

I'm talking about those Atari or Sega controllers which you can plug straight into the TV and play some games on.

Any impressions on them? Sure, they're not an actual console (unless you hack it to read the games in the carts, as I think they have all the chips inside for it)... But they're quite portable and still let you play on a big TV (unlike handhelds, which of course are very portable as well).

What sort of batteries do those things take anyway?

I got one with pac man and pole position and galaxian and a few others. It was only $5 at gamestop online. Free shipping coupon used. It's a pretty solid piece of hardware. Emulation is flawless. The controls are good, except for pacman.
