Atari 2600 Handheld - Phoenix (2004)


FRONT OF UNIT
1) Backlit 3.5" (diagonal) TFT active matrix LCD display
2) Built-in D-pad (joystick control) and trigger
3) Built-in paddle controller and trigger
4) Speaker and volume control.
5) Picture tint control (use small screwdriver through the hole) Tint can vary by battery type used (Ni-CD, Ni-MH, alkaline) so this allows you to adjust it depending on which you use.
6) 2.5mm mini-jack input allows you to hook up a Ni-MH charger and juice up the batteries while still in the system. (Requires special charger or adapter)
7) Enamel paint (main case) with quality laser-cut engraving plastic plates (over the screen and controls)

REAR OF UNIT
8) Game cartridge insert. Having it in the back keeps the unit smaller and also keeps the cartridge out of your way when playing.
9) Difficulty switch sets game to Easy or Hard. (Used in older games, some newer ones)
10) Brightness (video amplification) adjustment. (As with tint, use small screwdriver, adjust to taste)
11) (6) AA battery compartment (Tab and magnetic closure)
12) Spot where I sign my name and personally number the unit (This one is #00002 FYI BTW)
