Are you talking about Stella?
Yup, thats the one I use
But one of the problems with playing on your computer
is the screen size...
Playing on a 31" TV or projection TV is *much* nicer. :) Plus it is
easier to use a *real* joystick to paddle.
Yes, these are two very good reasons to use the real thing. (and of
course, its just cooler to use the real thing, but when space it tight,
at least the emulator lets you play)
There is also the CuttleCart, which allows you to play
downloaded ROMs on
a real 2600.
Humm.... that sounds like something I want to locate. :-)

And thusly chris spake:
The homepage is at http://www.schells.com/index.html ... Unfortunately the
2600 version is sold out, but a 7800 one is one its way, which will also
work with 2600 games.
Cheers,
Bryan

I have also seen schematics for several home brew solutions. The simplest
being EPROM based, and the fanciest having battery backed RAM.
