What's a "MulitCart"?

I think it's awesome that he got rid of that 10-12 second Coleco opening title screen before you can launch a Coleco published game. I used to hate that. At least today's game consoles you don't have to wait for any kind of.....oh wait...nevermind.

My first console! 23 years ago or so? gee. I bought my favorite game for it a few years ago, but still don't have the console.

is it a phone? ._.

As cool as the blue LED is, it's a bit too new-school mod for a retro console. I would've gone with the old standard red. Other than that, amazing freakin' job!
