It probably doesn't have the hookups.
I managed to plug my Atari 2600 but can't get an image (dunno if it works, haven't tried it in years)
You plug them in via the RF (antena) cable. So yes they work once you tune them in.



If you don't mind a bit of hacking get an Atari Flashback 2.0 from eBay and do the cartridge mod. This will allow you to play Atari 2600 carts but output via composite video for a much better picture. Obviously ignore this if you are collecting the consoles. Me, I just like to play the games and I'd preffer a clearer picture so this is what I did.
any coaxle connector connection should work i cant see why notif you open the console you can make it use composite cables if you know how
I would imagine the image would be upscaled to hell meaning it would look awfull
those sharpass blocks could be dangerous
What we need is a new Atari 2600 released with HDMI and upscaling to 1080p.

I had a Sega Master System awhile ago and I tried to hook it up to my HDTV with the co-axel and I got no picture at all.Then I hooked it up to a regular TV and it worked fine. The only problem was finding some good games for it:P
it should work but u have to turn your resolution all the way down
With a bit of nip %26 tuck, I'm sure you can splice something up...just be sure to wear rubber boots.
I plugged my super nintendo to my 1080 hd tv (its a high end one), and to my surprise star fox looked great on it.
