http://www.mega-hz.de/Angebote/THE!CART/THE!CART.htmHowever it is not as easy as with the 2600 because the A8 had cassettes, floppies -and- cartridge games so the formats can differ a bit.
I've been looking for exactly the same for a long time, I got the MyIDE cartridge which was developped by our good friend Mr.Atari but it is a bit too technical for me to handle.
The!cart looks easier to handle and has more lots more free memory (128Mb). That is probably not enough for ALL games ever made for the system, but you can for sure have the bulk of the best on there. Great thing is it also plays large homebrew games like Space Harrier.
Another big bonus for me : the Studio software runs on Windows, Linux AND Mac.
I'm planning to buy a The!cart too.....bring on the holidays
