1. • • The Atari 2600 needs at least 7.5 volts and somewhere between 200-400 mA depending on the cartridge you’re playing. The original provided 9 volts at 500 mA. A little bit more amperage is fine. The Atari 2600 will only pull as many amps as it needs. Theoretically you can go up to 35 volts, but keep it below 12 volts to avoid overheating.

   Does Atari 2600 need a 9 volt adapter?

   • That said, as long as you use a 9-volt adapter, the Atari 2600 still has enough headroom to tolerate that overvoltage. The other things to concern yourself with are the tip and the polarity. It uses a standard 3.5mm jack common in audio applications. The tip is positive. These rules are the same as substituting any other AC adapter.

   Why is my Atari 2600 power supply not working?

   • The Atari 2600 power supply wasn’t as durable as the rest of the Atari 2600, which is nearly bulletproof. By far the most common issue with the Atari 2600 is a dead AC adapter. Fortunately, a suitable Atari 2600 AC adapter isn’t hard to find, even today.

   Where is the Atari 2600 power supply located?

   • The Atari 2600 power supply plugs into the back of the unit, near the center. It may be labeled “power adapter” or simply “power.” Regardless of how it may be labeled, it’s the only port that looks like the audio jack on a phone or MP3 player. The manual says it, but I’ll repeat it here.
