Need live help with VCS flash boot

  • - Atari VCS update instructions failed.

I asked for live help but no reply.

This is an expensive console and the experience partly ruined Christmas for my kids. Unacceptable

I sold 2 and kept one but I like mine but did work to make it where I want it but, the reason why I am here I don’t care about a refund just a career to make Atari remain the number one video game.
