I have five copies of Atari 2600 Pac-Man, and if legend is to be believed there were twice as many made as there were Atari 2600s, so I don't feel bad about gutting one of them to make a nerdy clock. The ROM still works without the cartridge anyway. Doing it yourself is way cheaper. The clock parts were 6 bucks from a Michael's hobby store. It wasn’t so hard, actually.
