The PSX/2 has USB which would be much more suited to the task. However the software will be the issue. And the hardware will probably cost more than it's worth.

A much better idea is to hack in a cartridge slot into the Activision Classics TV Game. See link.

: Hey guys. This is a bit off topic but - a friend of mine got an email at his work from a guy that owns over 1.3 million atari 2600 cartriges.
: He wanted to see if my friend's company could create some kind of hardware that you could use to plug an Atari 2600 cart to the xbox, cube or PS2.
: I responded saying that I doubt it's possible because the only inputs they have are the CD/DVD and maybe the NIC.
: I also told him that it's probably a waste because there are so many software emulators for Atari and hardware that allows you to plug a cart into your PC.

: About that hardware - does anyone have a link to a piece of HW that will allow 2600 carts to be used in a PC?

: Wondering what you all think of this.

: Thanks,
: Jeff
