If you're old enough to remember the days when consoles were made of wood and powered by the hopes and dreams of a better future, you might be excited to know Atari is bringing its classic 70s/80s console, the Atari 2600, back as a"modern day faithful recreation" - and it'll even play original cartridges if you still have some lying around behind your Zimmer frame.
The Atari 2600+, as this updated version of the classic console is officially known, has been birthed into the world through the frantic conjoining of Atari and Plaion , and is set to release on 17th November for £99.99/€119.99/$129.99, which is, if nothing else, cheaper than it would have cost you back in 1977.
This new-fangled update features a couple of modern-day revisions including HDMI output, USB power, and multiple screen resolutions, but the selling point here, really, is how close is adheres to the Atari 2600's iconic design - wood panel frontage and all.
Additional single-game cartridges - including Berzerk Enhanced Edition and Mr. Run and Jump - will be available on launch day, and these will cost £24.99/€29.99/$29.99 each, which certainly sounds like an optimistic price point on Plaion's part. Knob-twizzling fans can also purchase a bundle of two replica CX-30 Paddle Controllers for £29.99/€34.99/$39.
