Atari 2600+

>$130
>HDMI output
>console comes with 10 games on one cartridge that doesn't even have a menu

Who is the target audience for this? Who is interested in playing extremely basic games from over 40 years ago?

        It'll play the original cart if you have it. The whole point is to play old Atari games in HD.

    nuAtari is trying to cash in on an era nobody has nostalgia for. People who may have grown up with Atari are in their late 50s and early 60s now and don't care about vidya anymore. If they could even figure out how to change their TV's input to use the damn thing.

        No they don't. These are the clueless older end of X and younger end boomers. They are literally just as bad as whatever boomer stereotype you can come up with.

        They're a bit too old and fall under the "too old to be good at tech" demographic. 40s down to maybeee very late 20s is the sweet spot. groups younger than that grew up on retard smartphone tablet shit and can't problem solve tech.

      The Amico also did the same thing.

      I wonder if there's some financial analyst grifting these defunct video game producers into thinking this is a viable market. But for the fact the Chameleon was an outright scam I'd argue that'd be a third one.

        The Amico at least tried to be its own console. This is just a repackaged 2600.

      As a young kid in the 80s I thought Atari was pretty lame and antiquated. It was really only when Nintendo came out that games become more than a fad and could actually be enjoyed for hours. I never knew anyone, child or adult, who had anything more than a whiff of nostalgia over the crappy 70s games where you move a single pixel around on the screen. There was really never a time that anyone had nostalgia for Atari they’ve always just kind of been there from the 80s onward.

    Why is Ganker always such pissbabies over Atari? This is what Nintendo, Sega, and the rest should have done instead of that mini shit.

    The 2600 isn't even that good outside of Activision games and the Supercharger. Colecovision was always way better, the thing is basically a MSX computer and in some ways can outdo the stock Famicom (most of the stuff you associate with the NES is just in the cartridge rather than what the system itself has stock)

      Colecovision was so good that Sega ripped off of it. They're so compatible that there was a Telegames console that played both. The Famicom is also heavily based on it. Probably since it featured the first home release of Donkey Kong.

    The entire Atari game collection is a couple megabytes in size. What the FUCK is wrong with them? This is worse than buying one of those terrible knockoff consoles

      Funny how you didn't see this complaint for the NES mini and they only included like 30 preloaded titles.

      Would have been even more expensive then.

        The cheapest Tang Nano board is $15, but you're right, developing a clone console that can play 100% of the games is more expensive than just putting an SBC running Stella in a pretty box.

    Fun fact... when adjusted for inflation the revenue of the console market in 1980 is still larger than that of the entire console industry today.

    I had an atari which looked like the one in that render. If you turned it off/on quick you'd get corrupted games.
    Adventure, Asteroids, Pitfall, Berserk I think were about my faves. The rest were shit.

    Atari 2600, while a certified classic, has way too primitive games for today's standards.
    2600+ can be a good gift for your grandpa's birthday I suppose.
