About this deal

First console on the market to integrate Atari 2600, 5200, 7800, and Arcade games into a single platform. Want to relive the golden era of gaming? We have a wide selection of games like Mini Arcade machine, Nintendo: Game and Watch Super Mario Bros Game, Handheld Gaming Console with 200 Games that you will enjoy with your friends and family. Why not browse our range of gaming headsets as well? Enjoy crystal clear sound quality and communicate with players online wearing our quality headsets. As we come to view games as art, more and more, I think people want to understand all the pieces that went into that and all the history around it, but yet the medium is games so we probably should interact with it in a different way,” Rosen noted. The Atari VCS Vault contains a decent selection of Atari 2600 and 1980s arcade classics. Some of my favorite old Atari 2600 games are here, like Yars Revenge. Then there are some weird choices, like Basic Math. There are also a LOT of sports games. I don't even like playing sports games from 2 years ago, I definitely don't have any nostalgia for Bowling on Atari 2600. Out of over 80 Atari 2600 games included with the VCS, 17 are straight sports games. I didn't count all the racing games, of which there are plenty (but not Gran Prix, the one I wanted most). There are some classics on here, like Missile Command, Adventure, and a couple others, but overall it's a weak selection. Starting up and logging in, you're met with a navigation screen where the VCS apps live. There's a cool Atari VCS Companion app you can install on your mobile device that lets you control the system from your smartphone. If you've ever used a Roku device and had to replace your lost remote with the Roku app, it's pretty similar in functionality. It mimics the functionality of a mouse and keyboard, which is nice because some of the "apps" require a mouse and keyboard to work at all.

Game save options: 2 save slots via on-board memory and 2 save slots via Micro SD Card (not included) The Atari 2600+ is not to be confused with the Atari VCS, an AMD Ryzen-powered (but aging) mini desktop PC that also emulates old Atari games but does a few other things on top of that. The handheld unique TATE mode - turn it vertically and you can play games as some were intended in the arcades. This is great for shooters like Truxton and it's simple and easy to switch modes. In my Evercade EXP review I did find the slim design of the console made it a little cramped to use TATE mode. Each small arcade cabinet comes in a collector's box, complete with original art and a screen to display your small piece of gaming history. The detail is wonderful, for example the Ms. Pac-Man cabinet is made from wood, just as it would have been originally. It almost feels redundant to justify the 2600's placement as one of Atari's better consoles, or even as one of the greatest consoles in the history of gaming. It's the system that was in the house of every child in the late-70s and early-80s throughout the world.

A retro gaming console is a modern device that can play old games on new TVs. These are usually mini replicas of old consoles and come with pre-installed games running on emulation. Some retro consoles are new, such as the Evercade series, that feature bespoke games and emulated titles from the 8, 16 and 32 bit eras. Which retro gaming console is best? The Atari Gamestation Pro (DGUNL-7012) is the first console on the market to integrate the Atari 2600, 5200, 7800, Arcade and bonus titles into a single platform. Included are heart-pounding favorites like Adventure®, Missile Command®, Asteroids®, Centipede® and many more! While not in the company’s plans as yet, the Atari CEO also showed enthusiasm for a hypothetical handheld system that can play its retro games on the go like a Nintendo Switch. The model you get depends on where you live. US gamers can buy the angular North American Super Famicom version with purple accents and controller buttons. The Super NES version, with its more colourful, rounded design with red, blue, yellow, and green buttons is for UK users. Everything else is pretty much as you remember, and it's we found it heartwarming to see it in our living room again. For instance, the remastered “Haunted House” is an elaborate stealth game where players evade colorful ghosts and monsters – but it retains the exploration mechanics of its namesake that simply featured floating eyes roaming a dark, 2D maze.The Sega Mega Drive Mini 2 or Sega Genesis Mini 2 (for US) is an excellent follow-up to the previous small retro console, the Sega Mega Drive Mini. This edition features 60 games, including bonus titles that have never been released before. The eye-catching titles, however, are the mix of Sega Mega CD games that feature in the Sega Mega Drive Mini 2's roster. The Super NES Classic comes in number 3 behind the NES Mini, and is equally well-built and offers another glimpse into Nintendo's development. The SNES was the successor to the NES, and as such its games are more advanced. Like the NES Mini this replica is also very expensive. Digital Eclipse is the best in the world at what they do,” said Atari CEO Wade Rosen. “They have a deep love and respect for the history of the games industry, and are renowned for developing critically acclaimed projects based on historic franchises. Featuring over 200 officially-licensed classics, including Pong®, Asteroids®, Breakout, Warlords, and bonus titles!
