Plaion and Atari have announced a modern version of the Atari 2600 called the Atari 2600+. This device is based on the original and can even play original modules (Atari 2600 and 7800), writes Plaion in the press release. This should be a dream for Atari fans who still have games at home.
But there are also modern features such as an HDMI output and different resolutions, as well as a widescreen mode.
The feel of the controllers, the switches and the wood grain on the surface of the console should give you real eighties flair.
Atari 2600+ will be released on November 17, 2023 and will cost 120 euros. The pre-order is already possible, but for the time being probably only in the USA. Pre-order options will probably be available in this country shortly. The CX40+ and CX30+ paddle controllers will also be sold separately in the future.
The console comes with a controller and a cartridge containing ten games:
- Adventure
- Combat
- Dodge ’em
- Haunted House
- Maze Craze
- Missile Command
- Real sports volleyball
- Surround
- video pinball
- Yar’s Revenge
In recent years, various game publishers have released reissues of retro consoles, including several mini versions, such as the Sega Mega Drive Mini or the SNES Mini. The consoles were often sold out after the launch. Retro is well received by the fans. We’re going to celebrate with you and show you the best retro games of all time.
