Atari Releasing More 2600 Retro Goodness

The ‘Atari “Retro” Handheld‘ is a throwback to the classic Atari experience, with a design in mind PURELY for the Atari Fan

With the immortalised ‘wood’ effect it comes packed with 50 classic games built in such as Asteroids®, Pong®, Centipede®, Missile Command®, Breakout®, Millipede® and more!

The handheld has a 2.4″ screen and A/V to display them on your TV. An HDMI adapter will also be available if you want to play Atari classics on your modern TV in HD!  The buttons are incredibly responsive and feature an analogue joystick in the style of the classic Atari joypad!

There is also going to be a plug and play TV console called the ‘Atari “Retro” Plug and Play TV Joystick‘, with many of the same features with an incredible build quality! The Joystick has an arcade style button on top of the controller and will connect to your TV with the included A/V cable (or HDMI with an available adapter). It will feature the same 50 built-in games as the handheld.

The range is officially licensed by Atari and is being developed by PQube.

“We are delighted to be working with Atari on this amazing project. Having sold over a million retro gaming consoles, we have taken the extensive feedback from press, retail and the consumer to develop new range of hardware that is faithful to the Atari brand”
David Pain PQube CEO
