Get ready for some gaming nostalgia this holiday season with the Atari Retro Handheld and Atari Retro Plug & Play Joystick! These should both make great gifts for any middle-aged gamer (like me) in your life. Check out some videos for the products below.
Add a retro twist to your gift guide with two brand new products from the iconic gaming brand. Take Atari on-the-road with you, or fire up those classic games in your living room with family and friends!
The Atari ‘Retro’ Handheld (pictured above) packs everything that was great about the Atari 2600 into a compact, portable handheld unit with a 2.4 inch color screen. Sporting the immortalized wood veneer effect of the original console, it has 50 classic games built-in. It will also come with an A/V output so you can hook it up to your TV.
The Atari Plug & Play Joystick (picture below) builds on the original Atari joystick design, with the inclusion of a new arcade-style button on top of the controller to make firing even easier! It features the same 50 games as the handheld – including Asteroids, Pong, Centipede, Missile Command, Breakout, Millipede & more.
The Atari Retro Handheld and Atari Retro Joystick launch on October 26th, 2018 in the UK and is available to pre-order now from Amazon UK. No word yet on a release date for the U.S. but we will keep you posted.
