I have not bought a game console for myself in ages, I can honestly say I might be buying the Atari VCS 800. The more I read about it, the more I am itching to buy it. It is perfect for old folks like me. I am excited about the old-school controller. It looks sharp and slimmer. Can’t wait till this gets released.
The 800 comes with 8GB RAM that is fully upgradeable. Users will experience an ever-expanding Atari world of all-new games, classic and remastered favorites, streaming multimedia and personal apps; or can easily make their own. The powerful AMD Ryzen processor featuring Radeon Graphics Technology can handle it all, including 4K HDR streaming, while the all-new Atari Classic Joystick and Atari Modern Controller make everything easy and fun.
The Wireless Classic Joystick is a modern spin on the original Atari 2600 joystick. With Bluetooth capability, vibration and LED light effects.
The Atari VCS 800 Black Walnut All-in Bundle includes an 8GB Atari VCS PC/console hybrid, a wireless modern controller, a wireless classic joystick and a free copy of Atari Vault, which includes 100 classic Atari arcade and console games.
