Atari 2600+ Announced

[Ravenfreak]

I'm not sure if there are any Atari fans here, but yesterday Atari announced the Atari 2600+ which is a emulation box that can play Atari 2600 and Atari 7800 cartridges. It also comes with a multi cart with around 10 games on it. Not all games are compatible with the unit however, so if you do have a lot of old Atari games just be weary that some of your games may not work on the unit. It's $129 which seems to be a bit too expensive IMO especially for a emulator rather than a FPGA console. You can read more about it and purchase the Atari 2600+ from Atari's website:

I have a 2600 and a 5600 lying around. They're ok, but never got me hooked. I respect Atari, but I'm good without them
