Atari 2600+ 2600 Magazine: The Hacker Quarterly - Summer 2024

The Atari 2600+ is designed to resemble and feel like the original 4-switch Atari 2600, which was launched in 1980. This modern version also supports Atari 7800 games, features a wide screen mode, easily connects to a modern TV, and includes a 10-in-1 game cartridge with classic Atari titles.

The new Atari 2600+ builds on the legacy of the original machine, incorporating modern quality of life features such as HDMI output, USB power, and multiple screen resolutions, while including an exact replica of the original CX40+ Joystick. The cartridge slot is backwards compatible with hundreds of original Atari 2600 and 7800 games, and the '10 Games in 1' cartridge includes iconic titles such as Adventure, Combat, Dodge 'em, Haunted House, Maze Craze, Missile Command, Volleyball, Surround, Video Pinball, and Yars' Revenge.

The Atari 2600+ has been lovingly crafted using modern technology, with the movement of the joystick and the resistance on the switches designed to incorporate many of the original key features that were so beloved by fans. The machine also features the authentic woodgrain outer shell finish, further enhancing the nostalgic experience.

The Atari 2600+ Video Game System package includes the Atari 2600+ console, the CX40+ Joystick Controller, the 10 Games in 1 Cartridge, an HDMI cable, and a USB power cable, allowing users to dive right into the classic Atari gaming experience.
