Fans wanting to scratch their retro gaming itch could also look at alternatives.
Recently Atari revealed their new Ataribox, another retro console with a current twist that looks set to perfectly channel the feeling of the original Atari 2600.
At E3 this year Atari began teasing a “brand new Atari product.” and aired a 20-second trailer which hinted at an Atari reboot.
The released teaser hinted at a throwback to the original Atari 2600, showing a machine with the classic wooden shell.
Yesterday, fans were given their first look at the new console, along with a generous amount of new details.
Atari fans received a pleasant surprise yesterday morning when they received an email from Atari that revealed their intentions with the new console, it read: “our objective is to create something new, that stays true to our heritage while appealing to both old and new fans of Atari.” The new
This new 'Ataribox' features a sleek look, with sharp lines, a raised back, and a front panel that can either be glass or wood and allows for indicator lights to glow through the faceplate.
Atari also revealed that the console includes SD card support, a HDMI port, and four USB ports on the back.
Introducing Atari's LATEST product Play Video For now, fans of the retro console haven't been given any details about the Ataribox's price, release dates or games that could be included.
Atari explained that they've opted to not disclose this information yet because they want to do things "step by step”, telling fans:
“We know you are hungry for more details; on specs, games, pricing, timing,” reads an Atari statement. “We’re not teasing you intentionally; we want to get this right, so we’ve opted to share things step by step as we bring this to life, and to listen closely to the Atari community feedback as we do so.”
That said, it does appear as though the console will play more than just games from Atari’s own extensive library of classic games.
It's said that the Ataribox will also be capable of playing “current gaming content” according to the company.
Writers for gadgets.ndtv.com have suggested - though cannot say for sure - that the machine could release with software similar to Android boxes like the Ouya or Nvidia Shield TV.
"Could this result in a console similar to the myriad of Android boxes such as the Ouya and the Nvidia Shield TV or akin to Nintendo’s retro efforts like the SNES or NES Classic? Only time will tell."
Add that to RECORD Switch sales, mobile developments, licensing expectations, movie, theme parks, & MORE!! for this 100+ year old company with HUGE Multi-BILLION DOLLAR CASH RESERVES & we're moving into a NEW ERA @ NTDOY....
