You can buy an official Atari console again, if you've lost all self-respect - PC Gamer

The Atari VCS actually exists, but remains wildly overpriced for what it is.

Following years of delays, the new Atari VCS system has officially launched.

While Atari boasts that the VCS is "a modern console / PC hybrid" machine, the reality is that the Ryzen R1606G processor this is based on is, by today's standards, old and graphically weak—especially at this price.

Should you have the kind of retro nostalgia that the Atari VCS is trying to play off, because I do get a slight nerd lust from looking at the gorgeous walnut version, you'd be better off building a tiny retro PC: buy a Raspberry Pi and pick up an imitation VCS case on Etsy.

I mean, here's an Engadget article from 2012 explaining how to get Atari 2600 games running on the original Raspberry Pi.

Atari, or the company it once was at least, will always hold a hallowed place in gaming history: and the original VCS will always be the first console that really broke into the mass market.

This new Atari VCS, sadly, is unlikely to add much of value to such a legacy.
