Atari announces the 7800 Plus console coming this winter
Atari has just announced a renewed version of its 7800 home console from 1986. Dubbed the 7800 Plus, the new console will launch later this winter but is already available to pre-order from Atari for $129.99. The 7800 Plus is a scaled-down version of the original hardware equipped with an HDMI connection and has the ability to play first and third-party cartridges for the Atari 2600 and 7800. Additionally, you’ll have the option to play your games in their original 4:3 aspect ration, or upscale them to widescreen format.
Atari is also producing a bunch of new game cartridges to use with your new consoles. The new games will be available for $29.99 each, and will launch alongside the 7800 Plus later this year. Each cartridge provides an original take on a classic title for Atari consoles and comes packaged with printed manual.
