The Atari 7800+ is a no-frills glimpse into a forgotten gaming era
SMRTR summary
The Atari 7800+ is a modern remake of the classic 1980s console, offering HDMI output and backwards compatibility with Atari 2600 games. Priced at $130, it plays original 7800 cartridges and new homebrew titles. However, the device lacks modern emulation features like save states or graphical filters. The included controller has an awkward design that may frustrate players. While it provides nostalgia for Atari fans, there are more full-featured and affordable ways to play retro games today.
