GamesVillage

This is the legendary Atari 2600, there is nothing else to add!

He has no flaws, but if one must be pointed out... the packaging includes too few games!

7.5

ActuGaming

A very faithful reproduction of the Atari 2600 in every detail.
Two display modes (16:9 and 4:3)
Compatible with the majority of vintage cartridges.
Also with vintage controllers.

A high cost if one wants to fully enjoy it (additional games and controllers)
Not easy if you are left-handed.

GameSoul

Quality packaging
The console is aesthetically and constructively superb.
It supports original games from the Atari 2600 as well as those from the Atari 7800.

Console sold with one controller.
The selection of games offered is not particularly convincing.
A certain introduction to the different games would have been appreciated.

Multiplayer.it

The naked and raw console
He imitates the original quite well.
Compatible with most original software.

We could have opened up the system more to include the community.
Few games included, some requiring additional fees to be used.
Paradoxically, this is not the best way to fully experience the Atari 2600.
