"Berzerk" sold me. Very, very difficult game to get hold of. To get an updated 2600, and purchase 'Berzerk' arcade perfect? At the same time? Take my money! Imagine the same done with Solaris, Radar Lock, Mr Do, Battlezone, Robot Tank, Starship, Star Raiders, Asteroids, Tempest, Lunar Lander..To name a few..Original and enhanced, all on one cart, packaged like the originals in the 70s and 80s.. It'll sell alright! Can't wait to get hold of my Atari+ and games 😉😁
The size of that box is ridiculous, but beautiful. I got me a couple of gamestation pros from Atari. The company really knows how to make a come back into the home console market
I wish more companies would do this. I think Nintendo, sega and Sony should start taking notes. If Nintendo and Sony did this. With n64, GameCube, ps1 and ps2. There would be so many people that would buy that sh*t in a second
Technically Atari liked the Indie so much and did a deal to Legitimize it, and put it in their new cartridge program (apparently they've been slowly building the program to sell cartridges again)
Dang, can't wait to see more games, there is one game that I really hope gets a return, the Texas chainsaw massacre, even though the game wasn't your product I really hope I get my hands on one for a fair price
As an ordinary person, one will definitely not receive this for the $129.99 that Atari is charging (Atari lists exactly what you will get in the package on their Website, that being the unit, one joystick, 10-in-1 cartridge, and cables). Mr. R.Dodo really should have mentioned this more clearly in the video because the "very premium" packaging he keeps gushing about is relevant for RUclips reviewers only.
I actually love this idea of remastering old hardware. I'd love to see a nintendo take on this with something like the n64 or gamecube. Retro collecting market is gonna crash and burn though...
On amazon it looks like those extra games are sold separately from the console for $50 canadian each, $60 for the 4 in one game. Heck of a display box though. Wish they made more of those multigame packs. Edit: Also just noticed I dont think the console comes with the dial controllers, just the joystick.
Hah! Funny thing is... I had my OG Atari 2600 (modded with composite video out) connected to my 4k TV (via a Retroscaler) last Saturday, to play some games with my teenage kids. Missile Command, Space Invaders and Joust were our favorites. I then found out this remastered version came out. Awesome thing is, the new games cartridges also work on the old hardware. Nice unboxing, can't wait for the review. Thanks!
They're legit. Mr. Run And Jump I believe was a recent Indie, that Atari did a deal, legitimized, and is part of their cartridge program. It's a small step but Atari is still the damn 🪳 that won't die
I'd like to see other companies like Sega and Nintendo do this. The mini 'consoles' from them, in my opinion, seemed liked a curiosity/intrigue item more than anything. I'd 100% have bought one though if it played back my OG carts.
So those "repro" cartridges, are legit. Atari is actually producing cartridges, mainly the 10 games and 4 games, but Berserk is at the least all new runs, and Mr. Run And Jump is an Indie Atari has actually went ahead and done a deal for and it's legit. Imagine uf other companies did similar, miniaturized the old systems, put them in HDMI and resell them, possibly legitimize quality indie games at the same time. Now collectors will be mixed of course, angry that it'll bomb the community, but happy for HDMI + possible QOL improvements. Imagine a legit Genesis with full compatibility (games, 32x, cd, fm sound) and HDMI for $100
Spinner controllers? Like who did they pick to review this like a Kardashian? A Mr Run and Jump repro already? That was fast. They should have sent these to legit Atari fans..or maybe a gamer.
I agree with the other comments that this is a somewhat niche item. If you don't have nostalgia for the 2600, you probably won't have any interest in this. I don't personally have any nostalgia for the 2600 because I wasn't born yet, but I really like and enjoy the console and its games. I want to get one of these, but I'm going to wait until it's 100% compatible with every game in the 2600 library.
I had an original one many years ago and my favourite games were Yars Revenge, Midnight magic, Stargate and the best one which I did eventually clock was H.E.R.O. The spinners are called Paddles, I like what Atari have done here! But I've been ruined by the PS4 the Atari graphics are too old and basic for me now! They were great back in the day though 👍🇬🇧
One controller people. One controller. The fake Atari 2023 apparently forgot that when the real Atari released the VCS it came with 2 controllers so you could play Combat. Apart from that, this is a massive racket. You can get all the games for free on any Mac or PC. Hope it bombs to hell.
Bloody Brilliant video mate. Yeah I think the box it came in is just for show. Would be great if they came out like that, the box really does look great
Mr run and jump is a new game from atari, but does somebody know how many W and Volts the atari usb c port need to work ? because there is no power adapter in the box
@@linksavetheday okay well does at least most of the good ones and the Nintendo license ones work on it the official Nintendo ports from back then all work?
Was a huge Atari fan growing up but have to be honest, games are not appealing to anyone except those interested for nostalgic reasons only. Ultimately, lipstick on pig.

We promise the retail packaging isn't that big. 😀 This is just a special preview package.
do the paddles and controller work with pc? would love a paddle for my atari collection on steam
@@ojmachine9545doubtful
Lol thank goodness.
@atari this is awesome. Can you make an Atari Lynx+?
"Berzerk" sold me. Very, very difficult game to get hold of.

I hope they recharge all the atari games
Boooo ! This video is misleading . Sadly this package is not available to the public!
🕹🕹📺🔌

Agreed.
@@RetroDodo now I love the nes and snes mini but there’s a part of me that wishes Nintendo did this with the nes and snes classic.
100000% agree. A new NES, would be incredible. Literal money printing machine.
China got you covered with the bad aspect ratio, bad sound quality, and bad frame rate 😅
Mr Run and Jump is a brand new game. The first official 2600 cartridge release since Fatal Run in 1991.
Technically Atari liked the Indie so much and did a deal to Legitimize it, and put it in their new cartridge program (apparently they've been slowly building the program to sell cartridges again)
Yeah this was just another homebrew game on Atariage that now is official.
@@DannyP-dm1pw But it's still cool that Atari is legitimizing and releasing them.
@@Jmeon4eva Yeah , I didn't say it wasn't. Was just saying
Dang, can't wait to see more games, there is one game that I really hope gets a return, the Texas chainsaw massacre, even though the game wasn't your product I really hope I get my hands on one for a fair price
Say what you want about Atari, just know I have a lot more respect for Atari doing this.
The 2600+ is 80% of the size of the original console (the original was huge).
The original is about the same size as a PS5, so I wouldn't describe it as huge.
I would. The ps5 is huge.
No one, bitd, considered the 2600 huge. It seemed, just right.
Atari 5200 is way bigger than those.
As an ordinary person, one will definitely not receive this for the $129.99 that Atari is charging (Atari lists exactly what you will get in the package on their Website, that being the unit, one joystick, 10-in-1 cartridge, and cables). Mr. R.Dodo really should have mentioned this more clearly in the video because the "very premium" packaging he keeps gushing about is relevant for RUclips reviewers only.
Thank you for that catch. I defiinitely agree. As I hope others note this as well.
I actually love this idea of remastering old hardware. I'd love to see a nintendo take on this with something like the n64 or gamecube. Retro collecting market is gonna crash and burn though...
So much the better if the retro market burns
Mr Run n Jump is an original brand new release, as is Berzerk kinda
Atari is still kicking Intellivision's ass.
On amazon it looks like those extra games are sold separately
from the console for $50 canadian each, $60 for the 4 in one game. Heck of a display box though. Wish they made more of those multigame packs.
Edit: Also just noticed I dont think the console comes with the dial controllers, just the joystick.
The 4 in 1 will come with the paddles. Doesn't make sense to have those games and no paddles.

I'd like one, I didn't know they were even out yet.
Atari does what Nintendon't!
I'd like to see other companies like Sega and Nintendo do this. The mini 'consoles' from them, in my opinion, seemed liked a curiosity/intrigue item more than anything. I'd 100% have bought one though if it played back my OG carts.
The cool thing about this system is how it can play 7800 games. I just hope they come out with a better/newer controller for 7800 games
So those "repro" cartridges, are legit. Atari is actually producing cartridges, mainly the 10 games and 4 games, but Berserk is at the least all new runs, and Mr. Run And Jump is an Indie Atari has actually went ahead and done a deal for and it's legit.

When you do the full on review, check and see if Sega Genesis/MegaDrive controllers work with the Atari 2600+
Sure.
Spinner controllers? Like who did they pick to review this like a Kardashian?
A Mr Run and Jump repro already?
That was fast.
They should have sent these to legit Atari fans..or maybe a gamer.
Thanx, Baldie, good one. However, not enough cat footage, I'm afraid, such a gorgeous feline u gots there and it barely makes an appearance!
@atari are you gonna provide updates to improve game emulation? Ex. Donkey Kong 7800 has an annoying audio issue when Mario picks up a hammer.
The original joysticks back in the day would break on the inside if you were a little rough. So, go easy playing a game.
why is yours so much nicer than mine?
ordered this and only got one controller. Really annoying because now they are sold out and i cant get them.
What a beauty 😏
Never heard paddle controllers called spinners .. lol
Does the USB C work as a screen connection too?
How can we buy this delux set
The Gamestation Pro is better imo.
Atari will sell dozens of these!
this was a great video friend…. i’ve basically got everything in that box pre ordered…. would of been nice to see some gameplay though …..
Gameplay and full review is coming on Wednesday
@@RetroDodo awesome dude

I want to get one of these, but I'm going to wait until it's 100% compatible with every game in the 2600 library.
Good luck, like with the NES some games need a CRT, and a curved CRT at that not a flat CRT.
I had an original one many years ago and my favourite games were Yars Revenge, Midnight magic, Stargate and the best one which I did eventually clock was H.E.R.O.
The spinners are called Paddles, I like what Atari have done here! But I've been ruined by the PS4 the Atari graphics are too old and basic for me now! They were great back in the day though 👍🇬🇧

You can get all the games for free on any Mac or PC.
Hope it bombs to hell.
Original joystick was stiff. I used to have a callus on the webbing between my thumb and forfinger from yar's revenge and Adventure...lol
The one thing I want to know is do the paddle controllers work with the Retron 77?
Bloody Brilliant video mate. Yeah I think the box it came in is just for show. Would be great if they came out like that, the box really does look great
Mr run and jump is a new game from atari, but does somebody know how many W and Volts the atari usb c port need to work ? because there is no power adapter in the box
VERY nice, informative and entertaining unboxing. Very good work! Thank you! 👍👍😃
Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you.
Esta version para buscarla en Amazon en España... sabéis???
Its cool that the Eu can finaly buy atari xp games an a console
Do Genesis/Mega Drive controllers still work with this like they did with the original 2600?
😳 I am going to try this and I will respond with the answer ! :)
How you get this already
How many watt power adapter does it require? How many watts for the charging brick for the power source
Paddle. Paddle. PADDLE!
Can you play original atari 2600 cartridges on it from the past?
Yeah, that's the entire point of the console, but it's running on emulation so a few games don't work on it
@@linksavetheday okay well does at least most of the good ones and the Nintendo license ones work on it the official Nintendo ports from back then all work?
yeah most of what you would want plays, including the nintendo stuff@@retroguy2525
Hell you can even use mega drive controllers with Atari 2600s cause they have the same connector
Hopefully this means they are shipping out soon.
First
Very cool unboxing!
Thank you 🤗
Love the unboxing!
Thank you!!
But what the fuck is it? Is it emulation?
Not including power adapters is sin.
It doesn't matter if it's emulation or not ...😂
I pre ordered mine and can hardly wait to get it I wish this system played 5200 and Jaguar games as well
Maybe they'll do a 5200 or Jaguar model if things go well enough.
I'm interested in this, had one as a kid and this model looks good, I'll wait for your review.
Hit that bell icon, we'll have it live on Wednesday!
Nice unboxing vid! Thankyou
Thanks for watching!
This is so cool
Really hoping Atari can do this with the Jaguar next. The prices of that console are astronomical. 😅
Can confirm, Atari joysticks really are 100% super stiff.
A little bit pointless if this is not the actual packaging?
Was a huge Atari fan growing up but have to be honest, games are not appealing to anyone except those interested for nostalgic reasons only. Ultimately, lipstick on pig.
To each his own. Lots of these games are a lot of fun, even with nostalgia glasses.
DOA
