Now Playing: AN ICON RETURNS: The Atari 2600+
The system comes with 10 of Atari's most famous games loaded onto one cartridge, including Adventure and Missile Command. It also supports any Atari 2600 or 7800 game cartridges that you might already own. It was designed using "modern technology" and includes the system's iconic CX40 joystick built with the same size and layout.
The Atari 2600+ runs on USB power and connects to your screen via HDMI, with support for multiple resolutions. It is 20% smaller than the original Atari 2600. The full list of games can be seen below.
Additionally, Plaion and Atari are launching a bundle that comes with the CX-30 paddle controller and a four-game bundle for $40. The games included in this bundle include Breakout, Canyon Bomber, Night Driver, and Video Olympics. What's more, Atari will sell a CX-40 standalone joystick for $35. Finally, Atari will offer Berzerk- Enhanced Edition and Mr. Run and Jump 2600 for $30 each.
