![]() Atari has just announced the Atari 7800+ console, a brand new way to enjoy Atari 2600 and 7800 games on a modern television. The 7800+ share's the same, sleek design as the original 7800, featuring the European version of the silver stripe on the front of the console. It features an HDMI port on the back, a USB-C connector for power, and two standard DB9 controller ports on the front. Included is the new CX-78+ Wireless Controller, as well as a copy of Bentley Bear's Crystal Quest, the original sequel to Crystal Castles, developed by AtariAge member Robert DeCrescenzo (PacManPlus). 7800+ Features:
In addition to the 7800+ and CX-78+ Wireless Controller, Atari has also announced a CX-40+ Wireless Joystick. Both wireless controllers will work on classic consoles and computers that support standard Atari DB9 joystick controllers, as well as with modern computers using the included USB-A wireless dongle. And, finally, Atari has also announced several new 2600 and 7800 titles to accompany the release of the 7800+: New 2600 Titles:
New 7800 Titles:
And, one thing that greatly excites us, is that Bounty Bob Strikes Back is making its appearance on the 7800 for the first time, faithfully ported to the Atari 7800 by Robert DeCrescenzo! This classic platform game, the sequel to the wildly popular Miner 2049er, was originally released for the Atari 5200 and Atari 8-bit computers, and now you can enjoy it on the 7800!
