Atari 2600+

[5] A few cartridges do not function because the system uses software-based emulation[6] instead of a binary compatible system-on-chip hardware.

[10] The console was released in November 2023 in North America, European territories, Australia and New Zealand.

[11] Seth Macy of IGN reviewed the system and gave a score of 7 out of 10, concluding: "An attractive, emulator-based solution to reliving the 1980s in the modern era, with a dedication to recreating the original experience that's both a blessing and a curse.

"[6] PC World's Ida Blix, with a score of 4 out of 5, praised the design and cartridge backwards compatibility, but was critical of the price and that it only comes with one controller.

"[13] The Guardian's Keith Stuart, however, commented that "as with many pop cultural relics from the 1970s, the charm and novelty may wear off too soon, the weirdness and limitations all too obvious".
