At the beginning of the year the device was shown at CES and then kept under wraps again, but now it’s suddenly going pretty fast: My Arcade has it Atari Gamestation Pro officially announced and it is scheduled to appear on October 31st.
For $99.99 you get the modern retro-look console with two wireless controllers that also have integrated paddle functions. The device will contain 200 games from – and this is new – not only the Atari 2600, but also Atari 7800, Arcade and, for the first time, Atari 5200 as well as “bonus titles”. However, there is no exact list to be found anywhere and the sparsely texted product page doesn’t provide much information either.
As of today, pre-orders should be possible “at selected retailers” and it appears that sales are only officially planned in the USA for the time being – if that changes, we would of course want to take a closer look at the device.
