Warlords was a damn good game. That one cart entertained me and my family for years back in the 1980's. What sucks is that it's hard to play it on a modern system because paddles don't exist anymore as a standard controller. Looking back, that was probably the very first game in which I spent over 100 hours playing. I didn't hit that many hours again till the Xbox 360.

One of the really cools things eventually coming to this is an program that will allow you to make your own 2600 style games for it and share them on the games store. That seems really cool to me.

This was cool. I had a 2600 and loved it. It'd be great to see an in-depth review.

It can be overclocked yes, but Atari doesn't want you too.

I need more of that Atari in my life. Would love to see what it can fully do.

I am just curious why are there no Atari Jaguar or Atari Lynx games being released on the newer Atari VCS? I find it a bit odd that Atari would not take advantage of the older games. Many people do not or have not ever tried/owned a Lynx or a Jag and would love to try out some of the older games. Personally I think Atari might want to take a page from Nintendo's playbook like Nintendo's eshop. I see no reason why the Atari VCS would not be able to handle the emulation. I understand that perhaps it could be a licensing issue if Atari no longer owns the rights to the games it created for those consoles but if not a license issue than it is a missed opportunity.

I would love a complete LTT video about this! Maybe exploring the upgradability and using it to emulate other consoles or something like that.

They're basically saying that most people will try to return a broken product to the store past the return period. Then when the store tells them tough luck, they don't go any further with get the problem resolved. A huge prob of people don't inquire about warranty through the company, and they just chalk it up as a liar, and then it hurts the brand. Almost ever person I know, when I ask about something and they say it's broken, they almost never take advantage of the 1+ year manufacturer warrant.

id like to see a review of this for sure, would love other companies to do something like this as well.

i'd say i can never get enough Anthony ... but you know what i really can't get enough of? all the love and support from the community for Anthony!

As a VCS developer, I wish decent-sized channels would do something like a "best games on VCS". I understand the focus on the hardware. But for someone considering the console, the decision to buy it is pretty questionable without knowing the games on it BESIDES the classic Atari games. The library is quite small, which is something that gets mentioned often when talking about game streaming services, but that sometimes gets ignored with the VCS. It's a fair criticism. But I'd like to think you could take a positive spin on it and try some of the obscure indie games that are on the system to get a better sense for what you can expect to show up on the VCS down the line. It's obviously indie-focused, so it's important to know if there are games worth playing on it! (Spoiler: I think there are if you look for them.) Granted, I think the market for it is probably more in line with a Raspberry Pi than a typical game console. It's going to appeal to tinkerers because of the PC mode. But that's been covered by other reviewers. The big gap in coverage is with the games available on the VCS shop. It might not be the primary thing to attract people to the VCS, but as an added bonus for people who are on the fence, it's worth mentioning. And it certainly gives a better sense of the console's performance capabilities than showing off retro Atari games!

Nice one Anthony!

Got mine as an early backer for just over £200. Well happy with it as a modding project, and already have the Alphacool PS3 waterblock on it with liquid metal. The only problem I've found with it so far is the restricted BIOS Power and DRAM settings. It'll only run JEDEC timings for the DDR4, and doesn't have hardware control for a standby/off through the installed "other OS". Makes installing windows a pain really. 😠 Should see the work the engineers put into the PCB too. Nice little Easter eggs all over it. 👍😎

Yes! More retro stuff please! Also more retro modding on LTT please!

I've seen other reviewers and they were just talking bad about it, and this is one of the few that liked it. Please go more into depth! The fact is that it's small, it might look good in an entertainment center, and people really underestimate what you can do with a CPU that doesn't have a lot of power. Even the weakest of today's dual-core CPUs can be used for some nice things.

GN review was quite positive, at least on the hardware level. It looks good, build quality isn't crappy, and the teardown showed good overall PCB and cooling design. What wasn't great was the intention of marketing this as an actual console, which it isn't. It's just a mini PC with an Atari shell for its retro games, and you can do that on any PC. You pay for the aesthetics and the convenience of it being already configured for you in a pleasing way, that's it.
