NEWS – My first gaming console was the Atari 2600. It was actually the Sears Tele-Games Video Arcade, a rebranded but officially licensed version of the Atari 2600. My dad worked part-time at Sears, so he got a discount. I loved spending hours playing games like Pong and Breakout. I would go to sleep with the animations still playing in my mind. Those were good times!
Now we can relive those days right from our wrists! The Atari 2600 My Play Watch takes the black and red with wood style of the original console, with four of the most popular games built right into the watch: Centipede, Missile Command, Pong, and Super Breakout. But it’s not just a tiny game console on your wrist. It also has modern smartwatch features like a step tracker and heart rate monitor. Guess what it doesn’t need? Bluetooth, WiFi, or apps. Yay!
The Atari 2600 My Play Watch comes with a free limited-edition band with gaming graphics on both sides. It is currently available for pre-order at $79, and shipping will start in July, so you don’t have to wait too long to show off your retro style. You can head over to Atari.com to place your order.
