The Atari VCS is on the way, and they’re shooting to transform the TV-centric home entertainment experience, with their ever-expanding library of games. This will include classics, and remastered favorites, streaming media and so much more. With that, the Atari VCS has entered pre-production, and the first wave of units are scheduled to ship to Indiegogo backers in December. They released a project update on Medium that went into greater detail on the project proper. If you’d like greater details on the technology and visuals that are going into this powerful console, you can do it in the link above.
The Atari VCS lineup of systems, bundles, and peripherals are available for preorder at GameStop.com, Walmart.com, and AtariVCS.com, for shipments starting in March 2020. Pricing starts at $249.99 USD for the Atari VCS 400 (4GB) Onyx Base model and goes up to $389.99 for one of three Atari VCS 800 (8GB) “All-In” system bundles that include the Atari VCS Classic Joystick (available separately for $49.99) and Atari VCS Modern Controller ($59.99), which were created in partnership with PowerA. Atari will announce international presale dates soon.
