The game library itself is extensive, with a wide range of classic games as well as modern titles, providing something for gamers of all ages and preferences. The controllers are comfortable to hold and use, with responsive buttons and analog sticks that provide excellent control and precision during gameplay.
Another aspect of the Atari VCS that I appreciated was the ability to customize and personalize the console to my liking, with various skins and accessories available to suit my preferences. The console also comes with 4 USB ports, allowing me to easily connect additional peripherals such as keyboards, mice, and gamepads.
Overall, the Atari VCS provides a perfect blend of retro and modern gaming, making it an ideal choice for anyone looking to experience classic Atari games while still enjoying modern features and capabilities. I highly recommend this console to any retro gaming enthusiast or anyone looking for a unique and engaging gaming experience.
The system arrived, and didn't work. It kept hanging while trying to update upon initial startup. It took over a month for me to get an updated Debian image just for this to run. Yeah. I spent almost $300 on a system that arrived *broken*... for a month.
Oh, right. It runs on Debian. A simple Linux kernel. No FPGA here. El cheapo.
The power button is in the back of the console.. That's the only way to turn on the machine. We are in a world where all other consoles can be turned on by the controller. Not here. It's not a "retro" feature. It's just cheap.
And then the fan kicks in. The small, tiny, horribly loud fan. It's ridiculous.
The games? Oh, right. You wanna play any Activision games like Pitfall!? Nope. Not available. Only Atari published games. I repeat. No Activision games.
This thing is a waste. I'm sorry I spent so much money on it.
Please, do not purchase this.

Yes it, it can and does run Windows 11, and steam inside it running in big picture mode works fine - AFTER you have worked out how to put the modern controller into PC mode. You don’t install windows on the internal emmc or the internal M2 slot ssd if fitted. You install it onto an external USB device like an SSD using rufus, the windows iso and making it a windows to go image. It just works and boots from the usb device any time its installed.
Plenty of older controller friendly games work great in this manner. You wont be playing latest and greatest AAA titles on this limited hardware but runs plenty of things just fine on my older 1080P tv.
The atari side of things, games are limited in number, a few are interesting, definitely needs more games.
Know what you are getting into, this is for those that like to tinker and don’t expect your hand to be held every step of the way.
