Does this support sideloading? Actual cartridges? Is it 2600 games only?

From what I hear, there’s an online store, but the games are super cheap.

VanHalbgott OP ,

More than that, actually.

If I saw it for $200 I’d be tempted to pick one up but I feel the price point was too high.

Forgot this happened.

I looked into it, but never ended up getting one because I didn’t have $400 to gamble on a kickstarter

VanHalbgott OP ,

Oh, Atari is still manufacturing the VCS.

I managed to buy one on sale last year.

The games are cheap and play fine.

Older Atari systems would be good too.

IIRC, it was supposed to function as a standard computer too. How does it perform in that respect?

I know the specs probably aren’t amazing considering it’s been a few years but I’m still curious.

There are better and cheaper options this year so you didn’t miss anything. There’s the Atari Game Station Pro that emulates many old systems including Atari for $75 and the Atari 2600+ for $130 that directly replicates the 2600 but with HDMI.
