If you're looking for the perfect Retro Gaming Christmas present that comes with a healthy dose of nostalgia and the essence of the Golden Age of Gaming, then the Atari 2600+ needs to be on the top of your list.

As someone who lives and breathes Retro Gaming, I love having a modern version of the classic 2600 console on my desk to play classic Atari cartridges, and now the Atari 2600+ has dropped to £78.51 for shoppers on Amazon UK.

The Atari 2600+ is a perfect replica of the original console, right down to the 4 switches on the top and the iconic veneer wood pannelling on the front. The main difference is that it's powered by USB-C and has an HDMI port to hook up to your TV or Monitor. You don't need a CRT to enjoy classic Atari games anymore, and the best thing is that this console comes with 10 games to play straight out of the box.

The Atari 2600+ comes with the CX40+ Joystick and a 10-in-1 game cartridge. The cart itself has four switches on the back of it that you'll move into different positions depending on what game you want to play - you can't get more retro than that! Play the iconic Missile Command as well as Combat, Dodge 'Em, Haunted House, Maze Craze, Realsports Volleyball, Video Pinball, Surround, and the epic Yars' Revenge!

Our review of the 2600+ when it first released!

If you're into your retro Atari titles or know someone who wants to experience the classic world of Retro Gaming for the first time, then this is a perfect present at a great price on Amazon UK. It works with other Atari cartridges for both the 2600 and the 7800 too, so you can expand your collection to your heart's content!

Don't forget to check out my review of the Atari 2600+ PAC-MAN Edition while you're here too!
