If old-school Atari games like Pac-Man, Centipede, and Asteroids unlock a deep childhood nostalgia for you, check out the My Arcade Atari Gamestation Go. This handheld gaming device is packed with 200 games and is currently on Woot for an all-time low price of $129.99 (originally $179.99).
CNET praised the devices “crazy array of controller options,” though it cautioned that some games you might remember fondly have actually aged quite poorly.
While there aren’t detachable controllers, the 7-inch screen is bigger than the original Nintendo Switch, and it has the classic D-pad and shoulder buttons as well as a rotating dial, a physical number pad, and a trackball wheel. It comes with a sturdy kickstand, an HDMI port, three USB-C ports, a headphone jack, and a micro-SD slot for side-loading games. Although you can update the system via built-in wifi, you can’t buy or download additional titles on an app store, limiting you to the pre-loaded games.
What do you think so far?
While nostalgia is the main draw of this rechargeable console, keep in mind that performance and pacing might feel different if you’re used to modern games on contemporary consoles, reminding us that not all early games have aged well. That said, there are still a ton of options to choose from that will likely include your favorites, making the My Arcade Atari Gamestation Go worth it for classic gaming enthusiasts, especially at $50 off.
