Is nobody going to talk about the fact that Atari re-entered the console market?

Well, that's interesting to say the least. Their line "objective is to create a new product that stays true to our heritage while appealing to both old and new fans of Atari." sounds weird. What are they gonna do, make it a 'Classic' type of box by holding a lot of old school atari games in it, while having new modern games as well? Does it mean the controller will be like a 2600 controller?

I know they want to have that old school feel, but did they really need to make it look like something from the 80s? This whole thing just seems kinda funny to me.

I actually like that old timey look to it but I didn't care for it's games or conrollers though back then. I don't want to relive any of that.

Yeah, I can see the look does have some charm, especially to people who played the 2600. I wasn't born around that time, so I don't really know gaming then was like. I got my start on the NES.
