Update: The full review is now posted!
The AtGames Atari Flashback Portable, which is just now starting to hit major retailers everywhere and should have full availability by the end of the month (November 2016), features 60 built-in games, including legends like Frogger, as well as all-time Atari 2600 classics like Adventure, Centipede™, Pong, Missile Command®, and Yars’ Revenge®. The fun never has to end with a built-in rechargeable battery and an SD card slot for adding even more games. Games can be played on the portable’s built-in high resolution 3.2” display or on a TV via optional cable. I’ll have a full review right here on Armchair Arcade soon.

The Atari Flashback Portable carries a SRP of $59.99 USD. Note that game compatibility through the SD card is limited, as are the types of SD cards the portable supports. It supports SD cards up to 8GB in size, like this one, and the folder where you store the .bin files must be named Game. If you find that your .bin files aren’t appearing, change the case of the file name to first letter capital, second letter lowercase, e.g., change SPCINVAD.BIN to Spcinvad.BIN.
