Atari 7800+ Is Only $60 For Prime Day, Includes New Cartridge Game

Retro gaming enthusiasts can save over 50% on the Atari 7800+ console during Prime Day. Released last November for $130, the cartridge-based console is discounted to just $60 at Amazon. This is an incredible deal, as the console comes with a wireless gamepad that's sold separately for $35 and a new Atari game that goes for $30 on its own. You could use some of the money you're saving toward the CX40+ Wireless Joystick, which is discounted to $28 and can be synced to your PC, too.

Amazon also has a deal on the Atari 2600+ that drops the price to $90 (was $130). Both of these modern recreations of classic hardware play Atari 2600 and 7800 cartridges, so if you don't have a preference on the look of the console, the 7800+ is clearly the better option at the moment.

Retro gamers should also check out Amazon's deals on the mClassic Graphics Upscalers, which improve picture resolution and clarity when using older gaming hardware on modern TVs. The mClassic can also make a noticeable difference with the Nintendo Switch (not the Switch 2).
