Atari has released its Gamestation Go portable console for retro gaming

Atari has announced the Gamestation Go portable console, developed in conjunction with MyArcade Retro and designed to run classic retro games.

The device resembles a Steam Deck and is equipped with an HDMI port, a headphone jack, a charging port and two USB Type-C. The body has a D-Pad, X, Y, A, B buttons, as well as side triggers R1, R2, L1 and L2. The console features a digital block on the right side, the purpose of which is still unknown, and two analog sticks.

The official presentation of the Atari Gamestation Go will take place at the CES 2025 exhibition in Las Vegas from January 7 to 10.

Atari was a household name in the console world in the late 70s and early 80s. The balance of power in this market is completely different now, but the other day, the company’s CEO, Fred Chesnais, announced that Atari will return with a new console of its own production.

There are almost no details, except that the new Atari console is based on PC architecture. Last week, Atari released a teaser, from which we can draw the disappointing conclusion that the new console, like the legendary Atari 2600, will have wood (or wood-like) inserts.
