Over the last few years, retro video games have been all the rage and Atari certainly leaned into the ongoing demand with the release last year of the Atari 2600+ to the market. It seems that while video games and video game consoles get more high-tech and more expensive, theres definitely a demand for simpler times and simpler games. At least games that are simpler looking, even if they might be quite difficult to master.
