For those that have never heard of the handheld it’s basically the world’s smallest clamshell handheld, designed by a small team of passionate handheld fans. A surprising number of the 64 included games are still a huge amount of fun to play, especially if you're looking to jump around in a frenetic platformer, or immerse yourself in the deadly, futuristic racing league of Alleykat. While there are a lot of games that fall into similar niches (platformers and scrolling shooters are available in abundance), there are enough distinctive standouts to remind you why the original C64 was the best selling home computer of all time. In 1972, a new hire at Atari named Allan Alcorn was assigned a project as a test. Alcorn was unfamiliar with video games until Bushnell introduced him to Computer Space. This made the result of his performance test even more impressive. After months of work refining his first project, Alcorn presented Atari with Pong. The game was not intended to have been made for commercial release, but the company enjoyed Pong so much that it became their flagship title.

The Atari Lynx began sales in 1989 and would stay in the market until 1995 when Atari left console gaming completely. By not producing and continuing the advancement of their technology, they lost the money to continue operating. This is most notable by Warner’s decision not to release the handheld console, The Cosmos. The Cosmos was a handheld console that used holography to create 3D-styled images. It was what may be considered the earliest model of a Nintendo 3DS. The RG351V has a 3.5″ display that fits most retro games in its native resolution as it has a crisp, detailed 4:3 ratio display which is why many retro gamers absolutely love this device, even if it does look a little plain.

It’s an Android based handheld with a Snapdragon SD845 processor, with a Ardeno 630 GPU and 7GB’s or RAM, so on paper, it’s a very powerful handheld, and due to the incredible specs it can emulate Gamecube, PSP, Dreamcast and even Playstation 2 games very well. The only downside? The sheer volume of choice. That's where we come in. To help point you in the right direction, our team has put together a list of the best retro game consoles that every fan needs in their collection.It can also emulate Gameboy Advance, N64, PS1, and most PSP games. The limit here is high-end, large PSP games, that’s when it starts to struggle. And that’s where the magic lies. It’s an all round flawless gaming machine. It can play the latest AAA games and your harder to emulate retro consoles from the past in a semi-portable form factor. Even though Retro-Bit stumbled with 2016's Generations (a deservedly maligned attempt to create a foothold in the retro emulation market), this follow-up seems to take that criticism on board.

Centipede plays just fine, as does the excellent Food Fight. But not Asteroids. Gnnnnnnnnn. Dabney had invented an early technology for movement on a screen called Spot Motion Circuit. With his addition, a dot could move up, down, left, and right on the screen without the addition of an expensive computing unit. This was game-changing technology that allowed for the creation of the video game arcade cabinets. The first game ever commercially sold was Computer Space, but it was Atari’s first that gained immense traction.
