This Summer, the company Atari, a veteran of the gaming industry, new game console Ataribox and told some of the details concerning their development. At that time it was very small, so we all have a lot more questions than answers. Today the company sent out a new press release in which it announced some details and showed more photos with the device.
According to the developers, in Ataribox will use the modified AMD processor and Radeon GPUs. What — is not specified. But it became known that the software console — an adapted Linux distribution. The console can stream video, run applications, play movies and music, will allow you to surf the Internet and chat on social networks. About the support of mouse and keyboard yet nothing is said, but I think closer to release it just to add.
Recall that the console will have four USB ports, which probably will be used to transfer saved games and charge controllers. On the housing is a connector for cards of the format SD and HDMI for connection to TV. At Atari say that the console will play like a good old game from old console company, and brand new video games, which the developers promise to tell later.
Soon the company plans to begin fundraising for production of the game console using the Indiegogo platform — this is also promised to inform separately. If all goes well, the console will start selling in the spring of 2018. It is expected that the price of the console will vary from 249 to 299 dollars. The difference is due to the equipment. Most likely, the more expensive bundle will be sold with two controllers and different memory.
