After launching a cool Asteroids-inspired wristwatch earlier this year, Atari is back with another fascinating watch for retro gaming enthusiasts. The new Atari 2600 My Play Watch is pretty barebones in terms of health and fitness tracking features. However, what sets it apart from other smartwatches on the market is its ability to play classic Atari games.
You can enjoy 4 games on its 2.02-inch TFT touchscreen display, including Centipede, Missle Command, Pong, and Super Breakout, and customize it with retro Atari 2600 graphics and sound effects. The watch features a custom crown and a side mounted button that mimic the buttons from old school Atari controllers and they can even be used to play the built-in games if you’re not fond of the touchscreen.
