The Atari 400 Mini is a fantastic tribute, with one major sticking point

With an eclectic mix of built-in games and support for more via USB, the joystick is the only thing that lets us down

The Atari 400 Mini is a fantastic tribute, with one major sticking point

The Atari 400 may not be one of the most popular systems in gaming history, but that's exactly why the 400 Mini is such a brilliant addition to the mini system collection. Its provided games brilliantly sum up what the computer was capable of, and the USB support makes thousands of extra games playable too. Just bear in mind that you might want to swap the joystick out for something more responsive: sometimes authenticity can be a downside.

  • A brilliantly curated selection of interesting games
  • USB ROM support is hugely welcome
  • Outer case is an excellent recreation of the original hardware
  • Supports a bunch of other USB controllers...
  • ...which is useful, because we really don't like the joystick
4 / 5
