For video-gaming enthusiasts who don't wish to shell out hundreds of dollars for the latest console, there may be an alternative in the form of an upcoming $20 device for playing classic Atari 2600 games. The "Atari 10-in-1 TV Games" device is a basic joypad with 10 built-in 8-bit Atari games and a standard ATV output cable allowing it to connect to any standard television. The device will join a similar product, launched last year, that plays Activision games.

The device includes classics such as Centipede, Asteroids, Missile Command, Battlezone, Adventure, Combat and four others, according to Jakks Pacific, which is making the device under licence from Infogrames Interactive, owner of the Atari intellectual property. It will retail under the brand of Jakks' Toymax International subsidiary. --Matthew Broersma, ZDNet UK
