Hey readers, do you remember that announcement made by Atari of the console way back in 2017. Yes, so now that 4-year-long wait for retro-style gaming console Atari VCS will soon be over as Atari claims to launch it on June 15, and this time for sure.

Why was the Launch of Atari VCS Delayed?

The announcement was made in June 2017, the project was named Ataribox and billed as ‘years in making’ and ‘coming soon’. But in 2017 when the crowdfunding Indiegogo campaign was about to start it got delayed to 2018 summers and further got pushed to 2019.

In 2019 just before the launch, the chief architect resigned, putting allegations that he was paid his salary for a long time. After getting over this when finally everything was set in 2020, the pandemic again led to the delay, and hence now comes the time when it will really launch on June 15.
