Shop Fightbox » genxgrownup.com/fightbox
When the Atari GameStation Go was first revealed, it looked like one of the most ambitious retro handhelds ever made. A trackball, a spinner, a numpad, & over 200 games. It promised to be the ultimate all-in-one Atari machine. But when it finally launched… things didn’t exactly go according to plan. Now, six months later—after multiple firmware updates and even a community overhaul, where does the Gamestation Go stand, and is this handheld worth owning half a year after its release?
