And now it's time for Leo's Turn The Table Turkey!

Atari Arcade Games come back yet again!

If you played video games in the 1970s and 80s, you’re familiar with the name Atari. They had some of the most popular video games of the day, including Pac Man! They never vanished completely, coming back from time to time with a new product. They’re back again with the Atari Arcade-Duo Controller for iPad. I saw this device at a trade show and the company offered me to send me one. Not having an iPad, I had the unit sent to Leo and he picked it for this week’s TTTT. Leo showed us how easy it is to plug your iPad into the Atari Controller to create your own mini-arcade. It’s still easy to find most of the successful Atari games in various apps from free to 99 cents per game to $9.99 for the entire collection. Once you download some Atari games, you can play them directly on your iPad. Now, you don’t need this device to play, but Leo showed us how the Atari Arcade-Duo Controller for iPad makes it a lot more fun. It includes all the main buttons, laid out the way they were on controllers from the 80s and 70s. This is not the first device to bring classic games back to life. Think Geek has the iCade which makes your iPad looks even more like an old fashioned arcade game, but the Atari Arcade-Duo takes up a lot less space and costs $60 vs. $100 for the iCade. Leo said $60 might be a tad on the high side and it wouldn’t appeal to kids as much as it will appeal to those old enough to have played all those 8-bit Atari arcade games. So for nostalgia buffs, it will most likely be worth the money.
