  • Memory required: 600KB
  • The games are also available for Palm and N-Gage devices.
Pros:
  • Excellent emulation of the original games;
  • These old games are still fun!
Cons:
  • With the SD-card version, you must have the SD card to play the game; you cannot copy it into main memory;
  • The sound is awful, although I understand why;
  • The D-Pad and small screen make playing the games more difficult than the originals.
Summary:
Are you old enough to remember the Golden Age of videogames? I mean the first Golden Age; before Sega, before Nintendo, and way before Sony or Microsoft. I mean the Age of Atari. If you remember the simple game play, lousy graphics and sound, but having a great time playing those old games, then MDM has something for you!

MDM's Atari Retro contains seven original Atari videogames that you can play on your Pocket PC.
