Because we think old school games are more fun, we like this upcoming Atari Flashback Portable that bests previous flashbacks by going mobile. The compact package holds dozens of Atari games and requires no cartridges. What's more, all games are uploaded using a USB port (although there aren't any details yet on how that will happen) and it has two ports for joysticks, enabling two-player games. Designed by Curt Vendel (who also heads up the online Atari History Museum), the unit will run on three AAA batteries giving it a 15-hour life and it includes an AV output for TV or headphones. There's no word yet on when it will come out, but we bet it will be at least in time for the holidays.
