In some (not very) exciting news from E3 Atari have revealed the new hardware that was hinted at in recent interviews with their CEO Fred Chesnais. But don't expect something revolutionary like the 2600 VCS or the Lynx, this new range is nothing more than a selection of Android tablets and smart phones. We don't have a copy of the actual catalogue yet but we do have some photos that a eagle eyed E3 attendant Tim Trzepacz, who works for SoftEgg and created the awesome music software Rhythm Core Alpha 2 for Nintendo DSi and 3DS, took with his phone.

Each system variation seems to just be a cheap Chinese Android device with the Atari name slapped on it and pre-loaded with a bunch of Atari's sub-standard mobile games. Despite the announcement there really is anything new about this, Atari probably should have done something like like before the OUYA came along - an Atari branded system like that could have worked. But this is nothing more than another cheap attempt to cash in on the name and legacy of Atari. We await to see what the actual quality of these products is like.
