The Atari 2600 video game system -- which was the first successful console ever -- is making a comeback. Starting in November, the Atari 2600+ will be available.

This thing looks like the original, which was released in 1977. It's got a front wood panel, four simple switches, and comes with an old school joystick.

To play it, users have to insert physical cartridges. The bundle includes a collection of 10 titles, such as Combat, Maze Craze, Missile Command, Video Pinball and Yars’ Revenge.

The system launches on November 17th -- just in time for the holidays -- for $130.
