This is Genius! Atari x PAC-MAN Deep Dive

https://www.pcbway.com/activity/anniversary11th.html - PCB fabrication, assembly, 3D printing, CNC machining & more! The Atari 2600+ console was released in 2023 with support for original 2600 and 7800 cartridges on your modern TV. Since then we've had the 7800+ and cartridge releases and re-releases, but this new collab with Bandai Namco really is something else - with some very nice little nods to some obscure Atari and Namco history.
