In 1979, Atari launched the Atari 400 and 800, pioneering home computers known for their advanced graphics and sound capabilities. Fast forward to 2023, Polish engineer Piotr "Osa" Ostapowicz has introduced "Atarino," potentially the smallest 8-bit Atari computer, compacting all essential hardware onto a module measuring just 2×1.5 centimeters. Utilizing modern FPGA technology, Atarino faithfully replicates the original Atari architecture, distinguishing itself from software emulators by running retro games directly and supporting original peripherals. Ostapowicz's project has been in development for over a decade, showcasing innovation in retro computing.
Polish engineer Piotr "Osa" Ostapowicz has unveiled Atarino, a remarkably compact 8-bit Atari computer re-creation that fits on a module the size of a postage stamp.
Atarino reproduces the original Atari components at the logic level, allowing it to run vintage software while maintaining compatibility with original peripherals.
