Now, the above may not be a retro console per se, but it does feature some classic Atari tech despite the admittedly contemporary Nintendo DS screen. Other than that, it's an excellent and fully working Atari 2600 (VCS) handheld created from scratch. Have a look (and do also give this link a try).

That'd actually be a cool little gadget. I'm not even sure if my Atari still works, but I've still got the cartridges and classic ones at that! Pac-Man Jr., Pole position, Phoenix and Millipede
