The gaming console comes in either the black and wood grain option or the black and red style, and features indicator lights, an SD card slot, an HDMI port and even four USB ports. While the Ataribox Wood Video Gaming Consoles are capable of playing modern game options, they're also designed to be suitable for use when it comes to the [classic retro titles of yesteryear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gamestation-retro). This answers the call from consumers for a stronger focus on nostalgic titles from the past. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.6/10 - Popularity: 59% | Activity: 72% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Tech](https://www.trendhunter.com/tech) > [Games](https://www.trendhunter.com/games) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Retro Gaming Consoles:** Designing gaming consoles with a retro look yet modern capabilities - **Nostalgia-based Gaming:** Creating modern gaming consoles that prioritize classic retro titles - **Sleek Gaming Consoles:** Innovating gaming consoles by incorporating wood grain and red color options ### Who This Affects Most - **Video Game Industry:** Opportunities to cater to consumers nostalgic for classic retro gaming titles while incorporating modern capabilities - **Furniture Industry:** Designing gaming consoles with a variety of aesthetically pleasing options such as wood grain and red accents to cater to home theater setups - **Interior Design Industry:** Creating and integrating gaming consoles that can blend seamlessly into modern home decor while still providing retro gaming options ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Wood-Paneled VR Headsets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/atari-vr-headset.md) - [Modernized Nostalgic Gaming Consoles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/atari-gamestation-pro.md) - [Nostalgic 90s-Inspired Gaming Consoles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/analogue-3d-funtastic.md) - [Backwards-Compatible Gaming Consoles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/atari-7800-plus.md) - [Reimagined Retro Gaming Consoles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/atari-2600-console.md) - [Ultra-Minimal Arcade Gaming Cabinets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wooden-arcade-cabinet.md) - [Ultra-Compact Gamer Console Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tiny-gaming-console.md) - [See-Through Cartridge Gaming Consoles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/modretro-m64.md) - [Revived 80s-Era Gaming Consoles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/atari-intellivision-sprint.md)
