Tesla adds '2048' and Atari’s 'Super Breakout' to its dashboards

To date, hundreds of thousands of people have played those games, according to the automaker.
Rare Atari Breakout handheld shows up on eBay
It's certainly not the first bit of super rare Atari gear to show up on eBay, but those looking to expand their collection may want to take stock of their bank account right about now, as the Super Breakout handheld prototype pictured above (apparently one of only two known to exist) is now up for auction with less than a day to go. As you might have guessed, it doesn't actually work, or even have the finished branding, but it apparently is the real deal -- purchased directly from the handheld's designer, no less. If that's got you all nostalgic for what could have been, you'll only have to beat $385 (as of this writing) to be the top bidder, although you can be sure you'll have to drop a good deal more than that if you actually want to get your hands on it.[Via OhGizmo!]
