Nostalgia is king. As Hollywood cashes in on “Aladdin,” “Toy Story,” and “Fast and Furious” sequels and remakes, technology companies are following a similar path.
In 2017, Nintendo released its Super NES Classic Mini. Sega's Genesis Mini comes out Sept. 19. Now Sony wants to join the trend, announcing a 40th anniversary Walkman called the NW-A100TPS.
“Not everything was better back then, so you can enjoy the best of both worlds with the heritage design of Walkman whilst having cutting edge technology at your fingertips,” Sony said in a press release. “You can also enjoy a cassette tape user interface that takes inspiration from classic Walkman models.”
The new retro device supports both downloaded and streaming music. Its storage is minimal -- 16GB -- but it sports a microSD card slot so you can boost your device’s memory.
