A classic home console from Atari. None of its games are worth going back to today, as they did not age well.

Retro Gaming Nostalgia: The Atari 2600 Era

Wed, 01 Jul 2026 21:36:13 PDT

Step back into a classic 1980s living room with this ultimate retro gaming setup. Resting on a thick, plush shag carpet is the iconic Atari 2600 console, complete with its signature wood grain paneling, classic joysticks, and a paddle controller.

An old school wood cabinet CRT television brings the scene to life, running the legendary side scrolling adventure game Pitfall!. To the right, a stack of vintage cartridges including Pac-Man, Space Invaders, and Adventure promises hours of classic 8-bit entertainment. The background sets the perfect nostalgic mood with authentic faux wood paneled walls, a glowing lava lamp, and a textured vintage sofa.

An image of the classic video game system that started it all, the Atari 2600, originally known as Atari Video Computer System or Atari VCS for short, released way back in 1977. The model shown is the later 4-switch version rather than the initial 6-switch where the difficulty levers are moved to the back. Although not actually the first built home console, as the Magnavox Odyssey predates it by five years in '72, the Atari is indeed the first system to be a revolutionary success and setting the foundation of the video game industry since.

Looking back, the Atari is super, super basic compared to today's standards even more so than the NES (4KB game memory and 1.19MHz CPU), but it was advanced for its day. Anyone who grew up with it or at least played it would remember certain hit games like Space Invaders, Missile Command, Adventure, Haunted House, Pole Position, Berzerk, and more. But the wildest thing about this console in spite of its simplicity is that the Atari itself is far more expensive than you think...

Its original retail price back then was $199.99. Sure, that doesn't sound too much, but this is '77 money, keep in mind. When inflated to today in 2025, not including extra controllers or games, it would actually cost you $1071.89 -- way more than the already overpriced Nintendo Switch 2 ever could ($449.99)!! The likely reason is because video gaming was brand new in the 1970s and was such a different era in general, it was considered luxurious. So, if you're an owner of an Atari 2600, try to remember how historically important it is. If it wasn't for that vintage woodgrain console, we wouldn't have Nintendo and anything else after it.

No Quarter for your Atari 2600

Nothing will stop Byron J. Lennox from getting enough quarters to take to the arcade... even an acid rain storm! Dodge the drops while snapping up coins and returning them to the left hand side of the screen, but beware! Each quarter you grab ramps up the difficulty, and each new level introduces new brick patterns and pits that can't wait to swallow little bears. They're best served with bear-naise sauce... just ask Berthilda the Witch!

No Quarter! Now for your Atari 2600! Check out arugulaz.itch.io for more information.

I'm Franco Santilario.
Welcome to Franco Santilario's Video Game Histories.
Atari 2600 History (1977-1992)
- - - - -
The Atari 2600 was released in 1977.
The first game on Atari 2600 was called "Combat".
I rarely played any game on Atari 2600, but before the rest of its games, I need to tell you more about this home game console.
Did you know the Atari 2600 can play as two played with its two squared controllers?
Check also this graphics out, those pixel arts are the most interesting graphics on Atari 2600 I never seen.
It's been clearly a while since I already saw its graphics on a normal TV before you can restore it and repair it before you can transform it into HDMI version for your HD TV or 4K TV. Atari 2600 games like Taz & Space Invaders (Atari 2600 version).

An Inspiration From An Old Atari 2600 Game?

Sun, 03 May 2026 19:56:42 PDT

Here's a little game that has gotten my attention this time around... and yeah, you're seeing a different colored Switch Lite. One photo will explain why it is so, but for now, here's the game in mind.

Millionaire Escape (Switch Download): When i looked at this game, i noticed that there's some striking resemblance to an old Atari 2600 game... and for good reasons, as this one seems to be inspired by Activision's Keystone Kapers, where the police officer has to catch a runaway crook before he could escape the building. The gameplay of that one is similar to the Atari 2600 game, though more modernized (if seeing it being pixelated as such is even considered to be modernized and all that), so while i've played the original game, this inspired version is all too familiar to me, so i should have no problems playing this... i think. Oh, by the way, this game costed me just one lousy penny (that's 0,01$ canadian, if you will) to get it. Weird, huh?

Copyrights of this photo belongs to me, while copyrights of Millionaire Escape belongs to Game Nacional.
