Longing for the gameplay of the Twentieth Century’s favorite 8-bit video game console? No longer do you have to pine! Take a nostalgic trip down retro gaming lane with this faithful reproduction of 10 Classic Atari games built into the vintage Atari Joystick. See what it’s like all over again to play games like Asteroids, Pong & Yar’s Revenge — games that helped define a generation and set the pace for todays massively popular video game culture.
Built in menu allows easy navigation to the different games available. The basic plot/storyline of each game as well as instructions are then displayed before the game begins. Once it begins, you will be floored by the sheer programming power available thirty years ago to the average consumer as you deftly master the movement of pixels in complex interaction with one another…
If you are old enough to remember getting excited about games like these – then you’ll certainly want to call all your old pals, grab a few beers, and sit down to play and reminisce about just how gullible you were (or conversely how imaginative you must have been ;). And if you are too young to remember games like these, chances are you have become increasingly spoiled and a blast from the past is precisely what you’ll need to appreciate just how good you’ve had it. Despite the utter simplicity of some of these games in relation to recent 2003 console gaming titles though – they are still pretty addictive and surprisingly still fun to play.
