I will list all of the great titles to look for, as well as give you the link for buying up to 50 games for 100.00 or less free shipping. Atari2600.com is where to go.Okay, now, I was born in the Early 90’s, so i remember a time when games were not 3D movies, and in the Snes’ Heyday, Mario was king. I never knew of the Atari back then, only heard my mom, grandma and aunt talk about how much fun it was and how cool all the games were, they really seemed to Love the thing back then. Yet, i still never saw one until i was 7, my mom brought home a weird looking consonle, that was small and had metal switches on it. I didnt know what it was, but it looked weird, and on top of that, It was a Sears model atari 2600, which i figured out later on.My brother and i did not know what to do with it and our step dad hooked it up, I saw the COmbat cartridge and popped it in. Sounded cool, and Boy, me and my brother had a blast on this “NEW” gaming thing, and it was awesome shooting at one another from tanks. We wanted to play all night but we had to go to school or something, and i never recall playing it again until i was well up and grown as an adult. Now im Completely obsessed with atari and its 8-bit Pixel Action!The graphics are pretty Dad gummed good, but who cares about the graphics because it makes up for that in gameplay. Top down action from Centipede, Zelda characteristics in Adventure, and there is even a Mario Bros. cartridge! YAY ME!Now, the 2600 is not a “WIFI” kinda thing, i.

Good system and very clean. Forgot the RF switch but they sent a replacement out right away! The post description didn’t match the description below the photos which mentioned coming with games and paddles which it didn’t. Hopefully they change the lower product description so people know what they’re getting for sure.

Bought this for my 13 yo son who likes to collect retro games systems. He really enjoys it. Came very well packaged and as described, however in better shape than I thought it would be. Looked great. Plays well. Only downside is adapter for new TV’s, and that’s not shops fault. The screen is a little snowy. I think I may need to buy a better fitting adapter. Came with 10 games, all in good shape. Happy with purchase.
