Atari 2600 is by far the best game console ever made. The games had tight memory, slow CPU speed, and a lack of a video card, which made programming them a serious challenge. Creating anything on an Atari was a success, much less an award winning game. The game designers today have it easy.

Space Invaders has been a classic video game for nearly thirty years, and when it was brought home to the Atari and Sears home systems it became legendary. People bought game systems just to play this game alone, which made it the first 'killer app' software. It's easy to learn, difficult to master, fun, and can be returned to time after time. What more can you ask of a game? Here's a game hint: on starting up the game hold down the reset button while turning on the power. You'll get two shots instead of one! On a side note: the programmer of the home version, Rick Maurer, was paid $11,000 bonus on top of his salary by Atari. Shocking in light of the fact that the game sold close to 10 million copies and made the company millions in profits. G. Reese
It's a great game and in perfect condition. I'm really happy with this purchase.
