    There is something incorrect about the information here. The 2600 came out about 1987 before that it was the wooden atari but it was not called the 2600. The greatest breakthrough imo was the atari 520st. It had a 16 track recording deck built in which was ahead of its time

    btw combat for the win :D

    1987 console was the Atari 7800, which I have. It was backwards compatible with the 2600, aswell as having its own games.
    I love Alien Brigade for that.

    I mentioned this in another thread:



    This game was the only game I was able to get my whole family to sit down and play. It was also the first game my mum could easily beat me in.
