On Atari 5200


Hero One of the best games of all time on any console.


Pitfall II


Space Dungeon. This game was innovative b/c you needed two controllers to play it. One moved the ship and the other fired in the direction you pushed.
It came with this contraption to hold two atari 5200 controllers. Brilliant idea and really fun game.

I hadn’t played it in 35 years and my kids had never seen me play it.

I did about a year ago in front of them.

They were astounded.

The contrast of my COD skilz to that was major.

My FiL has one of the Atari console flattop units they had at Sam’s a few years ago. I sat down for thanksgiving with my two nephews and played it. I hadn’t played in a while, so I was a little rusty. I made it to stage 10 I think before I lost my first life. My nephew was in awe.

I then started explaining the concept of quick save and you didn’t auto respawn after you die.
