This is funny... I was not around for these commercials, but they are funny.
Watch yo' mouth, young 'un.... I remember these ads all too well.
I remember it, had it, and loved it....You notice that the game they show is the same as brick breaker on your BB now? Haha, now that's funny:)
I love the seriousness of the announcer. The amazement
Never had one but ad is cool :P

Haha I remember these too :) I also remember the ones that the only game was pong and the only options were 1 or 2 player.
What gets me about alot of this is the orgin of the "video game" originated with the military trying to develop a missile weapons defense system. These programs were adapted into simple games.
The evolution of the video game has died and been resurrected over 6 generations and counting.

Thanks for the flashback with that Jrod. (and all your other posts too) I got that for my boys Christmas of 1980 I believe (or right around that time frame anyway) Who would have thought my eldest son would repay it (for a lack of better words) and get me a BlackBerry 30 years later. And to boot I can tell the whole world about it through this internet thing and I still have that Atari till this day. Both joysticks n all
Anyone remember "Combat"?
"combat" was the best !!!Quote:
