Atari 2600 VCS Games Videos

This is a collection of video clips recorded while briefly playing some of the games in my Atari 2600 collection.
These are original games, played on original Atari hardware, with a camera pointing at the TV screen... not video grabs taken from an emulator - hence the somewhat dodgy video quality of some of the clips.

Adventure	Asteroids	Battlezone	Berzerk
Centipede	Chopper Command	Commando	Defender
Dig Dug	Donkey Kong	Empire Strikes Back	Enduro
Frogger	Galaxian	Kangaroo	Mario Bros
Missile Command	Ms Pac-Man	Pac-Man	Phoenix
Pitfall	Pole Position	Popeye	Q*Bert
River Raid	Space Invaders	Spiderman	Stargate / Defender II
Super Cobra	Superman	Yars' Revenge

The comments in these clips should by no means be taken as definitive, as the games were very often being played for the first time, or the first time in many years, and are based entirely on first impressions.

The objective here was merely to show what classic console and computer games looked like in days gone by, for the benefit of "the playstation generation", who may be unfamiliar with such vintage games and systems.

They are also here for nostalgia purposes, for that "I remember this game from when I was a kid" moment.
