This is a short video clip of me playing Q*Bert by Parker Brothers on the Atari 2600 VCS retro video games console.
The first arcade game produced by pinball manufacturer Gottlieb, Q*Bert was originally named
"Snots And Boogers" and "@!#?@!?" while being developed.
While, predicably, the graphics of the Atari 2600 version are more basic, the gameplay remains quite authentic.
This and the other retro gaming clips on this site aren't intended as full game reviews, but are simply to give viewers who weren't around when these games were popular, an idea of what video games used to be like.
