1981 Atari Catalog

If you've ever wondered why I don't have more Atari coverage, one reason is because I got an Intellivision in 1981 and loved it years before acquiring a 2600. Two of my uncles had the 2600, and one eventually gave me his, and both gave me a bunch of loose cartridges. Another reason, and why I haven't made videos of Atari games, is that my system is outputting a very poor picture. I think the cable that's hardwired to the console needs to be replaced, and I'm not skilled at electronics repairs. I'll record some gameplay if I ever do get it repaired or get a replacement. I've got 37 cartridges, including many classics like Super Breakout, Pac-Man, Defender, Asteroids, Space Invaders, Joust, Missile Command, Pole Position, Combat, Pong Sports, and Crystal Castles, as well as River Raid, but that one is broken. In any case, here are scans of a 45-year-old Atari catalog that features 45 games, and has the apostrophe in the wrong place for Yars' Revenge.
