ajzepp Posted October 15, 2012 Posted October 15, 2012 So many great memories with this console and so many long, wonderful hours of playing! My three favorite 2600 memories: 1) the day my parents gave in and we brought it home, along with space invaders.... 2) the time when I was at a buddies house and my mom called to tell me they got a copy of pacman for when I got home 3) convincing my aunt that when the little guys in circus atari missed the teeter-totters and splatted into the ground, that at some point you needed to open up the back of the tv and clean out all the dead guys.
BillsFanM.D. Posted October 15, 2012 Posted October 15, 2012 This was the greatest invention ever. Sadly, my most vivid memories are those of my brother walking by and quickly hitting the game reset switch just to be a jerk. Most of the time, this occurred after hours of play.
KD in CA Posted October 15, 2012 Posted October 15, 2012 17. It held the first Easter Egg.The 2600 game Adventure has gaming's first Easter Egg. Developer Warren Robinett, frustrated with the company's policy of not crediting workers, put a message reading "Created by Warren Robinett" in a secret room in the game, but didn't tell a single co-worker. I remember finding this....I must have read where it was on the internet.
