ATARI HAS FAILED with their VCS console and for this reason, this title is a pass for me. They released the VCS in Canada shortly after the domestic USA release and then about a year or so later, suddenly stopped selling VCS products in Canada. No announcement. Nothing. Customers of the VCS are now no longer able to purchase controllers and joysticks, additional consoles, or the USB flash drive with their operating system. To exit a market is one thing. To do so without so much as an announcement is another. People have pointed this out in their Discord server on a few occasions and they still refuse to provide any formal information about the removal of VCS products. For this reason, I cannot take them seriously and am passing on anything Atari. It is a niche domestic company, not a serious global company.

I really wish they'd strike up a deal with Activision, to add many of the best games for this. Activision played such a huge roll in Atari's history that it always seems weird to not have any of it included. Pitfall!, Kaboom, Crackpots, Skiing, River Raid, Boxing, Barnstorming, and much more. Though I feel very much the same about many other games not included here. Games such as E.T., Pac-Man, Indiana Jones, Halloween, Superman, The Empire Strikes Back, Donkey Kong, and so on. They are such a huge part of its history.

I want to ask Evelyn Seto why in 1982 there were not one, not two, but THREE 2600 cartridge packaging changes. So from the beginning of '82 to the end, there were FOUR packaging variations of 2600 games! And *then* in less than 6 months into 1983 they changed yet again starting with GALAXIAN! Things settled down after that with minor variations for things like the Sesame Street or Muppets titles and the next major change was in 1986 starting with JR. PAC-MAN.

Watching a Metal Jesus video gets me out of my depression. Love your videos brother.

Loved the video as always! These are my comfort videos. My dad hasn’t really been around for a while and you kinda feel like my RU-vid dad lol, these videos always make me happy :D

The Atari 50th Anniversary Collection is the gift that keeps on giving. I was psyched when they added War Birds for the Lynx in the last update.

Definitely need to pick this up, though that November DLC, and "The First Console War"... didn't Atari get the rights to the Intellivision catalog? I wonder if Atari is planning on including some Intellivision releases on that? Hmmm....it's just weird enough to work.
