I grew up with the 2600 and still enjoy some games like Adventure,Haunted House or Starmaster mostly games that have a end goal.Im not into playing for high scores anymore. |

Personally, I'd take Intellivision over Atari 2600 any day. There's a much more interesting variety of games, IMO. |

The Atari 2600 and all the rest of the 1980's consoles up until the 1989 release of the SEGA Genesis had 8-bit processing power |

They sold those joystick kits for the stock controllers , but it was like putting a Band-Aid on a knife wound . I picked up a TandyVision One last year and those controllers certainly bring back bad memories . |

You can on the Atari 2600. |
