    This looks to be the next trend… retro gaming I mean.

    Few days ago I read that Leonardo DiCaprio well play the role of Atari founder in a movie next year or so.

    My brother and I had this unit. It was so cool. It was the first game console I ever saw with removable cartidges. I spent countless hours playing the racing game. I think the default cartridge had some kind of western shoot out game and of course TV pong.

    The Western game was the best. This was all kinds of fun. I can remember playing this during the blizzard of 1978 in Boston as a kid with my brother.
