    1. I played it in 1974 in a hotel in Switzerland. That was my introduction to video games. I haven't looked back.

      Obviously you can see the new content now. Cool!

  2. I played this, but not when it came out. One of my uncles had an atari system -- I don't know if it was his or left over from his kids -- and when we were staying with him in Texas for a week in the early 1990s, he let me explore his Atari library. Mostly I remember FROGGER.

    1. Some of my wealthier friends had Atari or Commodore 64 computers, but I had to wait a bit for that luxury so missed out on some of the earliest games. I do remember Frogger though - and variations thereof. My early favourite was definitely Space Invaders. I got quite good at that!

  3. I played this! My youngest uncle had an Atari and I loved playing it. I was so bummed when he sold it. But at least my original NES and SNES still work!

    1. Seems we *all* had these experiences growing up!
