Not sure how many people here are big atari fans who like to play guess the Atari game, but my IRC pals liked playing so thought I'd ask here too. About a month ago I found a used game store in my home town; one week before their going out of business sale.  So while I was buying everything I could, I was focusing on the Atari and Nes stuff (Since that's all I had catalogged at that point and knew what I owned).  There was one cart I picked up and he didn't charge me for, a 2600 game with no label.  With no label I still would have picked it up, but it was a cart by Apollo, so I knew it was at least a 3-4 on the atari age rarity scale, with a chance of an 8-9 rarity.  Well, I just played it and labeled it, anyone wanna take a guess what it is first?

  • I have no label. Maybe I'm not a gamer at all?

I'm gonna guess at the other end of the rarity scale and go with shark attack or space chase.

Well the cart is now labeled....


played it for about 2-3 mins before I discovered all my 2600 joysticks are acting up and needing cleaned, then I played another 5 mins using a genesis pad. Not bad, but the game had way too many cheap shots.
