As many of you on the site know, I'm an avid collector of Atari 2600 and NES titles. While I'm going for a complete, licensed collection of the later, I am very realistic about my collecting goals for the 2600. For those of you who love and collect for this system like I do, you know that this goal is impossible for the Average Joe. During the days of the 2600, licensing laws were quite more lackadaisical and it seems like anyone and everyone with programming skills tried their hand at developing games for the 2600. Many of these games saw small production numbers, and this has resulted in astronomical prices in today's market due to the high demand of serious Atari collectors. And let's face it, I'm not one of those guys who can justify paying ridiculous amounts just to have a game in my possession. On the other hand, I'm not the kind of guy who wants to play an emulated version of a game on his PC. So what's a guy like me to do?

Many of you in this community probably know me, for better or worse, primarily as "that Atari 2600 game reviewer guy." My love for the 2600 stems from my love of the system as a youth, and the notorious "Christmas Incident of '82," in which I had asked for an "Atari" for Christmas and woke up Christmas to a brand new 5200 system with 6 new games..... Why notorious you ask? Have you ever played a 5200, or know what it's like to be the only kid in town with this piece of s#*t non-backwards compatible system? So why the love for the 2600 due to my hatred for the 5200? That's probably a better question for someone like Freud to answer.
Dear child, I can feel your anger running through you....good
