Way back when.Late 70s or early 80s.I cant remember the time.I was gave my first Atari 2600.She was beautiful.Black with wood grain.6-switches and the Atari logo on the front of the system.It came with 2 black controllers with one button on each.It was used.My Aunt and Uncle's old Atari.But i didnt care, it was a 2600 and i finally had one.My friends were all glad am sure that i had gotten that 2600.No more of me spending hours on end at there houses,playing all there games.I was on cloud nine.Just me and my Atari 2600.Days spent playing the greats,Pitfall,Pac-Man,Missle Command,Asteroids,Space Invaders,and so many more.I just couldnt get anuff of Atari.It was a huge chunk of my life.Playing and trading games with my friends.Trying to beat each others high scores,and talking about what the next big game was coming out.So many great memories.Not just playing Atari but spending time with my friends and family.Thank you Atari.For being there for me then and now.
