Tempest Posted July 27, 2001 Share Posted July 27, 2001 I have a red boardered 01 Combat in the box. It was a pack in with the Heavy Sixer 2600. You can't get much older than that. Tempest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joel D. Park Posted July 27, 2001 Share Posted July 27, 2001 Fine.

+-^CrossBow^- Posted July 27, 2001 Share Posted July 27, 2001 Atari90s: The VCS wasn't released until 77. So therefore there wouldn't be any combats before that either I wouldn't think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nateo Posted July 28, 2001 Author Share Posted July 28, 2001 In the favorite item of your collection post, jahfish asked a question that got me going. What is the oldest looking item in your collection? Mine is a Street Racer cart that has an old text label. The box for it looks just as old, dating 1978.

mos6507 Posted August 1, 2001 Share Posted August 1, 2001 >> The VCS wasn't released until 77. So therefore there wouldn't be any combats before that either I wouldn't think. << The ROM release date for COMBAT (when it had to get sent out for manufacturing) is April 4, 1977 according to Larry Wagner's notes (File DESIGN/VCS065.GIF on the Stella v.2 CD). The first 9 games and their initial names and ROM delivery dates were: 1) Combat -> Combat By Larry Wagner, ROM RELEASE: 4/4/77 2) AntiAircraft -> Air-Sea Battle By Larry Kaplan, ROM RELEASE: 3/11/77 3) Space -> Starship By Bob Whitehead, ROM RELEASE: 5/5/77 4) Racecar -> Indy 500 By Ed Riddle, ROM RELEASE: 4/28/77 5) Paddle -> Video Olympics By Joe Decuir, ROM RELEASE: 5/27/77 6) Wheels -> Street Racer By Larry Kaplan, ROM RELEASE: 6/25/77 (BTW, Wheels is the name of the obscure Midway game this was based on) 7) Blockade -> Surround By Al Miller, ROM RELEASE: 6/15/77 Gambling -> Blackjack By Bob Whitehead, ROM RELEASE: 6/30/77 9) Math Pack -> Basic Math By Gary Palmer, ROM RELEASE: 6/15/77 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
