    Today I got the atari. going home with 120 in my wallet (christmas money) we parked in the lotb that contained GAMEOVER in the rows. this place sold all retro. also the people knew everything there was to know about anything retro. Right in front was the huge shelf containing 100 or so games. as i checked my list, a clerk id know for a year or so asked if we were looking for anything inperticular. my excitment boiled up as i told him atari 2600 and he showed me 2 models in the display case a darth vader and the 4 switch. i chose the 4 switch(not sure) he took one out i looked at the shelves of games until finnally picking out donkey kong and jungle hunt . while idid this i also picked an extra joystick(it came with one). while i was going through this proscess my dad and the guys were playing astroids on my atari( for testing). after 20 minutes or so i went to the line and a guy about 20 or 25 asked me what i was getting. i told him atari 2600. he looked happy and i said i love atari . he said yeah! and fistbumped me. i finnally bought it. it was 95 bucks al together. my dad loaded it into th box. Now that i had it ill skip to getting it up and running. we moved the ps1 and hooked it up. i hataed the joystick at first but learned to like it. i played donkeykong for an hour or so. i beat it 30 times. i already had a bunch of atari games at my other house. so im getting a homebrew but im not sure which.
