Atari 40th Anniversary book

[Zeptari1]

Just got mine today at Barnes&Noble.

Totally worth it.

It's from the makers of Retro Gamer magazine.

Wouldn't be a problem if I lived in the U.K. I guess this book ain't popular for Yanks.

Thanks for reporting that. Please let us know what you think.....i.e. "mini-review."

Well.....have been reading here and there and have found out alot of things I never knew. I'm sure others already know about the Nintendo deal.....but I never knew that Atari was approached to release the Famicom boards inside a system with Atari's name on it. Wow how that would have changed things.

 

The book is great. Goes in to great detail from the 2600 up to the Jag. They also profile developers. If you are in the US......look at the magazine section if your Barnes and Noble carries Retro Gamer. There were only 2 copies at mine. 19.99 was the sale price.
