Jim Pez Posted February 8, 2018 Share Posted February 8, 2018 Did Atari ever make any arcade port games with an arcade on the box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schizophretard Posted February 8, 2018 Share Posted February 8, 2018 The closest I can think of is a pinball machine on Video Pinball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[d2f]Iggy*SJB Posted February 8, 2018 Share Posted February 8, 2018 Coleco did it with their port of Donkey Kong.... but I honestly don't remember Atari ever doing it(previous mention of Video Pinball aside). They just whipped up some mad wicked custom art for the packaging. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
racerx Posted February 8, 2018 Share Posted February 8, 2018 I think Coleco did with all of their arcade ports... at least for the Colecovision. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Pez Posted February 15, 2018 Author Share Posted February 15, 2018 (edited) i just discovered that Carnival and zaxxon for the 2600 both had arcades on the box. Edited February 15, 2018 by jim1174 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flojomojo Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 I think Coleco did with all of their arcade ports... at least for the Colecovision. And for the "Atari 2600 VCS." All of these pictures are from right here on AtariAge. Seeing the cabinets was exciting back then, but now it seems like a missed opportunity to have some cool art. I see that many of Sega's games used the words "official arcade version" My goodness, the art for Spy Hunter ("Official Arcade Game") was wretched. Looks like Up&Down used a similar style. I preferred the paintings from the prior wave. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
