Kim Komando talks Atari 2600

Saw this in the paper about an article about video games and how some of them can be expensive:

The Atari 2600 videogame system launched in 1977 and was a huge hit. It sold millions of units over the years, and you probably had one if you were growing up at the time. The game console isn't a rare item that fetches tons of money - unless of course, it's still factory-sealed. And certain copies of games can bring in thousands of dollars. The rarest game is Red Sea Crossing, and it was recently valued at more than $10,000. Most people didn't even know it existed until it turned up at a garage sale in 2007.

Seems the only time classic gaming is mentioned in modern media is when $$$$ are involved. Never for the games themselves. Never for the cool hardware from 40 years ago. And most definitely never for emulators.
