These items wear uncovered in 1996

when Atari went out of business.

 

These wear part of a small cache of unused

boxes found in the Art Dept. when they

were cleaning out the building.

 

This box is literally straight from the

printer and has never been unfolded to put

the game in.

 

 

 

 

HISTORY OF ATARI 2800:

-------------------------------------

 

The Atari 2600 was not released in JAPAN, instead it went

by the name Atari 2800 and was not very popular mainly because within

a few months the FAMICOM / NES was released and the Japanese

consumers decided to go with that system instead, the 2800 was discontinued

shortly after.
