The first game in the series was released in 1990 for most popular contemporary 8-bit and 16-bit computer systems, the Amiga version being the most technically advanced. The game allowed the player to race a Lotus Esprit Turbo SE car through several (32 in the Amiga version) circuit race tracks of varying scenery. Two player simultaneous play (with split screen) was also provided, and a choice of audio tracks to accompany races.
Each track is lap-based and consists of turns of varying degrees, as well as hills and hollows which slow down or speed up the car passing through them. Each turn is indicated by a chain of road-side signs, and the difficulty of the turn is reflected by the number and density of these signs - a feature common to all titles in the Lotus series.
So I got this Atari 2600 clone, it's builted in a Famicom shell. At first glance you could get confused but once you see the size of the cart slot you realize that in fact is an atari 2600.
This is the space. It came with a few sweet-looking red dragons on the walls, several pieces of stickynote art, and a whole lot of empty square feet.
Just what we were looking for.
The PS2 has been rebooted into a different anthology, this time an Activision release full of Atari 2600 games. I swear, every time I looked at this system, it was playing a new game.
Graffiti based on old school atari game system. LOVE the colors of the original package design and the whole concept of futurism when it first came out.

An Atari patch I've had since the '80's spent a few hours looking out from the inside of a block of ice. Incidentally, to me, that is and always will be for Atari computers, not the game consoles :)
