1977 Sears Tele-Games Video Arcade | For Some of Us, THIS Was Atari!
877The Atari 2600 is a home video game console developed and produced by Atari, Inc. Released in September 1977 as the Atari Video Computer System (Atari VCS), it popularized microprocessor-based hardware and games stored on swappable ROM cartridges, a format first used with the Fairchild Channel F in 1976. The VCS was bundled with two joystick controllers, a conjoined pair of paddle controllers, and a game cartridgeโinitially Combat and later Pac-Man. Sears sold the system as the Tele-Games Video Arcade. The Sears variant is, in fact, the one Jon grew up playing, and just this week he was able to re-acquire that very model for his collection. Have a look!
