I know that it was made by Activision, but I couldn't say that it was my most played Activision game, but it probably is, idk. This is the Atari 2600 emulated on a Wii, however, I have played this one more on an Atari 800XL with a Sega Genesis controller, this is by far my most played game of the pre-NES era of games, it does everything that one wants from an arcade game at home, it has push and pull (with the fuel things), tons of stages, the plane is very easy to control yet the game is hard to master, lots of variety in enemies, etc, the end result is a game that you can play for hours, and even after you know everything it has to offer, it still feels nice to come back and get a higher score.

This is an example of an Atari game that has aged well that can still be enjoyed today no problems, in fact, I played with my cousin when he was 10, we played this game for hours, and even though he usually only cared for Minecraft and wasn't very patient, even though I had a vast collection of games with his favorites like Super Mario Maker, we still played for hours, that's how good and relevant this game is. I wish for everyone to give themselves the chance to play and appreciate old games.
