If I wanted any of those Atari 2600s what should I be expected to pay for it?

Not too bad. I'm sure if I looked for one it wouldn't be too hard to find.

But I suppose the real cost comes in when you're actually looking to buy cartridges for it, huh?

I don't suppose the original Metal Slug counts as a classic game...

Does it?

Yep, Atari 2600s are easy to find and still relatively cheap. The only thing bumping them up in price is nostalgia factor.

Sean, just checked and, yes, I do have Adventures of Tron for the 2600. Just let me know.

The controllers aren't bad. I think they're just replicas of the old Atari 7800 controllers.

I don't blame you. It's not the same to own the 2600 with 7800 controllers. Loses some of the appeal of the system. Do you have the paddle controllers for your 2600?

I know. Not the actual Atari Pong screen. Close. Best I could do on short notice.

I HAVE BOTH OF THE TRON GAMES FOR THE 2600. I EVEN HAVE TWO SETS OF PADDLE CONTROLLERS. I SAW THE ATARI 2600 AT BEST BUY THE OTHER DAY. IT'S SIMILAR TO THE ARCADE CLASSICS AS I BELIEVE THAT THE GAMES ARE PRELOADED.
