http://beginnergamecollecting.info/category/game-collecting/Speaking of the economic recession, here's a bit of game-related spending that flies in the face of saving money for a rainy day. Old game consoles   more...like the Atari 2600 and Nintendo Entertainment System have since become hotbeds of collector furor, with some of the rarest games for these vintage systems going for hundreds.  less

Yeah...I'm sharing my Atari 2600 collection with the world. Let's see how I do on Livevideo, eh?

I had absolutely nothing better to do... I think I will go watch some cartoons now.

OK, so you want to know how they put the game together back in the 1980's when you get an Atari System (2600 back then). Here, you will see the company, Imagic, design team, on planning, write the program,   more...and put it together. Back then the game was programmed on COBOL, a computer programing language (like UNIX). Memory was part of the big factor when putting the game together. This was shown on PBS from Enterprise series long time ago. Title of this one is "All in the Game". Off topic, they did a documentary of a first major airline that filed for bankrupty and did went bankrupt which is Baniff Airlines.  less

Part 2 of the documentry of the show. Here, you will see the design trying to put the game together, being tested by kids to see if the game will fly. Imagic crew went to a consumer electronic show in   more...Chicago, IL which is a big deal back then (now E3 show in Los Angeles) to promote the product and/or service and what the competition has to offer. You will also hear the song "Pac-man Fever". The president of the company is trying to put in a sales pitch, both foreign and domestic. Also putting the game together in a factory.  less
