A journal designed with a clever package to resemble Atari's best-selling
2600 games
Officially licensed and designed to look like the original game cartridge,
ADVENTURE- The Atari 2600 Game Journal features endpapers with color
screenshots of gameplay (including an Easter egg planted by the designer) as
well as an insert with instructions from the original game manual. With
black-edged pages and sticker artwork showcasing the iconic orange dragon,
ADVENTURE- The Atari 2600 Game Journal is a pixilated trip down
memory lane.
In 1977, Atari released their first programmable cartridge system, the VCS,
in a daring attempt to bring gaming from arcade halls to living rooms. Later
rebranded the Atari 2600, the gaming system became an essential part of
80's culture, selling millions of units until its remodel in 1992. Despite the
variations that followed, the Atari 2600 games are seen as the pioneers of
video gaming, and are the foundation for many game designs, platforms, and
systems in rotation today.
