I just put a brand new label on my copy of Mousetrap too. It’s label feel off and disappeared 🤷😂. I think you got a good Christmas present that year! And you’re most welcome. I hope you had a good laugh too.
Here is where it gets FUNNY: when I was writing my VoiceOver for these games, I remembered 95% of the games' stories. I researched them and looked at some of the online manuals too if I knew I didn't own the manual (or it wasn't easily accessible). However, with Lock N Chase, I own the manual, it's in a closet 53 feet from my desk, and I never read it- ever. My best friend had this game first when we were kids and I "remembered" that when we played the game we were the cop and the blue guys were thieves. And perhaps this is the first game I ever played where I was the bad guy (and didn't know it). GTA from years ago HAHA! See how memory can switch things and all I had to do is read the manual in my closet? Lesson learned there right? Anyway, I thought I would share that. Have a great weekend!
@@GAMECLOSET Oh wow! Glad to set the story straight for you! Y'know, I have a similar story - after decades of playing tennis and saying 'ad-in' and 'ad-out', I'd always assumed it was 'add a point in/out' - but my wife set me straight last night and said it actually means 'advantage in/out'... mind... blown... :)
Aw man, you missed an opportunity! In Alien you said that it's not as good as Ripley's flamethrower, but the flamethrower is in the game! It makes the Aliens switch directions. :)
Although it pained me to watch Atari games this was fun, some of them didn’t look too bad honestly! Why do I want Quaker Oats all of a sudden 🤔 Crazy you crammed this many games in 31 min! Great Job Scott ❤️🎮
Thank you for watching, Rob! Yeah, there’s some great stuff here. Some are what I consider “must have” because of people’s nostalgia for the games and that they are memorable; but some are just stellar and very well made that are super fun and challenging even now. Like Jawbreaker and Omega Race, what great titles. Realsports Volleyball andPac-Man aren’t a stellar titles, but are fun and worth owning. And yes, I made this video for everyone- even Atari holdouts like yourself! 😂
😂😂😂 Well, maybe not the only one. These two huge lists of 91 games I complied definitely have games for all attention spans. There are a TON of shovelware games (especially from the early days: Space War? Fun With Numbers? Codebreaker? Sssnake? Bugs? UGH!!!!). But these are definitely compelling. One that looks amazing but not even the manual can make sense is Pressure Cooker. WTF do you do? There’s no real rhyme or reason to its menu system and what you’re supposed to make. 🤷 But Jawbreaker is amazing. I have another Atari list video coming, but this will be a BEST of the BEST only. (And a much smaller list). Thanks, Jason!
@marccaselle8108 absolutely. There are a select few games that can keep one occupied for a longer period of time, but they exist for sure. These are the ones that were engineered well and their quality stood the test of time. There are a couple I didn’t mention in either video that are GREAT Games, but I didn’t feel were “must have” titles due to their difficulty. But that’s another video… 😁😎
If you liked this video, here is the first 51 carts we checked out! Enjoy!

Mousetrap was a Christmas present one year! Thanks for the nostalgia trip ❤

Loved the romp through nostalgia land... at 11:38, I remember that Lock n' Chase, the PLAYER was the thief collecting loot and running from the cops?
YES!!! Omg! I think I got it backwards in the video!!! 😂😂😂😂😂 I might be getting old now! 😂😂😂

@juliushowlett7247 oh wow! That’s a good one too! 😂👍🏻💜
Wow what a ride I forgot how many great 2600 games there are!!! Great vid scott!
Indeedio! Thanks, my friend!
I didn't even know some of these exist! Good picks and great video sir!
💜 Thank you, Sir!
Aw man, you missed an opportunity! In Alien you said that it's not as good as Ripley's flamethrower, but the flamethrower is in the game! It makes the Aliens switch directions. :)
Yeah, I realized that afterward. And two days later I watched Aliens again… during the eggs & Queen scene, I went D’oh!!!

I’ll mail you some Quaker Oates when they see I had them in a video and they mail me a crate! 😁
@@GAMECLOSET lol, I appreciate that 😉
@@GAMECLOSET 😮
Heck yeah Keystone Kapers! The only good 2600 game

There are lots of good games for the Atari 2600. Most Activision games are great and most I magic games are great too
