Our first console when I was kid (something that we played til our fingers hurt) came in the way of Atari. Sure, the graphics were not that cimematic, the sound composed mainly of pings and bleeps but, darn it! It sure as hell made a good run during its short time at the top. We played Space Invaders, Yar's Revenge, Joust (my favorite), Berserk, Haunted House and a lot others. It only got better when Atari got out to be replaced by the immortal NES.
