These items wear uncovered in 1996
when Atari went out of business.

These wear part of a small cache of unused
boxes found in the Art Dept. when they
were cleaning out the building.

This box is literally straight from the
printer and have never been unfolded to put
the game in.




HISTORY OF ATARI 2800:
-------------------------------------

The Atari 2600 was not released in JAPAN, instead it went
by the name Atari 2800 and was not very popular mainly because within
a few months the FAMICOM / NES was released and the Japanese
consumers decided to go with that system instead, the 2800 was discontinued
shortly after.
