Under 50$... wow , nice

OMG, That's too funny. I catually remember that commercial. Nice little jaunt down memory lane.

Ah the quality Atari joysticks....they just don't make them like that anymore. Thank God.

I had stopped gaming when Atari did this rerelease of the 2600 in the mid 80's and it got me back into gaming again. $50 for the Atari and about $5 for the games at Kay Bee Toys. I still had games from my original 2600 (It was long deceased) from about 4-5 years before and I ended up with about 30 or 40 before I bought the NES and moved on. I still fondly remember my 2600 and I still hate those cheap ass joysticks.

Oh that was good for nostalgia...and laughs. Thank you.

Cool I've never seen that commercial before (it was before my time) but it was pretty funny!

I like how they say "Yessirrrreeeeee!!" haha! Love these old school commercials, reminds me of that zelda one where the guy says "Get some!" Unfortunately I never owned an "A-Ta-Ri."

The scary this is I remember most of the words.

Still have my Atari hooked up, although I don't play it a ton.

Damn, remember the commercial and found myself singing along. Joust was the best!

Make me wonder sometimes why I sold that Intellivision2 I had... then I remember what that guy paid for it and smile ear to ear.

You guys must have gotten some bad sticks.

I beat the hell out of my 2600 joysticks and they just kept on going. Personally, I would rather have one of those joysticks over a gamepad any day of the week.

I too have a 2600 hooked up to my TV, along with a Jaguar, NES, PS2, and Odyessey 2 (which has died...argh....it used to work...gotta dig out the multi-meter...)

The joysticks I had never lasted on my Atari. I remember the outside always tearing along the rings and coming off.

I remember that commercial pissing me off cuz I had the old wood-grain 2600 and paid alot for the games and then the prices plummet, but by then I was into other things.

There is a whole collection of commercials here:

I loved Star Raiders. Thats my all time favorite 2600 game, but I didn't remember the commercial.
