Title: Atari Video Pinball - Ah... the Memories!
Post by: creatine28 on April 14, 2010, 03:26:58 pm
I was digging through my old computer stuff and found my old Atari Pinball.   I use to love this game, it had pinball and breakout.  I recall we got it a little while after we got Pong.   I think we bought it at Wards.  Oh man that was a long time ago.

Not my picture, but Im not able to take a picture of mine right now.


I noticed that it looks like there were two version of this system around,  the brown one, which I have and a white one.  Anyone know if one is more rare than the other?


Just found some info, looks like the white one was the 2nd release of the system.

I have the white one. It's about as much fun as poking a squirrel with a stick.

Now is the squirrel alive or dead?   ;)
