Review: One of Atari's rarer systems. It never really made it beyond the USA, and is very hard to find in Europe. This rarity was due to the crash, and was only released for a mere 2 years. It was capable to display 256 colours and had, a good 16Kb of RAM which made it a very powerful piece of hardware, capable to rival the arcade machines of this time. An interesting part are the joysticks, which have a analog stick, a numberpad (like the Intellivision) with two action buttons. But as clever the joysticks may seem to be on first sight - the uncomfortable they become when playing. Conclusion This was a solid system that kept up with competitors at the time, but due to its predecessor and the crash it was never going to suceed.   Rating
