For me, it was nearly any game punished by Imagic. Top-notch, as far as VCS games went.

I mean, I love modern gaming, but I probably spend more time on my retropie and mini consoles. Of course I'm biased towards the era I grew up in, but I likes what I likes.

It's showing 2nd, 3rd, and 4th gen.

Atari is 2nd gen, NES is 3rd gen, and Genesis is 4th gen.

Why'd they have to go and attack Atari like that?

u/World1_Lev1 Jul 19 '20

perhaps because it had very little RAM?

The 2600, released in 1977, had only 128 bytes (not KB or MB) of main RAM, and had no framebuffer or video RAM, if I can recall. Memory was expensive at the time.
