Hundreds of Atari 2600 Cartridges

Atari 2600

Searching for an old Atari 2600 cartridge scan? When I put together the Atari 2600 cartridge wallpaper, I used this web site as my source.  AtariAge.com has a ton of old Atari game cartridge, boxes and more all scanned into their archives.

While most kids my age were playing on the original NES, at the time I was having a fun time with a lot of these classic Atari 2600 games.  Also, some of the art on them are amazing.  They almost have complete painted portraits on the cartridge, and you just don’t see that type of craftsmanship on modern game boxes these days.

So if you are looking to take a trip down video game memory lane, be sure to head on over to AtariAge.com.

Final Fight – the Movie Trailer?

The Final Fight game series was always my favorite beat-em up game from my childhood.  Who doesn’t want to grow up thinking that whole cooked chickens are stored in oil drums for some odd reason?  With that said, I think the Final Fight story would make for an excellent movie.  To my surprise, there might be one in the works:

Having been fully entertained by the There Will be Brawl web series, I have high hopes that the production company behind this Final Fight trailer will be able to pull something together.  Could they really do any worse than some of the video game to movie adaptation there have been thus far?
