I got it when I was in a consignment store with dsheinem. I was wishy washy about paying ten bucks for it but he talked me into it and I don't regret it one bit. It's probably in my top five games on the 2600 now, if not my top 3. It's brilliant.

A nice round of games. Love Laser Blast and Chopper Command, have both 2600 carts. Laser Blast really needs good hits on the joystick direction, a 2600 EPYX stick works well. The Anthology route on the newer consoles do have one benefit, an unmodded Arcade Stick option since most the emulated games in addition to the analog stick also use the DPad.
