Episode 137 :Four Atari 2600 Games!

We say we cover games from the start of home consoles on, but we haven't really done anything pre-NES... until now! We're taking a look at 4 games from the Atari VCS library to talk about why these games may or may not be worth trying-- and in some cases we finally figure out what they were trying to do for the first time since playing them as kids.

We also take a bunch of listener questions about emotional video game memories, Kart racers we wish were made, the upcoming Vita/PS3 shop removal, and... Dragula.

Want to grab your one-button joystick and get right to the games? Start at the 9:40 mark!
