Why do you choose the Atari 2600 console over clones and emulators or vice versa?

Do you feel like the Atari 2600 games should only be played like Bushnell and Dabeny meant them to be played?

Or... Do you enjoy the thrill of playing games with graphics so basic, they make Minecraft look like a Pixar film? Is it the charming simplicity of titles like "Pong" and "Combat"!

Here is a list of ALL Atari games ever made! Is in excel.

I am using it to guide me in my plan to try to create a complete collection of all games out here!
How would you use it?

If you have google docs, you can revise it if you see anything that needs changing.

Atari on!

:atari: To keep an Atari 2600 original or modify it comes down to personal preference. Many prioritize authenticity and collectability, while others may value modern conveniences and enhanced features.

Which do you prefer? Are you a purist who likes to keep your vintage console original, or do you prefer to modify it to suit your modern gaming needs?

It includes a ping-pong console that I didn't see at first! Good deal!

This link for the Atari Museum website provides information and an image related to a prototype version of the Atari 2600 game console that I never saw. The page provides a fascinating glimpse into the early development of the Atari 2600 and the changes that were made to the console before it was released to the public.
