    Just For The Record
    This is the only 2600 that I'm going to destroy.
    The Atari 2600 was the very first video game console that I ever played in my life. IMO, the Atari 2600 still holds up as a classic game console with many of the games still fun to play to this day. Having said that, I couldn't refrain from sacrificing one console and a few games to have a little destructive fun. I hope you don't take this video to seriously. But if you must, get your dislikes and hate comments out of the way.

    Next time make a fake Air Raid cartridge, and title the video Destruction of Atari 2600 and Air Raid. Say you tried Air Raid and it is the shittiest game and you've never even heard of it before, say it wasn't worth the 0.25 you paid for it in a thrift shop, destroy it and watch the people go wild lol. Incase you don't know Air Raid for Atari 2600 is worth over $30,000

    • @MegaMudokon

    • @bluebull399
      @bluebull399 Před 7 lety

      Stop talking rubbish these games aren't worth anything, I brought a second hand atari 2600 in the 90's for only £50 and it had nearly 100 games catridges including air raid. It's been sitting up in my loft ever since.

    • @whattheheck1000
      @whattheheck1000 Před 5 lety +1

      There were a lot of video games with pretty similar titles to Air Raid, like "Air Raiders" by Mattel and "River Raid" by Activision. Air Raid by Men-A-Vision is worth a lot of money. I don't think it deserves to be worth more than a brand new fully loaded Honda Accord but it is rare and in a perfectly fair world would still be worth thousands.
      In the 90's they might not have known and/or Air Raid by Men-A-Vision may have been worth a lot less than it is now.

      Streamlined Steamroller I know. I actually dragged all of the recording equipment outside in an attempt to record the game footage as it was run over. The problem was I forgot to bring the AV cable for my portable DVD player which I planed on using to monitor the recording. I could not find a substitute cable to use so I decided to go ahead and record it blindly hoping that the game would fire up correctly. Sure enough, the game cartridge was not making good contact into the 2600 and it didn't fire up.
