It's coming out 31 years ago. IOW, you missed the boat on this one, I think.
And do I sense some anger from censors toward the end? Perhaps the networks didn't like the "Don't watch TV tonight" part of the slogan?

this gave other companies ideas to expand their way of creating game systems. atari was pure genious, inventing the concept and slogin of "don't watch your tv, play it" cause later on, we all play game consoles on our tv.

I had one of those in the mid-80's - I was born in '78 and I remember playing "COMBAT!" on it. I am grateful I got out of video games though by the time I graduated high school .... just too much money and it would drive me bonkers when I couldn't win or negotiate obstacles on a game for Sega Genesis. Atari was cool for me as a kid - I vaguely remember that game called "Pitfall" it was my favorite as a child before I got Nintendo in '88. That old Atari deck has to still be awe-inspiring.
