    Old enough to remember playing these. Activision had the best programmers, they knew how to get the most out of that meager hardware. Pitfall II, Hero, Dolphin, River Raid, they were great games for the time.

    As a kid, I would play 2600 games on my 7800.
    The Activision ones were my favorite of the 2600 games.
    This is what I owned:
    Pitfall
    Kaboom (inherited from a neighbors plus paddle controllers)
    Keystone Kapers
    Commando (Activision did the 2600 port--I wanted the 7800 one, but couldn’t afford it, so I grabbed this one from the bargain bin).
    Ice Hockey.
    I have since played all of the others on various retro gaming devices. I would have loved River Raid and H.E.R.O. back in the day.

    Out of all of the retro flashback systems that I have, the one I've played the most has been the Atari Flashback 8 Gold: Activision Edition.
    There's just something compelling in the graphics, game play and sentiment that keeps it especially enjoyable after so many years.

    Would have been nice to have titles attached to each game, so that some of the less-than-obvious ones could be possibly looked into further by viewers.

Just a thing, if you permit me, it was better if someone who actually knows how to play the games , played.... Even with a little test before recording would help on this... And the game's names on screen would help so many people that don't know their names. Thanks....

    Freeway had a prototype with the chicken being splattered if hit. I wonder if Barnstorming had a similar prototype where the bird did not bounce off the propeller?

      Activision purchased Imagic after they went bankrupt, so own the rights to all their games.
