Erin, thanks for checking out the Recharged games ... really enjoy your take on gameplay. We will tell the team you are expecting a Crystal Castles: Recharged
ATARI…on the 39th Challenge Level for Centipede: Recharged VCS-800 version(exclusive content) there aren’t enough Scorpions to destroy to complete the level. I have finished all of them except this one level that has either the Scorpion count meter too high or the number of Scorpions on the level too low. I thought I needed to have zero/nothing on the screen…which I accomplished multiple times playing for over an hour. Then I realized what was making the meter increase…
@@F1JV Thank you for letting us know this is a persistent issue. We're aware some people has been having problems with it, and will have this fixed soon enough.
@@atari …great…thank you for responding and looking into this matter. I love all the ATARI Recharged games and can’t wait for Breakout: Recharged + any others that are in the plans.
It is very hard to capture an old school feel while making it sound modern without ruining the actual feel of it. And every Recharged soundtrack I've heard to this day sound great. Very well done.
I absolutely love the recharged series of atari games. Just wish there was an option for the standard 3 lives per game. It would be amazing if they released a recharged version of star wars but I wouldn't hold my breath on that one.
I love the aesthetic of these games. It's like what someone from the 80s might come up with if you asked them what video games would look like in the future.
My only real complaint about these games are the controls. I’m used to playing Centipede with a trackball. Black Widow with twin sticks. I have a custom built table top arcade cabinet with all these controls. Would like to play these games with the original controls which are far more fun to play with.
who agrees that for the atari vcs 2 atari should have at least a few new atari vcs 2 exclusive launch games like a new centipede a new missile command a new asteroids for examples because i do
These redone games look beautiful and I hope Atari does more, especially Berserk & Dark Cavern. I'm also happy to hear Erin say Lightning bugs instead of fireflies 😊
Black widow should have an end level enemy that once you defeat you rap them up like real spiders. Than you can get specific things from sucking their innered out.
Major Havoc, Star Raiders, Crystal Castles, Breakout, & Tempest would all be GREAT games that could get the Atari Recharged treatment! I would also like to see remakes or re-imagenings of games like Xenophoboa, Smash TV & Gauntlet on modern consoles.
Crystal Castles is an excellent choice for a makeover like these games! I remember playing that game as a kid and for some reason it stuck with me because it seemed so unique. I played again eventually when I was older and wasn't as impressed lol but I'd still love to see it get remastered like the games in your video!
I only found out about Crystal Castles recently because my local game store had it in box for 8 dollars. Now I think it is one of the best games I have played for atari.
Hi Erin I have the Atari 50 anniversary bundle , the version of centipede is the classic one, not the recharge one I have went into game setting but can't figure out how to disable 2 player, playing it on the switch , would be able to figure it out, thanks for response.
Centipede is my favorite of these. But Id def do the PC version and use a trackball. I was thinking about Millipede. Like how they could vary it up from Centipede. Here’s hoping they do it.
I was actually really surprisingly I enjoying playing the Atari Recharged series of games like Black Widow, Centipede, Missile Command and haven't played yet Asteroids on my Nintendo Switch.
Even though it's a sponsored video, thanks for the heads up. I totally played the originals in the arcade and on the 2600. I'm down for a "recharged" version. I usually know what games are coming out, but i missed these. Added them to my Steam wishlist.
Erin you should totally cover arcade reboot games Frogger He's Back on PS1 Asteroids Pong Space invaders Etc and see how they stack up to the original and if they are worthy reboot
I've never really been big into the score attack thing, though I did really like Millipede on the NES for its wild palettes; in that spirit, I do really like the neon vector look here. The music from this sounds great; reminds me of a Shantae game.
@@ErinPlays The first one on Game Boy Color can be stupidly expensive, if it's no longer on any of Nintendo's digital services (my lady got it through something like that for her 3DS), and it's a little janky, but I don't remember if that one's vital to the story, since it's been a while. The rest are relatively cheap and easily available, though; I got the rest pretty cheap at GOG. They are a bit less linear than the stuff you might usually be into, but they're fairly structured, so that might not be a dealbreaker for you.
I was definitely interested in checking out the asteroids recharged, it looked pretty cool as an update but also keeping the retro vector look! not familliar with black widow but I'm at least curious to play centipede recharged. cool to see that these support score leaderboards, definitely a great feature to include for these arcade throwbacks!
I think it would be interesting to see space invaders & E.T get the recharged treatment. Why would I want E.T to get the recharged treatment ? Simple because that game was branded as the worst video game of all time so it would be nice to see if it could have some kind of improvement done to it.
I have been enjoying the recharged series on the switch! However, black widow did leave me wanting a "classic mode" since the original arcade hasn't really been easily available (that I know of anyway)
Every time I see your Vectrex I feel an overwhelming surge of jealousy. God that is a thing of beauty. This is awesome. Goes to show the genius of these games considering these came out in the 70s and early 80s with the vast limitations they made the gameplay timeless. As for games I'd add to this Yars Revenge immediately jumps to mind. If I could get my wish, but with licensing I don't see it happening, Star Wars Arcade!
So... $10 for Asteroids... it is rather underwhelming. The fire rate doesn't seem to change with how fast you press the fire button. Old Asteroids did that. Not as satisfying as I had hoped. $10 down the drain. Or 40 plays of OG Asteroids at a quarter a pop.
Erin, thanks for checking out the Recharged games ... really enjoy your take on gameplay. We will tell the team you are expecting a Crystal Castles: Recharged
Thanks so much! And that would be awesome 😮

what about a Warlords Recharged , Rampart, Tempest , Pole Position, 720 , Roadblasters... etc 😁 that would be so cool
@@F1JV Thank you for letting us know this is a persistent issue. We're aware some people has been having problems with it, and will have this fixed soon enough.

Thank you so much Erin! "Doesn't get old" is the best compliment a video game composer can get :)
You're very welcome! And thanks so much for watching my video :D
@@ErinPlays No prob. Glad you're enjoying the games and tunes!
It is very hard to capture an old school feel while making it sound modern without ruining the actual feel of it. And every Recharged soundtrack I've heard to this day sound great. Very well done.
The Recharged series has been stellar so far. I'm looking forward to Breakout in Q1 2022 and other installments.

Vectrex, spent a night in grade 3 flipping over level 99 with that Asteroids clone. Awesome vector screen and controller.
Moon Patrol & Joust
Crystal Castles and Tempest recharged!
Yars Revenge Recharged and Battle Zone
Yar's Revenge was my favorite Atari game as a kid. I'd love to see a recharged version of that.
You might get your wish ...
Yar's Revenge and Crystal Castles are some of my favorite Atari games as a kid. I'm looking forward to playing these. Awesome video!🕹️👍

I have a custom built table top arcade cabinet with all these controls. Would like to play these games with the original controls which are far more fun to play with.
I love all of these so far
I love playing Black Widow on my Atgames legends Ultimate arcade cabinet! I can’t wait to try the new version of games!!
Thank you so much Erin, this is so exciting! 🙆♀️
The breakout is my favorite right now. It’s awesome to breath some new life and introduce them to new people!
who agrees that for the atari vcs 2 atari should have at least a few new atari vcs 2 exclusive launch games like a new centipede a new missile command a new asteroids for examples because i do
Breakout recharged and Asteroids recharged are my favs. Black Widow recharged is nice too.
These redone games look beautiful and I hope Atari does more, especially Berserk & Dark Cavern.
I'm also happy to hear Erin say Lightning bugs instead of fireflies 😊
Great job!! New to the channel but really enjoying all your hard work to these videos. Thanks
“I hope there’s no bugs on my toast.”🤣
That "Centipede" music sounds like a remix of the classic Centipede Atari 2600 commercial.
Pitfall recharged. Make. It. Happen.
Would love to see Dig Dug recharged! How deep could they go?
Not gonna happen likely because Dig Dug is a Namco game so it would be a licensing issue.
the original Black Widow was one of my favorite Arcade Games back in the day, perfect twin stick shooter 🕹🕹🤘🤘
Amazing video Erin! Keep up the good work!
Black widow should have an end level enemy that once you defeat you rap them up like real spiders. Than you can get specific things from sucking their innered out.

nice review!!! asteroids looks fun
Cool! I have a VCS! I'll have to buy and try these! Thanks Erin!
Crystal Castles and Breakout are ones I'd like to see get Recharged. I'd like to see a Paperboy Recharged too.
Paperboy! yes, oh yes.
Merry Christmas Erin plays my best friend.💖🎅🤶🔔🌹😘👍🌟

I think Indy 500 for Atari would make a good recharge game
Yars recharged is my favorite so far! Hours of fun!
Hi Erin I have the Atari 50 anniversary bundle , the version of centipede is the classic one, not the recharge one I have went into game setting but can't figure out how to disable 2 player, playing it on the switch , would be able to figure it out, thanks for response.
I don't have the Atari 50 bundle but I'll probably get it soon. So yeah sorry I'm no help :(
Will you cover the Atari 5200 or 7800?
Oh wow getting into the original game system man that is awesome
Super👍👍👍great games,Merry Christmas Erin 🎄🎄🎄🎄
A favourite Atari game of mine was 'Maze Craze', that would be interesting to see it recharged:) Thanks Erin.
6:04 Oh Dear God. The track ball controllers. Those were the days. I was always dreadful with those controllers. My hands would get sore 🎮🤣😆
There is also a Ps2 Version of Black Widow on a compilation Disc
I gotta get these games. Centipede is my favorite Atari game. I would love to see Millipede and Crystal Castles recharged
Centipede is my favorite of these. But Id def do the PC version and use a trackball. I was thinking about Millipede. Like how they could vary it up from Centipede. Here’s hoping they do it.
@@mikematei Hey Mike. Say hi to AVGN for me
These games are being released free on Epic Games store so if you have a PC you can probably catch some of these still for free.
i would love to see millipede, major havoc, & quantum
Cool video Erin,these look awesome
Great video, Erin! These games look fantastic. I probably be picking up Asteroids for Switch to check out.
You should! And thank you :D
I was actually really surprisingly I enjoying playing the Atari Recharged series of games like Black Widow, Centipede, Missile Command and haven't played yet Asteroids on my Nintendo Switch.
I vote for star raiders I actually got that for Christmas when it came out. Can’t believe they could get that game to work on the 2600
This game turned out great.
Even though it's a sponsored video, thanks for the heads up. I totally played the originals in the arcade and on the 2600. I'm down for a "recharged" version. I usually know what games are coming out, but i missed these. Added them to my Steam wishlist.
i love variations of Asteroids
Great content again Erin - you have a unique style - keep it up!
How many are on the switch. Cart please respond back
Great video...made me pick them all up! I wonder if they'll do a physical collection
Thank you , Erin.
These Atari recharged classics look great! I will have to check them out for me Switch as well. I would love to see Chopper Command recharged.
These games remind of geometry wars and that's a good thing
Geometry Wars is fun!
Erin you should totally cover arcade reboot games
Frogger He's Back on PS1
Asteroids
Pong
Space invaders
Etc and see how they stack up to the original and if they are worthy reboot
What others would I like to see recharged? Gasp....moon patrol, beamrider, kaboom, haunted house, pitfall, keystone kapers etc etc
Moon Patrol would be awesome!
It would be cool if these were on Evercade!
Yar's Revenge!!
YES, Erin time!
Love Megan McDuffie, she's the best
Wow that's a real stretch but ok
Great video !
I've never really been big into the score attack thing, though I did really like Millipede on the NES for its wild palettes; in that spirit, I do really like the neon vector look here. The music from this sounds great; reminds me of a Shantae game.
I still need to give a Shantae game an actual play through.

Will definitely be checking this out for The Switch. Thanks Erin! 🤜🤛
Loved your video Erin 😊 you're my go to UA-camr on these awesome retro games 🕹️📺😊😎👍
Lobby for them to do Battlezone also. That's a must-have title for any Retro-Atari fan like me!
Well,Erin Plays and Atari,I would like to see a recharged version of one of my favorite Atari arcade game,Tempest,because it's really awesome.
Haha you know when a game is hard to control when there's tape around the joystick.
I was definitely interested in checking out the asteroids recharged, it looked pretty cool as an update but also keeping the retro vector look! not familliar with black widow but I'm at least curious to play centipede recharged. cool to see that these support score leaderboards, definitely a great feature to include for these arcade throwbacks!
Thanks for the video ;)
E.T. recharged
This is a good video from Erin Plays and Centipede,Asteroids and Black Widow are three good video games on the Atari
That co-op feature is pretty freaking awesome
There was coop Asteroids on the Atari 7800 btw. Was pretty cool!
@@amuzulo I've played co-op with my kid on space invaders on 2600, but I've never played any other atari system.
I think it would be interesting to see space invaders & E.T get the recharged treatment. Why would I want E.T to get the recharged treatment ? Simple because that game was branded as the worst video game of all time so it would be nice to see if it could have some kind of improvement done to it.
They are all 30% off now.
Great games ... and one of the artists from River City Girls did the Asteroids Soundtrack I Meagan McDuffee I think it is.
Yep! :P
Decathlon, Moon Patrol, Frostbite, Missle Command!
Looks PRETTY GOOD actually, 👍 played all the originals as a young boy
Taz and Pitfall 2...best Atari games
Atari Rules!
Oh cool! Doesn’t Mike have the highest score in Asteroids too? I need to get this. Very cool! 🎮
Yeah, at least he did the other day lol.
Oh man I had Atari deluxe on PlayStation my dad and I played centipedes all the time good times
Missile command.
Thank you!!.. Great video.. 🏆
I have been enjoying the recharged series on the switch! However, black widow did leave me wanting a "classic mode" since the original arcade hasn't really been easily available (that I know of anyway)
No one seems to like Ice-o-metric video game titles. =o (
Warlords would be cool, Missile Command also. Oooo, how about Sprint 8?
Here comes the ice cream bunny hohohoho🤣
Play mega man 2 on gameboy
Every time I see your Vectrex I feel an overwhelming surge of jealousy. God that is a thing of beauty.
This is awesome. Goes to show the genius of these games considering these came out in the 70s and early 80s with the vast limitations they made the gameplay timeless.

No, I haven't. Should I?

I've only played the Asteroids game, and boy, it is pure arcade, as in tough-as-nails and difficult to last more than five minutes before Game Over.
I want Super Pitfall recharged.
I loved playing Black Widow on the Flashback. So much fun 😁😁😁
That super scary spider needs to pay bills to
