Atari Video Game



I was at junior high school when my father bought me a big silver box; it was an Atari 2600 Jr video game console. I was surprised because it was not my birthday.
I opened the box and found the slim modern design game console, with two easy grip joysticks, and Centipede Game Cartridge bonus.



The Centipede game is a simple game, you just shoot the centipede which is running down from left to right side of screen, and if you cannot shoot all body part of that centipede you will be lost, because the rest of body part will hit you.
It was simple but very entertaining game in that age.

I save this Atari game console somewhere in my house, I believe it is still work. I will search it someday and play again with this old machine.
