Also worth mentioning, almost all of the games are available from the start, the only ones that need to be unlocked are Basic Math, Breakout, Combat Two, Gravitar, and Race 500, all for the 2600. Club Drive is a very early 3D polygon game (think Star Fox) and involves a kind of casual, open-world driving. How they can make a simple game like Sky Diver maddeningly difficult to play, I don't know, but the one time I actually got the diver on the landing pad, I got 0 points.First off, the hacks should never have been included, especially since the original games are included as well!

So many memories with the 2600, I think about those games and I’m back sitting on the floor in friends’ and family members’ living rooms.
