5.2

VideoChums

Includes a few fantastic Atari 7800 games that are enjoyable rarities
It's fun to see how Atari adapted their classic arcade games to console

Besides the Atari 7800 games, the game selection is quite subpar and common
Missing the far superior arcade versions
Games could use better instructions
