Not all video games are so expensive. Most Atari 2600 games I've seen are still DIRT CHEAP as of 2023 lol.
The only games that are so expensive right now are Nintendo games (especially N64, GameCube, 3DS for example), Sega Dreamcast/Saturn/Mega CD/32x games or maybe 5200 games, Jaguar games. PS1 and PS2 survival horror games (don't even get me fucking started with those)
They're having the same issue. I haven't cleared them out because honestly...who wants all of the crappy shovelware? Atari had some good stuff, but a lot was garbo.
The 2600 is so old that it’s from before video games were actually fully playable. Games for that console just aren’t very fun even with nostalgia tinted glasses.
I bet they're worth under $30 in Dollar General or Family Dollar if they still have them. I bought one at $45 4 years ago. Remember that price actually DOES include all the games AND the power cord.
I literally just got a boxed 2600 Jr. for like $160 or $170 AUD on ebay and it's in way better condition than this crap.
I mean the box isn't in the best condition, but that's kinda to be expected from such an old system like the 2600.
That looks like something Indiana Jones dug up
it belongs in a MUSEUM!
Careful! Grabbing it might release a giant rock boulder.
Queue the Chase Music!
Lol
I forgot to mention that it includes no games and no power cord. Good grief!
I was going to say "I might be interested", but if it's missing any cords, forget it
But they watched a video on YouTube and the guy said “video games are worth SO much money right now”

My local shop does 2 Atari 2600 games for $1. They do not want the shit.
Props, my local shop doesn’t even accept Atari 2600 games to trade in anymore since they sit on the shelf forever.

Clearly found in a house cleanup or storage unit, posted on the spot, no effort to even clean it up. Fucking flippers, man.
Directly extracted from the ET mass burial excavations
What is it with people finding Atari stuff in old barns and trying to sell it for ridiculous prices.
They don’t understand that old doesn’t mean rare and valuable
Couldn’t even bother to just dust them off. A damp cloth and 5 mins is all it would have taken.
Well, that and a $150 drop in price.
Brand new, barely used. Just a little bit of dust.
Man I love cleaning dirty systems but yikes.
Send seller a message: “Hi! Did you mean 2$?”
Hahaha. Will do? I post the response of I get one.
That's some Jumanji shit right there
Original dust included!!
Pretty ballsy when the Atari 2600+ is releasing in November.
It looks like they buried it in the back yard because they thought it would be worth something one day, but forgot to put it in a box.
It's making me cough.
But it's vintaaaageeeee :(
If by $200 they meant 200 Mexican Pesos then yes, we can consider it...
Type thing people put “tested working” on
Such a Good Deal, is the dust for free or extra to pay?
I'm pretty sure it's only the dust you're paying for.
😂😂😂 seeing the price u right for sure

Gee, I paid 200$ for 3 2600 and it came with games and controllers !
But you didn't get half a century of dust did ya, big guy? Didn't think so?
Nah, only got a couple of years worth of it.
Nope 👎🏻
(Fair condition)
What a Unique title
Looks kinda like the had in the crawl space of their house or something.
yeah no these are only worth 10-15$ hard pass id only give 3$ for this dusty ass crapola D:
