nosweargamer Posted March 20, 2015 Report Share Posted March 20, 2015 This is one of my favorites: How to find the shark in RS Volleyball for the 2600 (A system, which like the 7800, did not have a lot of Easter Eggs).

Yo-Yo Posted March 20, 2015 Report Share Posted March 20, 2015 That's cool. I remember this being one of Bob Polaro's games. I never knew this existed, thanks for sharing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nosweargamer Posted March 21, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 21, 2015 I've seen that before.......but I just never realized that was considered an "Easter Egg"...LOL The term Easter Egg has no single definition as it can refer to even cheats by some. But this one was actually hidden to me for years since my games never went long enough to see the shark. I'm guessing there are many other like me. It's one of the few Easter Eggs that only require time The No Swear Gamer on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UChtJuo040EOCTVziObIgVcg Host of The Atari 7800 Game by Game Podcast on iTunes, Stitcher and YouTube Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fire_In_The_Valley Posted March 22, 2015 Report Share Posted March 22, 2015 What an awesome find, I never heard about this one. It's pretty cool to see an Atari game that took into account sunrise/sunset and would even have a shark in the ocean. That seems very Nintendo-ish of them to do. I wonder how many people even know about this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's one of the few Easter Eggs that only require time I remember (back in the day) wanting to see what would happen to the sun if you kept playing, so that was how I found the shark.
