What do you think ?

I think like many Atari 2600 games it was a terrific concept for a game and an ambitious project to attempt on the 2600. Once again though Atari was in a situation where they should have released a new generation video game system by that point, and it was just too much to do with so little. Even with the addition of the Touch Pad. Had Star Raiders been playable with 2 buttons and a D-Pad, and some text on screen and NES-like graphics, it could have been way better.

It's horrible!  I know the CV could do so much better than this.  WTH!  The horribleness makes me love it even more, though. 
 

You finally found CV One on One! I remembered you had been looking for that one forever. Now you can play inbred Sneetches basketball!

Good luck 

Rick wins round two and the battle! Good game!

I’m going to try for that patch. This is a great game. However I know I’m going to feel this tomorrow.

You have a pluscart? Cool!
My sisters copy of Ocarina of Time came in at the game store so we picked it up on our road trip. And I saw this and had to pick it up.

Glad the Gemstick works. Don’t go on and break it with Decathlon now!
Do you want to do a 2 player battle with this game?

Awesome stuff, RickR!  That Gemstick looks pretty neat.  The 2600 was never short on joystick options, was it?

The ragtime giant snake is hilarious! 

Here's an oldie that I'll never get tired of.  A dude that sneezes into his trombone.
 
 
 

This will lighten the mood for us both. Unless you’re afraid of snakes.
 

I’m sorry about your dad, @RickR. I’m certain he’s looking down on you as well. The deceased live on in our memories and the stories we share about them.

It's good to remember.  Grandfather is looking down on you I'm sure. 
Today is the 4 yr anniversary of my father's death. A hard day. 

Yes, and that has been tripping me up a little bit! But there are now some dots at the top of the screen you can click to edit and delete, so no biggie.
A small price to pay for the sleek new design. Thanks, Justin!

I'm a huge fan of pineapple on pizza. 

I won't eat pizza any other way.  Pepperoni and Pineapple on mine any day.  They really go great together.  Domino's Hawaiian Pizza?  The bomb.

Hell yeah they do!

Enjoy!

You should just dub in some Marlin Perkins "Wild Kingdom" narration on your existing episode 2.
 

Awesome!
 

Well, if you want me to keep on talking about it I will!
So far I have collected 91 Atari 2600 cartridges. I'd say around 50 of those didn't cost me anything (so either they came with the Atari or were gifts for birthday, Christmas, no reason), even more if you count the ones I got with my $5 discount. Most of the remaining 41-odd games were dirt cheap. About $1-5. Only two were above five bucks: Tunnel Runner and Mario Brothers. Both worth it in my opinion.
It may sound like I'm foolish with my money, but really I'm not THAT bad. A lot of that which I spent on those games was Christmas/birthday money, and I feel it was worth it. With my job now, I save 80% of my earnings for college and other future expenses and I save the other 20% for HDN-things like Atari. For every game I buy, I stop and think, "is it worth it?" That's why I don't have Math Gran Prix or Sprintmaster. I'm only getting the things I want (and if the price is decent).
The rarest game I have for my VCS (according to the AA rarity guide) is Private Eye. I kind of hate that game. Anyways, I'm not sure how accurate that is. I've seen a lot more Private Eyes out in the wild than Tunnel Runner. The only Tunnel Runner I've seen in the wild is the one I bought, and I don't think that should be the same rarity as Mario Brothers, which the game store has about 15 copies of at all times. 
On the "professional" side of things, my 7800 now has 25 games under its belt. However, I only bought 3 of them myself. PPII came with the system, I got One on One with my discount, and the game store just gave me Karateka. The only games I got were from chas10e: Food Fight, Xevious, and Galaga. The other 19 games were gifts. 18 of them were from cjherr, which was very nice of him. And one of the games, a homebrew, was from Young! Thank you guys!
The 7800 is also the home of my first ever duplicates for a home console. Cjherr also sent me two Xeviouses, PPII, and another Galaga. I want to give them away but I haven't been able to. The only one I have successfully given away was the PPII.
The rarest 7800 game I (according to the guide on AA) is Rampage, scoring a 5 just like Private Eye. HOWEVER, the most valuable 7800 game I have is Commando. It's a great game, and I'd highly recommend it if if wasn't, like, $70.

It's incredible how easy it can be to collect the old stuff if one sets their mind to it.  Very good job. 
Speaking for myself only, I find it really nice to see others starting the journey.  I'm one of those oldsters that rarely finds anything "new" to buy.  Homebrews are a good way to keep going.  But then again, I'd rather have fun playing old favorites.  Keep on telling us about it.  I find it fun to talk to you about it. 
 

Awesome retrospective, Harry! It’s amazing how much you accomplished in one year. 

I’ve been trying to get it since day one, in fact! 
Wait a minute... today’s day one! I need to make a status update or something!
