[Software] These are the most expensive Atari 2600 cartridges in history

[Dean Ambrose™]

Atari is undoubtedly the pioneer company when it comes to creating desktop consoles, since without it we would not have many of the ones we have today, and the Atari 2600 was its first great magnum opus, with its incredible catalog of games.

That we have today everything we have in the world of video games is owed above all to the Atari 2600, which was one of the first desktop consoles to hit the market. Having this status, some of the games that came out for this medium have prices that would make any collector cry, since they have completely exorbitant prices.

The most expensive thing about Atari 2600
To celebrate the release of the new Plus version of the Atari 2600, today we bring you this list of the five most expensive games that came out for the original console. These are:

5. Condor Attack
This title was nothing more than one of those classic Martian killers in which we would have to exterminate every living creature that got in our way, only changing the aliens for some pixels that we assumed were condors. If you want a little video game history in your collection you will only have to spend $2,950.

4. X-Man
When you have been dedicating yourself to the world of video games for a while, you find games as peculiar as this X-Man. Without going into too much detail, the premise is a man searching a maze for a woman, and we can read that far. If you like rarities, take advantage now that it's cheap, only $3,050.

3. Malagai
Since this console is already a few years old, the games it featured were quite simple both graphically and in terms of playability. Malagai was a kind of Pac-Man clone in which we would have to make our way through a series of mazes while fleeing from enemies that are chasing us. Its current price is $3,113.

2. Pepsi Invaders
This game has a curious history, since it was commissioned by Coca Cola to Atari. This is a mockery of Pepsi. It's a Space Invaders in which the Martians have the Pepsi logo and you have to kill them. As expected, very few copies were made, so if you want it you will need the meager sum of $5,000.

1. The Music Machine

As king of the Atari 2600 we have The Music Machine, this title that, if you ask us, seems to be quite boring. We will play children who must catch a series of objects that come out of the music machine before they fall to the ground. We won't lie to you if we tell you that it doesn't sound too exciting. Of course, it is really expensive, currently selling for $5,250.
