What is worth playing on 2600 that isn’t just about playing endlessly for high scores?

>> No.6715439

Most of its library are inferior Arcade ports available on MAME so, no, nope.
Hero 2600 is a cool game though.

Why would you want to play retro single-player games for anything other than getting good scores?

Oh you're a faggot, makes sense now.

Also Yarr's Revenge is insanely clever. Made by the ET developer before he disgraced his career.

Jungle Hunt, Smurfs, Skate Boardin’, Kangaroo, and Raiders of the Lost Ark are all fun little diversions that have proper endings and are not only about getting high scores.

H.E.R.O's great, but it's arguably better played on the 5200.

Adventure, Raiders of the Lost Ark, and Haunted House I guess. Not much else on the 2600 that's not about getting high scores.

River Raid is pretty fun as is frostbite. I never cared about scores on atari, just played until bored and switched games.

Atari is arguably best for multiplayer. Combat, Warlords are a few fun ones. Combat can be a blast, brings out the competitive nature in older folks.

Better to be a zoomer who plays these ancient games than to be a zoomer who plays Overwatch in a sad attempt to become an esports star.

Ive spent a month going through a2600 library, and to be honest you should only bother if you have nostalgia for a2600. i wouldnt rate any of a2600 games above 5.5/10.
