ATARI Hardware

The Atari hardware represents a crucial part of the history of video games and personal computing. From the legendary Atari 2600 (VCS) of the late 70s, which revolutionized the concept of cartridge-based consoles, to the ambitious Atari Jaguar of 1993, Atari has constantly sought to innovate. The range also includes consoles such as the Atari 5200, which despite its technical advances, suffered from its incompatibility with the games of its predecessor. On the computer side, the Atari 400 and 800 of 1979 marked Atari's entry into the world of personal computing, merging console game technologies with more advanced functionalities. This collection of 56 pieces of Atari hardware testifies to the technological evolution and challenges faced by this pioneering brand, which has shaped the video game industry as we know it today.
