TRON 2600
Sun, Aug 17th, 2008
Known as T.R.O.N. Deadly Discs and Adventures of T.R.O.N. it came as a two-pack of games based on Disney’s futuristic movie TRON. Made by Mattel Electronics, for your Atari 2600, these games were games of futility. The movie was really popular in the 1980’s, so game makers wanted to take advantage of it, but these games were tricky to play and weren’t all that fun. The really neat thing about it was that it came with the neardtastically cool MNetwork Tron Joystick! The translucent blue plastic was just like its arcade counterpart and it’s still highly sought after by collectors because it is something which inspires awe.
This awesome MCP is taking over another computer. Only this time, it’s your Atari 2600! Only you can stop him!

The arcade version of Tron was so freakin’ awesome. There was a rollerrink in the area that had it. Light Cycles was tough but so great. I always wanted that one in my house beside the Star Wars Arcade and Crystal Castles.

The arcade version of Tron is quite fun. I also enjoy Crystal Castles. I had it for my Atari 2600.
