Jakks Pacific TV Games (2002)
For decades, the Atari 2600's black
joystick has symbolized the raw spirit of early console video gaming.
How fitting, then, that the joystick itself evolved into an entire
video game console in 2004, when a small toy company called Jakks Pacific
launched the phenomenally successful TV Games line. The TV Games
controller/game console hooks directly to standard inputs on a
television and runs off batteries. Atari TV Games was the first version,
bundling ten of the most popular classic Atari games from the
1980s--Pong, Asteroids, Breakout, and more--in a controller that looked
just like the original Atari VCS joystick.
