Kevin Bunch
Atari's Video Computer System is one of the most significant game consoles in the history of the medium, but much of the history behind its creation, its place on the market, and its games has been relegated to dusty memories, legal papers, and trade industry coverage. Historian Kevin Bunch has worked to reconstruct and contextualize the early history of Atari's woodgrain winner, covering its development, the history behind each game published in its first two years, and the tales of its contemporary competitors, too.
The tales of 1970s Atari are only a page turn away!
