Atari 2600 Arcade Shooter Cartridge Resurfaces From 1984

[Cyber kNight]

Retro games are making a resurgence with gamers who either
want to revisit the games of their childhood or relive the
old arcade games that paved the way to what gaming has
become today.

One of the pioneers in arcade and video games was Atari.
However, in 1984, following its role in the so-called "video
game crash of 1983″ (known as the "Atari Shock" in Japan),
Atari Inc. was split.

But the fall of Atari left behind many unpublished,
unfinished and canceled games, which had many wondering what
exactly was hidden away in its vaults.

One of those games will now be unveiled on July 18 and 19 at
the annual Classic Arcade Games Show at California Extreme
2015.

Originally a popular arcade game, Xevious for the Atari 2600
is one of the many titles thought lost and unfinished in the
crash of the video game market. The Digital Game Museum will
present the game from a cartridge, which holds a version of
the game far more complete and playable than anyone had
imagined. According to reports, previous prototypes of the
game lacked elements such as sound and titles.
