Description

Long before Xbox and Playstation, Atari home game console was huge back in the late '70s and early '80s. Now Atari, and retro-gaming in general, are big again. The Atari Party is the next best thing to having been there in the Reagan era. Classic games like Asteroids, Pitfall!, Pac-Man, and Space Invaders will be available along with some obscure titles. There will even be some stand up old-school arcade games available for folks. Early Atari employees Al Alcorn and Dan Kramer are this year's guest speakers, commenting on the development of early games like Pong and how the game controller evolved. (Amulya Datla)
