We are going to separate into breakout groups of five people, after 8 min. each group will present what they discussed in the main group.
llewelly@futurebird the group version of breakout never lived up to the promise of the one person arcade game
David RolfeWhat about “warlords” for the 2600, that’s 4 person breakout and is still fun!
@Dorolfe @futurebird I confess I've never played it, nor owned a 2600
@llewelly
If you see one at a stoop/garage sale with warlords and paddles (the “dial” controllers) it’s a good time. :p

Yes, this is the one this is the jam.
The other 2600 was named after the 2600 Hz tone that a blue box makes to signal the phone system to connect the following dtmf tones as a long distance call. Phreaking. 🤓😎😁

Thanks for this cool history of the game!
