ctrl-alt-rees | The Atari Museum's Rarest & Coolest Exhibits @ctrlaltrees | Uploaded June 2023 | Updated October 2024, 10 minutes ago.
The Atari Museum is a collection of rare Atari history - including prototypes, schematics, code, paperwork and other fascinating historical oddities and one-offs relating to Atari's 50+ year history of retro gaming and retro computing. So join me as I tell the story of how this valuable website - run by the late, great Curt Vendel - has been restored and preserved, and explore some of the treasures within.
Also hear some of the stories from behind the scenes at Cyan Engineering - Allan Alcorn, Ron Miller, Nolan Bushnell, Owen Rubin and more!
