While Mario Kart dominates the current racing scene as it relates to video games it owes its heritage to this incredibly simple and fun game. Indy 500 was one of the original nine games released in 1977 by Atari and was the only official release to ever use the Driving Paddles. Multiple tracks and varying surface conditions for racing really made this a marvel at the time. Plus, it remains one the THE best two-player games on the Atari 2600. The misconception about the games for the 2600 is that because they are simple and graphically challenged that they are not fun. The opposite is true. Due to the limited graphics it was the actual gameplay that had depth. Don't get me wrong, there are lots of stinkers out there for the 2600, but the reward is finding the ones that are true gems.....and of these there are also many, including Indy 500. Should you want more variety from this game you can purchase Indy 500 XE from AtariAge which has different tracks.Read full review

I like the vintage game Atari collectable. I love that I can find rare vintage gaming collectables here on e-bay. What I dislike would be the fear of the unknown when sending money to someone before the item arrives. I believe that people in general would post more pictures if it was cheaper, that way less buyers would not be dissapointed if they had a better idea of the product. I decided to buy this product because I could not find it anywhere else and its a collectable I'm interested in.
item is as described. prompt shipping, very pleased

Wow , talk about a great Atari game from the past. I still own this and every once in a while we haul out the old 2600 and start playing. i think it is funny how back in the day i could play these games for hours upon hours but now they get boring in about 10 minutes.
i love playing this game i grew up playing indy 500 game i can never get tired of playing it it is defferntly a classic all time great i love classic games.
