Annette and I went over to her parents house last night to return the Shop-Vac, but of course we had an ulterior motive...raid thier stash of 2600 games. We already had a few over here, but I wanted to see what else they had, and well, they had quite a few. Among the bounty claimed:
3-D Tic-Tac-Toe
Adventure
Air-Sea Battle
Astroblast
Blackjack [Green Text Label]
Blackjack [Yellow Text Label]
Canyon Bomber
Circus Atari
Combat [x2]
Dark Cavern
Football
Hangman [Text Label]
Hangman [Picture Label]
Human Cannonball
Indy 500
Indy 500 ["11" Text Label]
Laser Blast
Math Grand Prix
Minature Golf
Missle Command
Pele's Soccer
Q-Bert
Sky Diver
Solar Fox
Space Invaders
Space War
Star Raiders
Summer Games
Surround
Surround ["41" Text Label]
Video Checkers
Video Olympics
Warlords [x2]
Best find here is the Summer Games cart, along w/ a few of the rarer numbered text label ones. And no crappy E.T. carts!! Of course this just means now I have even more dupes and more to get rid of come our spring cleaning marathon. That, and less space to store shit.

We should get an expedition out to Los Alamos sometime to raid that great stash under concrete. ;)
Well, I live in Los Alamos, so you guys can hang out at my place and play with the arcade machine... but the Atari stash is hours from here. My understanding is that it is in Alamogordo (south-central NM). Besides, it's probably mostly E.T. carts anyway. Want mine?
I like how they say in the article that they had to crush the carts for fear of looters. Looting E.T. carts?! Further proof Atari was crazy.
