[Coco] Rare Electronic games/devices

[Salvador Garcia]

 Yeah, I didn't get it. What Space Invaders? Were they referring to the arcade game, the 2600 console, the cartridge for the Atari computers.. what?

The title includes the acronym VCS, so maybe it was the 2600, 5200, 7800?? Ok, ole reliable Wiki says that the Atari VCS was released in 1977 and later renamed to Atari 2600, so I guess the references this model and the article's text refers to the cartridge. Shucks, I have one, but for the Atari 400/800.

 It's an "unusual" slideshow article to say the least. This wildly incorrect
entry is perhaps the biggest head-scratcher of all-time as these things go:

Still, it's good to see the Dragon on something like that. The American
version, the Tano Dragon, is one of only a handful of computers I kept
after getting rid of 99% of the rest of my collection (although, to be
fair, it stayed on because of a technicality).
