:      But I don't remember ATARI 2600 having a Pong cartridge, I had a Pong
game
: that was it's own console (it DID look a lot like the 2600, but no style, just
: black plastic). You could play squash, and a couple of other things that only
: relyed on paddles and a square ball. :)

I had that one !! ... I think ... I remember mine as being orange and black
