I'm trying to find the USA release dates of the "official" (500 or less) games made for the Atari 2600 VCS by all companies, such as Atari, Activision, Imagic, M Network, Parker Brothers, 20th Century Fox, U.S. Games, Data Age, Spectravision, and so on. I hope to find the information from the time the Atari VCS came out in 1977, to 1984 and maybe some of those which came out after that in the late 1980s.
Information that lists, Game - Month/Year - Company, would be great, but I would be happy with just knowing the season a game came out. I'm trying to get it straight in my head about the order the games came out each year. For example, was Grand Prix by Activision out before a certain Atari made game, and so on.
I've asked "The Atari Historical Society", "I. C. When", "Atari Gaming HQ", "Leonard Herman", and many others, but none of them have the answer.
I found some web sites that only listed the year each game was released. I. C. When only has month/year release dates on a handfull of Atari And Activision games.
Do you know of anyone who collected this kind of information, such as an Atari employee, a video game salesperson, or someone who worked for a video game magazine back then?
Since no web site lists this information yet, I'll put it on the internet myself (free for everyone to see), because I know I'm not the only one who would love to see the month and year each game came out. It will help trigger memories from that magical time. All I need is your help to find the information. I hope you have it or know where I can get it. Don't worry, I'll give you credit if you help me (unless you don't want it).
Thanks for your help,
Duane Alan Hahn
