Released in October 1977, the Atari 2600 hardware used the microprocessing chips and game cartridges that were popular at the time, eliminating models that did not use microprocessing chips and directly integrated games in the hardware. This concept of cartridge insertion was first adopted by a model called the Fairchild Channel F, but was popularized by the Atari 2600 in the gaming world.

The Atari 2600 was a huge success, and in the early 1980s, "Atari" was the representative of the mainstream video game media of the era, comparable to Nintendo in the mid-to-late '80s and PlayStation in the '90s.

During the life of this console, Atari released many good games that will never be recorded. Examples include Adventure (often considered the progenitor of action-adventure games), Bricks, and Yars' Revenge. The 2600's popularity attracted a large number of third-party vendors, representative works such as Activision's Pitfall, Imagic's Atlantis, and Canal Wars, which was also the most popular game of the year. But "Alien E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial) and Pac-Eater Elf were badly criticized when the console wars began in 1983.

In 1991, production of the Atari 2600 finally stopped, as the console had clearly demonstrated its technical age and competitors had brought new and more powerful products to the market.
