Overview
Overview
Its controllers are on the console face, with 4 directional buttons, a paddle, and a fire button. Games are inserted in the top of the system by opening a door that also bears a small instruction booklet. The system was not intended as a big seller for Atari but rather as a clearance of CPUs from unsold dedicated consoles. Atari canceled the Game Brain around 1978. Three Atari Game Brain consoles and five prototype cartridges are known to exist.
