great site, thanks so much for the complete collection of atari 2600 roms, hope you upload collections for the other atari consoles as well :)

thanks, this site brought back so many memories

Great site, Rom.. one of the best I've ever seen, and I use it all the time.. thanks for doing it

Many fond memories here... try out this site if you want to run man of these classic ST games http://estyjs.azurewebsites.net/ This emulator was written by myself.

this is one if not the best vintage site i've had the pleasure of visiting sure brings back old time competing with my father and brother.

Great collection! Takes me back! Like just about everyone, I had an Atari "Pong" console back in the mid 70s then in the 80s got an Atari 2600 then the 130XE along with an 800XL both of which I ran a BBS on for many years. Thanks for the memories!

Excellent site!

great site tons of games i remember from when iwas a child be nice to see some modern titles developed for these systems like people do on the spectrum

Thanks for making this site! It is awesome! Really has all the resources that I needed for all my Atari stuff. I am so glad I found it.

I am an 80's child that grew up with the Atari. This is a fantastic website! Thank you :)

There was a "ET" game for the Atari Computers. Much better than the 2600 version and It Talked. Ahead of its time forsure please find and post :)

Coolsite!

An excellent Atari Web Site. I have owned Atari 400, 800, 800XL, 65XE and 520STE computers since December 1982 and what I love about the www.atarimania.com web site is the pdf's of the Atari 8 bit books, manuals magazines and Technical Documents etc. The Best Atari Web Site on the Web. Thank you.

Great site!

Yes, Atari ST was amazing! Learned Programming on It. Wrote reports for School On It, At That Time It Gave Discussion If That Was Allowed. CALAMUS, Flights Sim, Mission Elavator, Degas, Where My Favs. Greath site!

A fantastic site and very well laid out (If a little brown?) As an STE owner I would like to see more clarity on the differences between titles that are 'enhanced' on the STE.

i love the atari 800xl system and all of the atari products (but not et).

I use your site to research what cartridges to buy for my 800XL. Brilliant!

I'm glad Atari Mania is still going strong. I finally checked out the game ads page and was swept up with a wave of excitement when my memories went back many years. The ads are colorful and the art was/is inspiring setting the mood for the games very well.

Thank you very very much for this great work. What a wonderful memories! I begun to love computing stuff since I knew the Atari 800 XL in 1987, now I work as software engineer because of it and I still enjoy my job. I could only bought some numbers of MundoAtari and TurboNews in Chile those days and never saw the whole collection. I have it now! Thank you!!!

Hi guys - just joined - might not remember me but I won the Space Invaders contest in London in 1981. Just been reading the old Member News - takes me back - still have an old scrapbook that includes every newspaper clipping that was taken from the day including even Australian coverage!!

No matter how much time passes by, how much computer technology evolves, to me nothing compares to the power inside the humble ATARI 800XL, my first computer ever. How amazing the things that CAN be done about sounds and graphics with only 32k available for programming!

I started off with a 2600 when very young and eventually had (after a spectrum) 529 STe upgraded to 1040. Dungeon Master, Captive, Wings of Death, Epic, Fire and Brimstone, Most Microprose titles, Another World, Castle Master, Magic Pockets, forever swapping discs, pre-ordering Legends of Valour direct from US Gold and waiting for what seemed like years for it to be released and dancing for joy the 1st time it loaded up, the box was really cool too, like a book (Bethesda have obviously used this game as an inspiration). I could jabber on forever until my tiny brain imploded and my comma key wore out. Oh and Jeff Minter is a God!

Awesome site guys, despite all the advances in technology, I still find time to play Atari 2600 games. It's my fountain of youth. It's great that you are preserving arguably the greatest period in gaming history.... well done!! keep up the great work!

Amazing Stuff ! I was CTO at Roklan Software, and I can't believe this stuf is still alive. Now I can prove to my son the value of what I did before he was born. Thanks.

You're amazing, thank you!

SPLENDID WORK

WOW, so many memories...I owed a 65XE and then the 1040STFM....I loved it! Happy to see that there still is an active community out there.

Ahhh, so nice to revisit, my childhood. The hours spent on weekends, and ill off school, dipping into the powerpack, I can still smell the scent of the overheated st. Thankyou, Great site

Although I no longer have any of the old consoles & computers, I do like reading about retro history, & playing the old software. This site is an excellent resource for the Atari machines, & I must thank you for enabling me to do this.

Glad to see many out there who still cherish these memories. What a great time it was - making "bad sectors" on my 1050 floppy drive with sector editors, dialing into CompuChat, and hours of typing in cool programs from the latest magazines. I remember how exciting it was when a new magazine hit the stands! Thanks to all contributors. St. Louis, MO

Brilliant site ! cant believe RainbowWalker isnt in the 400/800/XL /XE TOP 100! cheers steve

Hi Guys just want to say thanks for having some great atari magazines on this site as well as a lot of great info here. Brings back a lot of good memories.

Wow , you have a very complete site with lots of info. thanks

Thank you guys so much for all the wonderful memories. I am from Brazil and I used to play these games when I was 11. Now I'm a woman of 43 years old, and to be able to play these games again in my PC it is beyond words!!! Back then my favorites were asteroids and enduro. Thanks guys, again for this magnific site! Best regards, Chris.

This site is fantastic! I remember buying a copy of Antic Vol 3 No 2 June 1984 and spending hours typing in the Escape from Epsilon game into my Atari 800. Those were the days. Thank you for making my day. Cheers John

Great work on this site. Really good source for STX images. Just one note: it is not possible to make "STX-loader for ST. " - even if there is plenty of RAM. STX format is good only for emulators. When some game takes control over machine you can not execute other tasks - like decoding STX file.

Thanks for this site,it is wonderful to have a place like this to come to,as a teen I started on ATARI 800,it still reveger me to play with some of thease games on an emulator,thanks again,keep up the good work,the best to all your team,thanks.

Thanks for this great site and lots of information. I have an Atari 800 XL 1985 bought in Poland, because in East Germany no Atari computer was gaufen to. I have. Many programs on cassette in the "CHAOS SYSTEM" and it uses 6000 baud for data transfers There are some programs that are missing here, for example. "Star Lyricist". The programs are still to load and work without problems. Unfortunately I have only the CHAOS CopyTrans Later. I lack the programs for the 6000 baud 600 baud back to normal convert, maybe someone can help. Thanks from Berlin Wolf axel.wolf@gmx.de

I give my best congratulations and I send only Thank you, Thaks for that years of entretaiment, but I did'n found controls for my 5200, but in this web site I can play my best games when I was a child, thanks for all ATARI and ATARIMANIA. Thanks from Quito-Ecuador Madcat X

I had a lot of fun programming the Atari and missed that when I gave all my stuff away -due to emigrating. Now, with an emulator on the pc and some of the books from your site I can enjoy it once more - and, of course, play some games. Thanks so much! :)

Love This Site! Im 51 And Love All The Stuff Here!!!

This site is just amazing. This site took me back to age 13 and some really great times. Thanks you.

I can't thank enough for all the love and effort that you invested on your site. It's of great generosity that you published all this work for free, everything so well organized and simple. Those were the golden days of videogaming, and you did a great job of displaying everything about them here, with all the care that they deserve. I only wish I could go back in time and enjoy a bit more those long afternoons of Atari. With your great site, we can almost do that. Best regards from Brazil.

Thank you so much for making this site! It means a lot to me and I am telling my old friends about it who had Atari computers back in the day like me. It really fulfilled my nostalgia for Atari stuff. I will be coming here often. Great job and super thorough! :D

I really miss the atari and specially megamania.

Excellent site , I have 2600, 7800, 130XE, 1040ST, 1040STf, 1040STe and a atari portfolio. best machines ever thanks! Greetings from the Netherlands.

Best Atari site on Earth, well done!

Awesome resource! Thanks for all the hard work!

I just found this site and it has reignited my interest in all things Atari. Brilliant site, well done those who built it. I have two Atari 800 XLs and one 400 with membrane keyboard. Have about 1500 programs for them. I will have to get one set up again and have a go at Zaxxon and Clowns and Balloons. Regards to all, and thanks for letting me join.
