A is for Atari

Welcome to the very first day of the 2015 A to Z Blog Challenge. This was a very last minute decision to take part this year, as I haven't been regularly blogging for a while.  

I look forward to sharing my Nostalgic Retro Vintage posts with you and visit as many blogs as I can during April.

Atari means "to hit the target" in Japanese and is also the name of the corporate and brand name started in the year I was born, 1972. 

Nostalgic? 

I remember spending tons of my childhood hours jigglin those joysticks and fighting with my pals on who's turn it was next. 

Atari pioneered the 20c arcade games that we love and remember - PacMan and Space Invaders? These incredibly wealth guys, and probably quite dead by now, helped define the electronic entertainment industry from when I was born until the late 1980s

And now a step back in time to the year 1981 and a disco dance hit that we all wiggled out bums to.  Enjoy the totally bitchin' toon.
