That's the book that got me to deep dive into this world. I never made anything interesting or fun for the 2600 (though I'm hoping nanochess' book will inspire me to) but I'm quite happy to watch, support and enjoy the work the massive community is doing. Imagine if we had something like this[0] in 80's. That's just one of dozens of excellent 2600 games that have come out of the homebrew scene. AtariAge's next batch of releases alone has 24 new games for various Atari system. This weekend ZeroPage Homebrew [1] is playing all of them, while interviewing the developers for every one. It's such a great community.
