Wow, I'll second that.  After I saw the Atari History page at:

    http://www.atari-history.com/arcade/arcademenu.html

I realized that there were many, many earlier coin-op Atari games from the
'70s that I'd never heard of, much less ever seen in real life, but did
know of the 2600 versions.  I'd have to admit that I'd never seen anything
much older than Asteroids or Sprint 2.
