Have you ever played 2600 Gravitar? That games somehow tortures the 2600
into calculating the effect of *multiple* gravitational forces on the player
ship in real-time.
And then there's 2600 Gyruss, which has many objects moving around in
circles while also zooming in and out.
Yep, I think the 2600 could handle a ball and a couple of paddles without
too much trouble.
