The Atari 2600, released in 1977, is the first successful video game console to use
plug-in cartridges instead of having one or more games built in. It was originally known
as the Atari VCS, for Video Computer System, and the name "Atari 2600" (taken from
the unit's Atari part number, CX2600) was first used in 1982, after the release of
the more advanced Atari 5200. It was wildly successful, and during the 1980s, "Atari" was
a synonym for this model in mainstream media. The 2600 was typically bundled with two
joystick controllers, a conjoined pair of paddle controllers, and a cartridge game.
