Atari 2600 boxesAtari 2600 boxes

As with many things 2600 related, the best variety of boxes can be found for this system. Among the manufacturers that produced games for the 2600 there is an abundance of unique box styles. Atari naturally leads the way with boxes, having produced the most games in several different styles tied closely to their cartridge labels. Most companies created one box style and used that for all their games, simply altering the title and artwork on the front of the box and then the description and screenshots (if any!) on the back. But a few companies, such as Salu and Telesys, created unique boxes for each title.

Since the 2600 is one of the oldest classic gaming systems, it can be rather difficult finding boxes for this system. And when you are fortunate to run across boxes they're not always in the best shape, especially those found in the wild. Because of this, boxed games, especially rarer titles, can be worth considerably more than just the cartridge alone. For instance, a boxed Swordquest: Waterworld game is rare find indeed and could easily double the asking price, whereas a boxed Pac-Man might not even catch the attention of most collectors. A good source of new, shrinkwrapped 2600 and 7800 titles can be found at O'Shea, Ltd. for $2.00 each.

If you have any boxes for the 2600 that we're missing and would like to loan them to us or scan them, please contact us!
