Atari Red
- Overview
- Games
Starting in 1986 Atari began using the red packaging style for all of their Atari 2600 games. The box and cartridge
labels featured a red background (the color varied slightly with some games having a darker red than others) and
the Atari logo along with a large "2600" in the upper left. Similar to the later
silver style labels, the game title was in a stylized text
above the illustration. Some games with the red packaging style were re-releases of earlier games while
others were only released in this style. The initial games with the red packaging featured a black and white
illustration on the cartridge label while later games were in color.
