Atari 5200

It has been suggested that this article should be merged with Atari. To find out moar, spam the goddamn talk page.

Yes, they thought this was an improvement.

The Atari 5200 is an inferior piece of shit to its predecessor oldfag: the Atari 2600. Its controller barely responds to anything you do unless you beg it to end your suffering, and it used a number pad for some of the simplest games ever, making it look more like you were playing on a shitty cell phone than anything. It did have another controller to attempt to fix that problem rather than fix it, that had you playing with its ball, but it was like playing with a VCR in your lap. Because clearly, simply fixing what was wrong with your controller was too much effort and money while Atari swam in its pool made of Jew Golds and tears of crying, unhappy children, Scrooge-style.

It had a tiny library akin to Dylan Standerford's reproductive organs, which you couldn't play anyway because of said controller working like it was a block of styrofoam. The games, like the system, are shit and bubba-sized. At least the back opened up to hold your Bud Light so you can drink yourself to sleep and disappointment at having spending hundreds of dollars on a potential brick.
