Atari 8-bit (400/800, XL, XE)

Online emulated version of Scott Adams' Graphic Adventure #1: Adventureland was originally developed for the Atari 8-bit family of home computers. Atari introduced the 400 and 800 in 1979, designed by the team behind the Atari 2600 console. The line continued with the 1200XL, the 600XL and 800XL (1983) and the 65XE and 130XE (1985), and stayed on sale until 1992. Behind the Iron Curtain it was popular in Poland, Czechoslovakia and Hungary, where the 800XL and 130XE were sold in Pewex and Tuzex shops.
The computers use a MOS 6502 processor at 1.79 MHz (NTSC) or 1.77 MHz (PAL) and three custom chips: ANTIC drives the display with its own display list, GTIA (CTIA in early models) adds colours and sprites called player missile graphics, and POKEY generates four channels of sound and reads the keyboard and paddles. The machines show up to 256 colours, 40 by 24 characters of text and up to 320 by 192 pixels. Games came on cartridges, cassettes and 5.25" floppy disks.
