I'm surprised it wasn't added to the Homebrew Browser with today's update (maybe too recent of a release).

Ha, ha!
I feel old.
I actually grew up playing the 2600 and would still play occasinally right up until a friend of mine bought the NES around '88.
After that, we never looked back.
Now I'm more than twice as old than Arikado.

It's good to see a Atari emulator on the Wii. Now we can play E.T!

Well, now Wii2600 is available and it is a much better port of Stella.
It loads immediately, is very user friendly and the controller mappings make more sense.

The 2600 is now well served indeed.

LOL!!! I actually have that cartridge. I got this box full of games and a 2600 a year or two back but it is missing the TV cable. I tried my RF modulator from my Genesis but that didn't work. I've played some of the Atari games on my computer but there is nothing like being on the couch in front of a real TV for the experience.
