Coming this summer is the continuation of Jakks Pacific's series of Atari TV Games' units: the Atari Paddle TV Games. Like the Atari TV Games joystick released two years ago, the Atari Paddle TV Games will mimic the paddles released with the original Atari 2600 system and include several paddle-based classics built into the device. Gamers simply plug it directly into the televison to experience the old-school games.
Several games that used the paddle were included in the original Atari TV Games Joystick, but because the controller couldn't accurately portray the analog control of a paddle they weren't well represented.
The Atari Paddle TV Games controller looks, feels, and plays just like the original Atari paddle. Games featured in the device include:
Breakout,
Canyon Bomber,
Casino,
Circus Atari,
Demons to Diamonds,
Night Driver,
Steeplechase,
Street Racer,
Super Breakout,
Warlords, Warlords Arcade,
Video Olympics, Arcade Pong and
Pong. There will be two types of Atari Paddle TV Games units released this summer: single player and two player.
These Atari Paddle TV Games will go on sale for apx. $20 this summer.

I will light the match this mornin', so I will not be alone
Watch as she lies silent, for soon light will be gone
Oh, I will stand arms outstretched, pretend I'm free to roam
Oh, I will make my way, through, one more day in Hell...
