Something to show the kiddies how it was when dinosaurs roamed the earth and you had to walk twenty miles in the snow every day to get to school:

Atari 50: The Anniversary Celebration takes players on an interactive journey through 50 years of video games, including a specially-curated list of more than 100 playable classics and six entirely new titles from the award-winning team at Digital Eclipse

At the heart of The Anniversary Celebration are Interactive Timelines, which combine trivia, all-new interviews with the original developers and industry leaders, and playable games into one singular experience.

Play extremely rare titles from the Atari Jaguar and Lynx platforms, 8-bit computers and 7800, 5200 and 2600 consoles.

Would it kill them to list the games in the package? Seriously.

Some folks have been doing their utmost to figure out what's in the bag by looking at the ads:

Thanks. Thinking about prior sorts of releases like this, I bet that different platforms have different sets of games, so there is probably a core set of games common to most, if not all of the platforms, and then some games that are particular to one or a few platforms (for no good reason). And that explains why Atari doesn't provide a list on their page since they either take tons of flak or confuse the heck out of people.
