Me and my brother got one of these as a joint Xmas present, it came with a free game- Combat!

I loved playing Space Invaders, Frogger, Empire Strikes Back, there was also a space game where you had to input coordinates into a gadget to then hyperspace jump and fight other space ships, can't remember what it was called but it was great!

It's still at my parents house in the original box...

You mean Star Raiders? I have that and the official control pad.

I had that on the Atari 400 without any instructions. It took me forever how to refuel. Also, I later found out this weird game I remember playing was Conway's Game of Life and its significance way later in life.
