The Atari 2600 has only two controller ports, it does not have a multitap.\u00a0 The Paddle Controllers come in a pair that connect to one port, however, so four people can play on one system.\u00a0 Few games support this — games with simultaneous multiplayer on the 2600 must be Paddle games, and must be multiplayer paddle games, to have 4-player support.\u00a0 In addition to games like Warlords with simultaneous multiplayer on the paddles, I will also list games which support 3+ player alternating multiplayer on normal controllers.\u00a0 The list of 2600 games with 3+ player support is short, but does include a few great games, most notably the all-time classic Warlords.\u00a0 Warlords is easily the best Breakout-style game on the 2600, and really is a must-play game!<\/p>\n
