Best Answer

The Atari 2500 was an unreleased prototype. The released version, the Atari 2600, came out in 1977, and the first game would have been Combat, which came with the console. The 2600 wasn't actually called the "2600" until 1982, before then it was the VCS or Video Computer System.

Between 1973 when Atari Inc. bought Cyan Engineering and October 1977 when it was released.
