Vintage video game piracy: the Vidco Copy Cart

Copycart The gaming industry likes to paint piracy as a terrifyingly modern problem, but the truth is that "backup" systems have been around for decades. The Vidco Copy Cart for the Atari 2600 is a wonderful example of state of the art copy technology, circa 1983.

Atari Age reports: "It was sold in a bundle with the cartridge duplicator and the game Dishaster. Basically, the copier was a double-ended apparatus in which you would insert the copy cart in one end and the source cart in the other. Press a button, and the code is copied to the copy cart. The cartridge could be erased and reused. This item is very difficult to find." They rate the device as "unbelievably rare."
