Before we get into the details of the following story, let's just mention a few keywords: ATARI 2600, DIY serial, bit banging, Woz-Mon.
Does this make any sense to you?
I think the title already made it clear. What Johannes le Roux - also known as @dadecoza - accomplishes here is just pure fun.
Take a standard ATARI 2600, build your own serial port interface and use some Python, patience and perseverance to bitbang the slightly modified Woz-Mon binary into the console's RAM.
A nice little experiment that Johannes describes in great detail here.
Nice to read.
