There are also sections for developers to find out more on using IE10 and HTML5, and a streaming video reminding everyone what the Atari 2600 was like, and promoting how IE10 has reimagined the games.
The Atari Arcade in HTML5 was launched for desktop browsers earlier this year, with ten Atari titles in the mix, but now the titles and code on four games have been optimised for mobile. Microsoft's Steve Lake:
Now we’re excited that the gameplay has been extended to the mobile web – we worked with Atari and Grant Skinner again to ensure four of the original games you know and love – Pong, Missile Command, Asteroids and Super Breakout – have been updated to really light up on a smaller screen. What’s really exciting here is that Grant Skinner’s team made mobile enhancements to the CreateJS framework that we’re releasing to help developers build cross-platform HTML5 games.
