I'd love to see a dev setup for using the PDP-11 and the Atari 2600 for doing gamedev. I did a quick search on youtube and the search engines and couldn't find anything.

The photographs I've seen aren't all that interesting.
A VT-52 terminal and a hand-built cart wired into an RS-232 port, all on a long desk.
Hopefully there are more exciting photographs out there that I haven't seen.
Be see, I mean a demo of what it is like to dev Atari 2600 games using a PDP-11. I mean there are PDP-11 emulators, we could setup a pure virtual Atari dev system.
We had a PDP 11/70 for undergraduate work when I started studying for my BSCS in 1984. Nothing pretty, just glass vt52 and vt100 type terminals. Oh, and a 110 baud line printer that could also be used as a terminal. That line printer was not fun, but I had to use it on occasion when all the good terminals were taken.
