What is a .A26 file?
The file extension .A26 is a type of game file specifically used for playing Atari 2600 games on a computer, rather than on the original Atari 2600 gaming console. This file acts like a digital version of the game cartridge that would have originally been inserted into the Atari console. When you use an Atari 2600 emulator, such as Stella or z26, it can open and run these .A26 files. This allows you to play classic Atari 2600 games on your computer as if you were playing them on the original hardware. Emulators like Stella and z26 are special programs designed to mimic the Atari 2600, so when they open a .A26 file, they can recreate the game experience on your computer screen.
