Games by Apollo Inc. (also known as Apollo) was a third-party developer of games for the Atari 2600 video game system, based in Richardson, Texas. It was founded in October 1981 by Pat Roper as a subsidiary of his National Career Consultants (NCC). Apollo's first title was Skeet Shoot, and neither it nor the ten games that followed caught on, and the company was one of the first to declare bankruptcy as a result of the video game crash of 1983.

  • Games by Apollo (ofta förkortat Apollo) var en tredjepartsutvecklare till spelkonsolen Atari 2600, baserad i Richardson, Texas. Företaget grundades av Pat Roper 1981. Deras första datorspel var Skeet Shoot och de släppte totalt elva spel till 2600. Titlarna fick dock inget genomslag och när TV-spelskraschen i Nordamerika inträffade 1983 var de ett av de första mjukvaruföretagen som gick i konkurs. Flera tidigare anställda gick vidare till att grunda andra spelutvecklingsstudior för Atari 2600. (sv)
