I certainly won't be buying a TESLA just to play ATARI games.

I expect we will eventually hear of the first hack to remove this restriction, then the first totaled car as a result.

With the subsequent class action lawsuits against Tesla to follow soon thereafter...

That's really awesome!

When their new stupid Atari VCS fails as a current gen gaming console, Perhaps people can shove them in their glovebox and link it to the Tesla's in-car display :P

Nah. But someone will hack it so they can drive real life replicas of the Pole Position courses. Then, they will hack it to self-drive the real life replicas of the Pole Position courses and THEN someone will walk onto the real life replica of a Pole Position course and get themselves killed.
