Pros: Arcarde Classics, Backward Compatibility Cons: Released to late.
Oh the 7800... What memories it brings back to my youth of plugging it in and playing Food-Fight, Ms. Pac Man, Dig Dug, and Donkey Kong... Oh I remember the days, oh wait! That was yesterday!
Pros: Good graphics, good sound, Cons: Not many carts available; Atari dropped the ball on promoting this fantastic machine
This is my favorite machine that Atari ever made. Now, before you Atari 2600 fans start cursing me, let me point out that the very reason it is my favorite "classic" arcade game is that those 2600 carts work on it.
This is Atari's best ever game system. It can play nearly all 2600 and 7800 games, and that's a lot. I have over 35 games for mine. Up until a couple years ago my Atari has lasted in perfect working order. It's still fine but the controllers need to be...
Pros: Some new and/or updated titles.
Plays almost all 2600 titles. Cons: Gets my vote for poorest quality case.
First of all, the negative review was only one I read here before composing this.
Speaking to his 5200 love, well Atari designed totally different processors and motherboards/slots for the 5200 vs the 2600, so it would have had to make major...
Pros: Great Graphics and Sound compared to the Atari 2600, and it even played 2600 games. Cons: Lacking video co-processing and memory in comparison to Nintendo's popular 8-bit system of the time.
If you look back to any video game machine of the 1970s and 1980s, you will find that many of the machines from a given generation are similar in alot of ways and different in others. When it came to the Atari 7800, it was a great machine for its time....
Pros: Nostalgic Memories, Cons: We Can Never Go Back.
Hello, and welcome to another trip down memory lane. On this particular trip, we will be taken back to the far away time of 1986, when a young eight year old was first introduced to the miracles of Console Gaming.
This was Atari's competition for the original Nintendo. This is a nice gaming system. I picked mine up at a garage sale a few years ago with a lot of games for under $20. Before that, I never had heard of an Atari 7800. The thing that makes this...
Pros: better controllers, sleek design, more powerful than the 2600, and has backwards compatibility with 2600 games Cons: got beat out by the NES and the Sega MS
In the fall of 1987, my father purchased the “new and improved” Atari 7800 game system to replace the Atari 2600 that finally gave out earlier that year.
I remember my family and I going to Toys-R-Us to buy my sister and I a Nintendo...
Pros: Good game play, sound, graphics, etc. for it's time Cons: old
Ok, I am I devoted atari fan. I own the Atari 7800 and Atari Jaguar and the CD add-on.
The atari 7800 was the first game system I ever had(actually I did get the odessey and Intellvision, even Socrates before, but this is the one I liked the...
Pros: Can play every Atari 2600 game out of the box, and use all 2600 controllers. Cons: Not very many games were made specifically for the 7800.
I first heard of the Atari 7800 Prosystem back in 1984, when the prototype was being featured in a sneak peak in a popular videogame magazine of the era. The glut of horrendous games at the time caused the videogame market to crash, however, and it...
I was about 4 years old when I got my first Atari Game cartridge. I was jealous of my brother's Atari games, so my parents bought me a game I could figure out..."Food Fight!". Yes, Atari made a game called "Food Fight". I...
Pros: good games, can play any games that the 2600 could, more reliable then the nes and the 2600, had a lot of good ports of classic arcade games Cons: the controllers where blister makers
The Atari 7800 was my first video game systems, I got it when I was 5 years old. All though the 7800 was definitely behind the NES has far has power goes, it was still a fun machine. Unfortunately my Atari 7800 got fried when I was only 7.
Pros: Excellent animation, colourful graphics. Backwards compatible with Atari 2600. Fun games. Cons: Terrible sound; many games are needlessly short or repetitive; poor 3rd party support.
The Atari 7800 is arguably my favorite system of all time. I've also owned other Atari machines including the 2600, the XE Game System, the Lynx and the Jaguar. In addition, I've also owned a Sega Master System, a Sega Genesis and Nintendo NES.
First off, you should know that I actually own an Atari 7800 unit. I just purchased it from Ebay and have more games coming. I also own an Atari Jaguar and a 2600. I'm what you might call an old school gamer.
Pros: Ms. Pac Man, Food Fight, Galaga, and other early eighties classics. Cons: Karate Ka, Double Dragon, Ikari Warriors, and so many others.
Atari 7800 Prosystem (1987-1990) The Atari 7800 prosystem is a 8-bit game machine that has near perfect arcade translations of older arcade games like Ms. Pac Man, Galaga, Asteriods and Dig Dug, but also has lousy ports newer arcade ...
