   Apr 15, 2021 · The Atari 2600 and 7800 are directly related. After the Atari 5200 flopped, Atari needed a better successor to take over for the aging 2600. So the Atari 2600 vs 7800 is a natural comparison. Let’s look at the improvements the 7800 had over its predecessor, and why it wasn’t able to match the 2600’s runaway success.

Makes sense to me.

   May 6, 2005 · Relatively speaking, the 2600 platform has attracted more innovation. By the time the 7800 came to market there were more sophisticated consoles coming out. You could say the 7800 is 2600 compatible, and that stops the argument, but like mentioned previously the ergonomics aren't all that enjoyable. 2.

   Feb 10, 2013 · There is a 5200 trackball controller. If you get into the 5200 then I recommend all the above. It can be expensive but since the 5200 has a much smaller library than the 2600 it is still cheaper collecting for the 5200. You can also get the Atarimax Ultimate SD Cartridge.

   Sep 27, 2024 · For a number of people, the frank answer will be “not much”. In reality, the 7800+ is more a refresh of the 2600+, albeit one in a completely different form factor. Ardent Atari collectors will clearly want one because at £110 / $130 it’s a relatively inexpensive price to pay for another recreation of a classic system that’s in good ...

   Is a 2600+ better than a 7800+?

   • Because the 2600+ was released at a moment in time, whats better, to release the 7800+ in exactly the same hardware and software spec as the launch 2600+ or to subtlely improve on it whilst trying to ensure 2600+ keeps getting the same upgrades. Makes sense to me. But that will lead to better compatibility because of those changes.

   Is the Atari 5200 better than the 2600?

   • Gremlins, H.E.R.O., Moon Patrol, Space Dungeon, Pengo, and The Dreadnaught Factor were all examples of what the 5200 could arguably do better than its 2600 predecessor. However, a few gems aren’t nearly enough to save the Atari 5200 from some well-deserved scorn. 4. Jaguar

   Why did the Atari 78000 fail?

   • The 78000 locked out unlicensed third party development. This kept the market from getting flooded with low quality games like the 2600 did, preventing another catastrophic video game crash.

   Does Atari 7800 have backwards compatibility?

   • Despite failing to outsell even the Sega Master System, Atari’s 7800 boasted backwards compatibility at a time when that wasn’t something people really thought about. You had the entire 2600 library at your disposal, and then the games made exclusively for the 7800.
