   Apr 15, 2021 · The Atari 7800 embraced its Atari 2600 roots, but it took more than Atari 2600 compatibility to compete successfully with Nintendo. All third-generation consoles were heavily influenced by the Coleco Vision, the last and most advanced of the second-generation consoles. Atari knew the console from its disastrous Atari 5200 experience.

   Aug 27, 2024 · Yes we will, thats the whole point of Atari creating the Atari+ platform. Machines, games and controllers that work accross the lineup. There are challenges with how the 2600+ dumper and controller chips work, that has been improved with the 7800+, there is work going on to deal with the 2600+ to give parity - it maybe impossible with the current hardware configuration of the 2600+ so I'll ...

   Oct 7, 2018 · If you have a 2600 hooked up to a CRT and have picture issues vs 7800 on the same CRT, then your 2600 is broken. (needs a new cable and/or alignment at least) Beyond that...if you don't need the higher collectible value of the 2600 and don't have a nostalgic connection to it, then a 7800 is probably a better choice, based on game library size (basically, 2 systems in 1).

   Jul 20, 2023 · The 2600 is a real downgrade in every way from a NES or even SMS. There were some super popular games (Aventure, Pacman, River Raid) but how well they hold up over time is debatable. I won't lie, I own a 2600 and 7800 and never play either.

   Why did the Atari 78000 fail?

The Atari 2600 was the most popular console of its generation, and Atari never replicated that success again.

   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

   How many games did the Atari 2600 have?

The exact count varies but for all practical purposes, it was over 400. The quality of the titles tended to be much higher. Atari learned its lesson with the 2600.

   Nov 27, 2019 · Why limit to the 2600 when you can play better games ( although with shitty sound ) as far as 7800 titles go, while still playing the entire fucking 2600 lib. The 5200 is a totally different ball of wax - but if you want to get into that experience I would suggest just getting a XE game system or 130 XE.. other than one or two things you get everything the 5200 gave you plus SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO ...
