Re: Best Atari Game

Every Atari 7800 I run into works! The graphics
are pretty good! The only problem I have had is with
the joysticks, but I have heard that there are other
joysticks out there that will work with it. The graphics
are a little smaller than the 5200, but the colors
are much brighter.
