toymailman Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 I am in the process of testing all my 7800 units and wanted to see if any are truly 100% compatible with all 2600 titles. I have listed below the ones that are in my testing process. I grabbed some from the FAQ and others from searching the threads here. Am I missing any that have shown problems in the past? Thanks! Decathlon Robot Tank Space Shuttle Burgertime Kool-Aid Man Dark Chambers Stargate Supercharger Also Food Fight for the 7800 While I am at it, I am also using the 7800 Diagnostic cart and the Color Bar Generator to calibrate colors in the 7800 and 2600 modes of operation. Then each gets tested with Testcart to make sure all other 2600 functions/controllers work properly. A good cleaning finishes it all off.

purduecrum Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 My Time Pilot doesn't like my 7800, but is 100% on my 2600 jr. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toymailman Posted March 16, 2011 Author Share Posted March 16, 2011 Thanks, I'll add that to my testing list. What does it do when plugged into your 7800 (ie. roll, blank screen, lock up, etc.)? Also, what is the serial number on your 7800 unit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DocEss Posted March 17, 2011 Share Posted March 17, 2011 My Time Pilot also has issues with my 7800. I'd have to check the model number later, but it doesn't roll or even attempt to load, just varying flat color screens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
purduecrum Posted March 17, 2011 Share Posted March 17, 2011 Has expansion interface... A1 5057643. I think the game is just black. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toymailman Posted March 21, 2011 Author Share Posted March 21, 2011 Didn't Santa Simon for the 7800 have issues on some units too? I believe that is why it was not sold in the store anymore as well. I'll add that to my testing list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dauber Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 FTR, my 7800 worked with a Supercharger, and it has zero problems with The Activision Decathlon, Burgertime, or Stargate. All I know is it doesn't have the expansion port, nor does it have the punch-out for one... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ntavio Posted June 8, 2011 Share Posted June 8, 2011 Does this thread include games that just don't fit in the cart slot? If so any Tigervision cart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vacuumnoise Posted July 24, 2011 Share Posted July 24, 2011 the only game I ever had trouble playing on my 7800 was Mega Force My lihttp://www.atariage.com/software_page.html?SoftwareLabelID=296nk and I always assumed the cartridge was bad or broken, I cleaned it like crazy and couldnt find anything physically broken... anyone else ever have trouble playing this on their 7800?

toymailman Posted July 26, 2011 Author Share Posted July 26, 2011 Kool Aid Man works fine on my 7800.. what issue was it having? The screen is just black with a vertical line near the left hand side for the few 7800 units that it didn't work for. Also, I found (with some 7800 units) the cart didn't fit well in the slot. It wouldn't go in far enough for the contacts to make a good connection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toymailman Posted July 26, 2011 Author Share Posted July 26, 2011 the only game I ever had trouble playing on my 7800 was Mega Force If I do anymore testing, then I can add this to the list. I will likely remove others as some games did not have a problem (in cart form or from Harmony) on any of the units I tested. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ApolloBoy Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 Food Fight doesn't work on my 7800, it'll play for a few minutes and then crash. I still have no reason as to why it doesn't work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
