caveman Posted June 10, 2003 Share Posted June 10, 2003 All your arcade ports are safe bets. Granted some are better than others- I personally don't care for Pole Position, and Asteroids could have been better (like psuedo vectors.) Ballblazer is great, also.

Miqorz Posted June 10, 2003 Share Posted June 10, 2003 For me it HAS to be Robotron fast paced arcade actions YEAH BABY! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inky Posted June 10, 2003 Share Posted June 10, 2003 Can't believe I never posted to this.. My fav is XEVIOUS followed by BALLBLAZER. I prefer the 7800 Xevious to even the arcade version! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stein Posted July 3, 2003 Share Posted July 3, 2003 I've only got 15 7800 games so far but the onles I like most include One on One Super Huey Xevious Dk Jr Galaga seems like ONE best game is hard to decide upon! ought to do a poll... Jumpman??? well if you're interested in jman you could visit a friend of mines site (I'm sure he'll think the few extra hits are cool ) http://members.iinet.net.au/~cleathley/jumpman/ he is working on a jman construction set of sorts called Jumpman Under Construction.

marcfrick2112 Posted July 3, 2003 Share Posted July 3, 2003 Another Vote for Food Fight! When I finally got a working 7800, I got about 5 7800 games, I played Food Fight, almost uncontrolably, for several hours. Haven't done that for a long time... BallBlazer is my other #1...

tyranthraxus Posted July 3, 2003 Share Posted July 3, 2003 Wow I never thought I'd see Super Huey on a fav list The 7800 has a lot of good titles, in general the arcade ports are good bets. I've got about 35 of the games and while most are good there are only a few that I've found to be real perfection. Joust is #1 on my list. I love the game on the 7800, nice graphics & sound. Its very basic and quite addictive. Ms Pac man is a fantastic port with great arcade faithful sound and graphics. #2 and the only other game that is pefect IHMO. Commando is a must have but I don't like the grahpics too much. Galaga is super fun but its pretty easy compared to the arcade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunstar Posted July 7, 2003 Share Posted July 7, 2003 One top game is tuff. Ikari Warriors, Commando, Ballblazer and Tower toppler I think are the cream of the crop on the 7800. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kondre Posted July 7, 2003 Share Posted July 7, 2003 Xevious would be my fav followed by joust choplifter is one of my fav's too eventhough its not the greatest port, its just fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZylonBane Posted July 7, 2003 Share Posted July 7, 2003 was 7800 food fight the first console game with instant replay??? If memory serves, One on One Basketball was the first with instant replay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agent X Posted July 8, 2003 Share Posted July 8, 2003 Food Fight preceded One-on-One Basketball on the 7800. However, One-on-One did exist on several computer platforms before the 7800 system was even released. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZylonBane Posted July 8, 2003 Share Posted July 8, 2003 Both games are ports. Food Fight from the arcade, One on One from the Apple II. (goes and looks up some dates) Here are the various release dates: Food Fight (arcade): 1983 One on One (Apple): 1983 Food Fight (7800): 1987 One on One (7800): 1987 Woah. Umm... looks like this one is a tie! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voch Posted July 8, 2003 Share Posted July 8, 2003 I guess I'm the only one who likes 7800 Donkey Kong. I finally got a 7800 and a copy of the game and think that it's fun (except, of course, for the sound). Voch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GaryH917 Posted July 9, 2003 Share Posted July 9, 2003 The 7800 has many good games, very hard to pick one or two... Most played on my 7800: Klax Ikari Warriors Commando Alien Brigade Midnight Mutants Tank Command's graphic's aren't that great, but it's a very challenging game!

Joey Kay Posted July 9, 2003 Share Posted July 9, 2003 Hmmm... so many good games... so hard to decide. I'd vote for Food Fight, or even Dig Dug. Really, all the 1984 programmed arcade ports are winners. And I kinda like the ice cream scoop Asteroids... I think a vector version would have looked crumby in 1984... although cool to have today.
