Basketbrawl: 7800 - $2.99

[Atari_JaguarVCS]

Just grabbed both games!. That’s tonight’s entertainment sorted, don’t think I’ve actually played these before so I am looking forward to it ..

I wonder if a re-release of Midnight Mutants is possible. That's the perfect 7800 game to play this month.

Yeah, featuring "Grampa"!🤣  Atari couldn't get the rights to the Munsters so they just signed Grampa!  I always thought that was funny.

I'm practicing Desert Falcon on the train, via my Blaze Atari Retro Handheld. Yay!

Ok, but so much better, crystal clear on a big screen, via the VCS. 🙂

I took a look at Desert Falcon:

Here's a look at Basketbrawl!

Ninja Golf 7800 

Scrapyard Dog 7800

 

Two more great classic 7800 games!

[Mockduck]

Looking at Ninja Golf! I wonder why Atari isn't putting the manuals out along with the ROMS, there's a space for it in the Details section, and they are half doing it in some cases...

I am not sure if it would be hilarious or sad if the games sold better on the VCS than they did originally on the 7800 release...

 

I'm going to have to pick these up!

Scrapyard Dog 7800: 
 

 

That sewer level...

[stirrell]

Imagine making those jumps with the ProLine controllers! I am really enjoying seeing reactions to the games who didn’t play them back on the 7800. It wasn’t until I got a converted Genesis controller that I was finally able to make some of those jumps. But they are still ridiculously hard especially for such an early level.

So good to see these on the VCS.  Nice price at $2.99.

Looking forward to 8bit, ST, Lynx, Jag too.

I would buy a Club Drive: Recharged!

[Mikebloke]

Fair play for them doing this. I've got all these games on my 7800 but I'd totally buy them on pc as well if I could.

The possibility of Jaguar games on VCS makes me really excited. They did renew the trademark not too long ago so they're planning something.

It is nice to see them giving the 7800 some love.

Ha, trying to think about what that would even look like... like the newer MK games, I would guess.  maybe this time we can have more colors of the same ninja.

I was hoping for at least ten more degrees of gore. I could never get the right amount of blood on the screen that I was comfortable with on the original game.

 

All of which would end with a bad ending.

Atari 7800 Motor Psycho hits the VCS store today! 
As a long-time biker, (well until I was 30), I'm happy with that one for today. 🙂

 

[Atari_JaguarVCS]

Not a bad game downloaded it earlier and really liking it so far!. I was hoping for x2 7800 game releases this week but I’m happy enough with this game and will hopefully have more time to enjoy it tomorrow.

[jerseystyle]

I really like that they are doing this. Maybe a bit late to the party but it’s a great idea. Give us more, maybe I’ll buy one. Get some Midnight Mutants on there- someone’s gotta smash up that damn plasmid pumpkin!
