๐Ÿ•น๏ธAbout Atari 7800

The 7800 arrived in 1986 with near-arcade 2D graphics and, unusually for its era, full backwards compatibility with the 2600 library. It launched too late against the NES but its arcade conversions hold up.

R36S Compatibility (Perfect): Full-speed on all R36 models. Titles using the POKEY sound chip need the matching BIOS for correct audio.
