Top 25 Atari 7800 Games of All Time

The 7800 is considered to be one of the first backwards-compatible game consoles as it could play Atari 2600 games without the use of additional modules. And no, it can't play 5200 games. Atari didn't seem to care much for that system following its failure to even come close to the 2600's success.
The console (7800) was later discontinued on January 1, 1992 due to its failure to compete with the NES and even the Sega Master System for that matter. In this video I've included one of the games that, because of said discontinuation, did not see a commercial release from Atari at the time. But was later released in 2002.
So let's count down 25 of the best Atari 7800 ProSystem games of all time. And, as usual with these video lists, they are based on research from a variety of sources. Sometimes I'll use my personal experiences with a game to make a determination in whether or not it makes the final cut.
So with that said, I hope you enjoy this entry in my "Top 25" series of videos. There's more to come! Also, let me know in the comments if you had this system or any memories with it. Thank you all!!

That system is underrated, though its biggest flaw is that it reused it original 2600's sound chip. It's audio was already outdated the moment it came out.
-
My list would be pretty different but some good stuff there regardless. Always good to see the 7800 get some love
-
The only thing that kills the 7800 is its sound, if only more games used the Pokey chip.
-
I never had this system but watching this makes me wanna get one.
-
This console was in the same generation as the Master System and NES?? No wonder Atari nearly went bankrupt.
-
Good selections if I say so myself! It's a shame the Atari 7800 never got the recognition it deserved!
-
i would put space invaders but good list anyway.... ty

Pole position II sounds just like Enduro......Upgraded the graphics, but not the audio....😁😁 I did love the old music on Dig Dug though...It sounded like I was at a circus.

I had a 2600 and a NES as kid. This 7800 is super shit. The sound is awful seems it cannot do more than 1 channel. Graphics seem inferior than the NES as well. But it is all about the sound.
