Super Dodgeball looks like what they played in gym class at River City High.

Not a real 64bit console with 64bit graphics

Other addictive NES games for me was Excitebike, Kung fu, Gyromite

Silent Service was a fun little game. It's a lethal version of hide n seek. I mostly pllayed it 30 years ago. It doesn't hold up much today. Konami was the best publisher outside of Nintendo, with Capcom not far behind.

Bebe's Kids looks like a total ripoff of The Simpsons arcade game lol

No Pole Position? Disappointing!

I feel like people complaining about Baby Mario's realistic crying effect is more of a meme than a legitimate complaint. I remember being impressed when the game came out because he sounded like an actual baby.

FIFTEEN YEARS ? You missed the Joystick magazine issue

How we do connect to one TV.😊

I don't care what anyone says , Atari 2600 Pac man is STILL one of my favorite games.

Dragon is a great game but not a lot of people like it. I could beat everyone except the last boss who is very cheap. Also in Super Nintendo games it feels like they trade resolution for special effects like transparency. But yeah Megadrive games look sharper side by side

Great vid...but no Rygar? Ninja Gaiden? Crystalis? Megaman/2/3?

The Snes Alien 3 does have a map it's shown when you choose your mission

while i enjoyed the SNES Aladdin..it was one of the few games i could beat without getting hit once...BUT...the genesis version was just better. mostly due to animation, sound, and secrets...but the sega version was the closest i'd ever seen to a game that looked like a cartoon

I liked the Atari for two reasons: 1. Combat - vastly superior gameplay on Atari 2. The Atari joystick was far more comfortable to hold and have long gaming sessions vs. intellivision gamepad where not only was the controller awkward and imprecise, but also had this annoying telephone receiver coil cord you had constantly tugging at your controller. 3. Asrtro{bash,smash}: Paddle support made the 2600 version vastly superior IMHO gameplay trumps graphics. Besides, I had a Commie 64, so for home translations of arcade games I had a better platform which just happened to use Atari controllers. :)

Quick question - have you done the beta 2600+ update? Cheers.

The 1994 3 button controller has 6 button dpad (4 versions of thr genesis 3 button controller 1988 dpad stiff 1994 dpad is awesome)

Oh, I've played Atari games with a Sega Genesis controller since the 90s....the D-pad just works better than the joystick for certain games, and the Genesis controller is more comfortable and ergonomic overall. Now, the ultimate challenge is to find a friend to play either Mortal Kombat or MK II on Sega Genesis, and beat them using an Atari controller. This means you will only be able to perform low kicks/foot sweeps (unless you're Raiden and do supermans, or Johnny Cage and use shadow kicks), and only a couple fatalities will work. it makes for an interesting handicap!

Ordered one of these from AtariAge over a year ago and still haven't seen it. Had I known the wait was going to be this long, I never would have ordered it.

plug n play comes from computers with new hardware you can just drop in and run the drivers and not have to fuck around with config.sys or anything

I should get one of these. I wpuld much rather use the Genesis controllers over the European style control pad.

@4:08 hilarious! 😂😂😂

That huge controller is awesome!!

The purpose of this device is for playing 2-button 7800 games with a Genesis or SMS pad. Sega pads aren’t wired properly to use both buttons. In addition the wireless Genesis pad on the 2600+ didn’t work for me. (See my 2600+ review when I had to press the button just to move.)

Im confused. Ive been using Genesis controllers for years on my Atari 2600. No adapter is required. If the same rules apply to the 7800 since its backwards compatible with 2600 that means this adapter is a $24 scam that does nothing aside from making the cord a bit longer😄

Looks like a cool gizmo to me!

Are you going to do a bespoke episode on your thoughts on emulation? My gaming collection sits on a shelf now, as I play classic games on my CRT through SBCs (Pi3B+, XU4, Rockchip based systems) with high quality controllers like the FANTASTIC 8bitdo SN30. It's so much more convenient to have all of the libraries at my fingertips, and even FPGA systems don't match modern emulation performance and features. I don't think the mini systems count, either, sound and input lag on every one I've tried makes serious gaming on them an unacceptable experience. I'd be glad to share my curated ROM collection and software for the above-mentioned platforms, if you're at all curious. Thank you as always for the great content :)

I still don’t know- but I’m here - 😊- you got a like and full watch from me. Hopefully stuff will click someday lol😂 ended at 14:51

As you noted, the Mega-7800 is loose on the 2600+. I added a very cheap DB9 coupler to the 2600+ to improve the reliability of the connection.

What a nice hack! Hope you enjoy it!

Sega controllers work on Atari systems as is.

I'd just program an Arduino. Much cheaper and customizable.

great video!

2:08 Oh and small correction - the Light Phaser was a Master System light gun, not a Genesis light gun.

The Mega 7800 adapter is wonderful for playing 7800 games with Sega Master System controllers. The Master System controller has no microcontroller chip. It's just direct wires going to each of the 9 pins. As such, it's super easy to build a real microswitch joystick and two buttons into a project box and have it work on a real Sega Master System and with the Mega 7800, also a real 7800 and 2600, C64 etc. The 7800 has some really great games and deserves a good controller to play over the Pro-Line and now increasingly rare and expensive Europad that still isn't as good as an actual Master System controller.

Yes..if you can't get the 7800 europad, use a Genesis controller. You don't need adaptor for a 2600...idk about the 7800

BRING YOUR ATARI SYSTEM BACK TO LIFE IN A SPECTACULAR WAY. Google JOHNNY VINCENTO get HOW TO MAKE YOUR OWN TABLETOP ARCADE for atari 2600 5200 7800 COLECOVISION AND INTELLIVISION systems

Lifeforce!! I used to olay the crap out of that and completely forgot about it until just now. Sweet.

Abou Cheryl the Goddess. If Male Characters can walk around 1/2 nakid proud of their Bodies Female characters should be able to do the same 😊

For Choplifter (7:42) on the C=64, you have a hacked version of some sort that increases the difficulty of the game enormously. Regardless, the NES version is certainly better. I remember this game on the C=64, and blowing up tanks was pretty easy. Most of the time you got killed, it was because you waited too long on the ground trying to collect POWs.

Nice channel especially the homebrew Nes video I just subbed you keep up the awesome work 👍

This was a great comparison video dude! The gameplay is most definitely the most important. Atari held its own for so long.

I still have my 2 Jagwaaaaars

Give me a break with some of these Atari ties and wins…you have a hard-on for the 2600.

I liked Ice Hockey by Activision on Atari👍

Am I the only one? Or you sound the snes drunk speaking?

The game wasnt bad. The player could actually beat the game. Only a handful of Atari games had endings. The movie was the biggest hollywood blockbuster ever until Titanic 15 years later. Fun times😊

Clearly the NES has the upper hand in this battle, still the Atari most definitely has its use as it was present before the NES was released eh guys 🙂👍🏻
