Shroo-man Posted January 14, 2008 Share Posted January 14, 2008 why do my atari 7800 games look like this? as opposed to the screenshots I see on the internet... like this one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mimo Posted January 14, 2008 Share Posted January 14, 2008 What do you think is wrong with your graphics? The screen shot on the interweb is probably from an emulator so may not have correct colours, the image will also be a lot sharper than using RF input to a TV. If you want clearer graphics you will have to do an AV or S-video mod Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rybags Posted January 14, 2008 Share Posted January 14, 2008 Plus, I guess you're running a PAL system. For some reason, Atari never seemed to get the hang of PAL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nathanallan Posted January 14, 2008 Share Posted January 14, 2008 I'd try a different TV, yeah. Or do the mod, as suggested above. Nathan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Mitch Posted January 14, 2008 Share Posted January 14, 2008 If you're in PAL land you can also try to find a SCART 7800, that will greatly improve your picture quality. Mitch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
