Tony Montana Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 (edited) My 7800 arrived today ! Been waiting for about a week, bought from ebay. It's in great condition and works 100%. Very happy with it and i am impressed with it overall. Got some games with it and i've bought a few over the past few days. Let the collection commence ! Sorry, just had to tell someone lol Edited February 8, 2008 by Tony Montana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dauber Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 Hey, no need for the "sorry" -- I think everybody here was excited to get the 7800, whether it was back in '87 or now...I know I was thrilled to pieces when mine arrived in 2006...it's a great system.... Now, make sure you get Pac-Man Collection! and Food Fight, and you're all set! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doctorclu Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 Man looking at that picture just reminds me of when I saw the 7800 the first time it was released at Toys R Us in like 1985. I remember thinking.. whoa. Then it poofed, and just when I thought I was imaging things, it reappeared years later. Atari from about 1987 onwards till about 1999 was really confusing for me. But the 7800 was just awesome, and those D pads... interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DracIsBack Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 Thanks for the pic. I've never seen a 7800 box from the UK before. I'd love to see scans of the sides and back if people have them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davyK Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 (edited) Nice to see all the packaging again. I got my 7800 years ago brand new and everything was pristine but the box literally fell apart. I dumped it which was a bit silly of me. A friend broke one of the mini joysticks that screw into the centre of the dpad during a game of Demon Attack and the other one went missing. They weren't that good so it was no loss.
