RSS Bot Posted June 15, 2010 Share Posted June 15, 2010 Ah yes, the Atari 7800... the poster child for "too little, too late". The 7800 had great promise when it was previewed in Electronic Games magazine back in '84, but the industry crash killed it before it even got out the door. By the time it was finally released several years later (to cash in on the success of the NES), nobody took notice, and nobody wanted to take a chance developing titles for it. The 7800's miniscule library eventually was the death knell for the system, at least as far as most people were concerned... But now there's an active homebrew community for the 7800, and we're starting to see some of the potential titles we missed out on... Space Invaders 4/5... http://www.atariage.com/forums/blog/118/entry-7134-homebreviews-part-32/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
