CV Gus Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 How could I have left out Star Raiders, Defender, and Robotron: 2084? The ability to stand still and fire with one controller, the explosions, and the sound are advantages over the 7800 version (which is really good). FYI, the 7800 also allows you to play Robotron with either one or two controllers. Mitch You cannot stand still and fire with one controller in the 7800 version; you can with the 5200 version.

Master Phruby Posted April 23, 2012 Share Posted April 23, 2012 (edited) I perfer the XEGS. I can play the same exact games as the 5200 but in a nice small cartridge and I get a keyboard. Still I need one to complete my Atari console collection. Edited April 23, 2012 by Master Phruby Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Master Phruby Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 I bet you could gut the XEGS and put it inside the 5200. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jetset Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 I bet you could gut the XEGS and put it inside the 5200. The XEGS would fit inside a 5200 without gutting it. Like a Carrying case... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Cafeman Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 5200 looked better on shag rug. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fernando marrin Posted May 4, 2012 Share Posted May 4, 2012 i think my love for the system comes from the " Non-Emulatable" experience i mean , if i don't wan't to set up my 2600, 8bit or 7800 i can have a quick fix on the wii with their original controllers and perfect emulation but it can't be done with the supersystem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sqoon Posted May 5, 2012 Share Posted May 5, 2012 I love the 5200 trak ball. Centipede and Missile Command with the trak ball on 5200 are as close to the arcade as you are going to get. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
