7800 Brotherhood


MAC-42

Recommended Posts

The 5200 guys have their--I mean, our--brotherhood. The Intellivision guys have theirs. But do we have a 7800 Brotherhood? I haven't seen one.

 

Well, there should be one.

 

Who's with me?

Count me in. We should challange the other brotherhoods to something. Like a contest to see who has the best system (us), the best controller (us), the best members (us), or the hardest system to move without a forklift (5200).

What if one is a member of multiple brotherhoods?

 

The 7800 has a better graphics processor and better capabilities via cartridge capacities but the 5200 is a better quality console, has better cartridges [ZIF slot! And grips on the carts], 4 controller ports [on most], a larger game library, and when they work, better controllers.

 

I still like the 7800; it should've won the war against the NES but to have done so would've required Atari Inc surviving because Atari Corp obviously wasn't up to the challenge.

And better stock sound via POKEY!

 

Man, GCC was dumb not to make space on the mobo for the POKEY, and Warner was stupid to trust that opportunistic company when they stated there was no space for it.
