ApolloBoy Posted November 25, 2016 Share Posted November 25, 2016 I just bought a very early 7800 with the expansion port today, and as I've never owned one before I'm curious about the build quality on these models. Is the build quality just as bad as the later Atari Corp. models or is it slightly better? And is the cartridge port any different than later models?

towmater Posted November 26, 2016 Share Posted November 26, 2016 In my case the 7800 has expansion port and every major chip is socketed, so I don't see any "cheapness". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ApolloBoy Posted November 29, 2016 Author Share Posted November 29, 2016 Got mine in the mail sooner than expected. It's definitely got higher quality plastic, the texture is more noticeable and feels pretty solid compared to the later models. The motherboard looks to be of higher quality too and all the major chips are socketed so that's a big plus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
