Is the Sears Video Arcade II a 7800?

Someone told me that the Sears Video Arcade II was not compatible with 7800 carts. I always thought that it was just the Sears version of the 7800. Is it compatible? I have been hunting high and low for a 7800, and have a chance to get a Sears Video Arcade II, but I am worried that it wouldn't play 7800 carts. Is it 7800 compatible? If it isn't, what IS it?

The Sear's Video Arcade 2...is only similar to the 7800 in that it was build in the same basic case. The Sears Arcade 2 was nothing more than a 2600 in a newly designed and fancy case. Overseas in Japan the same case was used in the Atari 2600 there only it was known as the 2800.

 

In short. The Sears Arcade 2 is not compatible with 7800 games since it isn't even a 7800. However, the Sears Arcade 2 by itself might be considered more rare..and could fetch a trade for a 7800 I bet.

 

 

Hope this helps...
