Which 2600 games don't work on the 7800?

[RangerG]

I just found Miner2049er for the 2600, but it doesn't seem to fit in my 7800? Also, RobotTank doesn't seem to work. I know there is a list somewhere of 2600 games that don't work on the 7800. Where is it? THANKS - RG

The cart/7800 series compatibility list is into the 7800 FAQ

Depending on which version 7800 you are using, various 2600 games may or may not work. Chad Schell has a page describing a modification you can make to some 7800's that will increase compatiblity with 2600 games. 7800 Compatibility mod

 

Also, some 2600 games don't work because they don't fit into the cart slot properly. For those games I use the 7800 High Score cartridge and it fix's the problem in most cases.

I had the same problem with my Miner cart- the prongs inside the cart are too long- you need to shorted them a little with a nail clipper or file, and then the game will fit in just fine!
