Sayton Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 When I play my 7800 only one game comes to mind: Ms. Pac-Man. I can't understand why! I recently got Food Fight and enjoyed that for a while. But after a bit, I played Dig-Dug and Galaga for a short bit then got right back into Ms. Pac-Man. I don't play it cause I'm good. I'm not. It's just so freaking addictive. I've got that Ms. Pac-Man fever! Argh! Oh well, I guess this is why she'll always be the number 1 video game lady! (Well, in my book at least!)

joeybastard Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 Ms. P is a seductress all right but my main 7800 game is Asteroids. I can't get enough of 7800 Asteroids. I play until my hands are killing me. I started building an all button controller ala the arcade setup for it. After Asteroids for me it's Tower Toppler. That's another one I can't seem to put down until I've played it a few hundred times in a sitting. It doesn't help that I suck at it so for every 100 tries I might get to the next tower.

8th lutz Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 Ms. Pac-Man is addiciting for a 7800, but My main game is Galaga. I Can't stop playing that game if was in the arcade, or the 7800. I always want to get to the next stage. Same thing happens to me in Dig Dug. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadow460 Posted December 1, 2005 Share Posted December 1, 2005 My fix comes from Asteroids, Mean 18, or Meltdown. Recently I've had a hankering to play Enemy Zero. Hmmm, should we try to port this to the 7800!? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keilbaca Posted December 1, 2005 Share Posted December 1, 2005 my main game I play on the 7800 is Dig Dug. Ms. Pac is a 2nd choice, although I prefer the hack pacmanplus did, the fast version of her. Makes for a much more enjoyable game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oesii Posted December 1, 2005 Share Posted December 1, 2005 (edited) I'm with Joey, Asteroids is usually the first game I fire up on the CC2 when I'm down for a 7800 session. Xevious, Ballblazer, and Ms. Pac are close though. Edited December 1, 2005 by oesii Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Thag Posted December 1, 2005 Share Posted December 1, 2005 Xevious is my favorite, followed by Desert Falcon. Guess I'm a shooter guy. I love Ms Pac Man though. Great Port. Asteroids plays well, but I would rather play Minestorm on my Vectrex instead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Feralstorm Posted December 1, 2005 Share Posted December 1, 2005 Ms. Pac, Dig Dug, Robotron, and Food Fight are my most-played quartet of 7800 games. I live for the Instant Replay! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JagFan422 Posted December 1, 2005 Share Posted December 1, 2005 i'm so sick of ms.pacman, i think i got 8 versions on all systems it came out for. Though i must say the 5200 version is my favorite. But the game that gets the most play time on my 7800 is Rampage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sayton Posted December 2, 2005 Author Share Posted December 2, 2005 I don't know if I'll ever truly get sick of Ms. Pac-Man. I may not want to play it for a while, but I'll come back to it. Also, I've been playing alot of Food Fight. Awesome game! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmmm, should we try to port this to the 7800!? 974509[/snapback] Enemy Zero? I had that with my Saturn for awhile, but when I sold it I got rid of it. I wish I could find it again. I do have the PC version though, but the fact remains that was such a unique game. And on my Atari 7800, I've been playing a bit of Double Dragon, trying to master the awkward controls.

Lastblade Posted December 2, 2005 Share Posted December 2, 2005 Xevious, Desert Falcon, Robotron 2084 and Food Fight are my guilty pleasures on the 7800. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sukotsu9 Posted December 6, 2005 Share Posted December 6, 2005 Ms. Pac: It's the feel of the game; that's why everyone says it's such a great arcade port. As for my household, Galaga takes the clock. I've burned entire evenings only playing that game then thinking "damn, there was something else I was wanting to play...!". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
REv9k Posted December 6, 2005 Share Posted December 6, 2005 It was the music for me. It was really the first game that effectively used music, and the music is very catchy!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bedouin Posted December 6, 2005 Share Posted December 6, 2005 When I owned the 7800 Food Fight was a favorite, with Ms. Pac Man probably being second. My favorite version of Galaga is actually Galaga '99 on TG16, even more so than the Galaga '98 arcade game. I think it has a lot to do with which version you played most frequently, which is why I enjoy Shinobi on my SMS more than the arcade version.

Neat effect. My other "fix" game is Xevious, which I actually like better than the Arcade version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darklord1977 Posted March 25, 2006 Share Posted March 25, 2006 yeah, galaga is the best it brings back fond memories... but ms p is somrthing else..the graphics are spectacular. its fast! ..frantic..and it never gets old..its a winner all around! its the best port of the beloved arcade game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
desiv Posted March 25, 2006 Share Posted March 25, 2006 I gotta go with the headline here. Ms P. I just keep coming back to that one. Even the Arcade machine downstairs is basically a Ms Pacman machine. I don't know why, she just is arcade goodness to me. :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
