Anyone here remember the old games consoles such as the Atari 7800?

My first console as a kid. Hours of game play fun. The graphics weren't what was important, it was the enjoyment of the game

Didn't the 7800 have a lot better graphics than the 2600? If that's the case then how come the 2600 was more popular?

@Punches Don't know about that. Never had the 2600. The graphics were the same if not similar I'm told. The 7800 came after.

@shanec I was looking it up and it looks like the 7800 Graphics were better than the 2600. Compared to what they have today, both of them look pretty lousy but back then there was this huge difference. The 2600 honestly probably had the worst graphics of any gaming console ever released. I'm just judging the 7800 on what I was looking at on google.

@Punches Oh I wouldn't know. I was only about 8 when I had the 7800 lol, the graphics weren't good on any console then. But enjoyable.
