Meltdown and dig dug.

Not too bad, but you'll need a light gun for Meltdown. You can either find the one that came with the Atari XEGS or you can rewire a Sega Light Phaser.

Yes, really. A couple of playable prototypes were unearthed and patched to work on a standard 7800. they are:

http://www.atariprotos.com/7800/software/plutos/plutos.htm


5200 is where i stopped on the Atari, but with the looks of those shooters not bad at all, and them being prototypes its even cooler.
hmm… got me thinking, im going to pull out the old 2600 and see what shooters i have in my pile o' games... just for some old time gooooodness :D

I have no xegs or a ms light phaser...may have a look around ebay when the 7800 hits my shores!
