I have this game one of my favs as well, sorry couldn't be part of the 2600 more was occupied with other stuff

Joust is pretty sweet on 7800!  

How do you fix them?
 
 
Here's the Top 5 games voted on by 7800 users (plus 5 honorable mentions)

 
I also did a whole podcast covering the best and worst with a lot of feedback, but warning, it's a long one:

I want to say that it was fun to fix it.  If anyone else needs help with broken console buttons on the 7800, I can help.  They can be fixed without replacement. 
 
Enjoy it.  We have a generous group here...Greenween donated all that.  It's the great spirit of Atari.io in action. 

Ok first off i want to give a HUGE shoutout/thankyou to both Rick and Greenween. Greenween had a 7800 with i believe a broken power button and Rick fixed it and they offered it to me. I am beyond happy right now.
 
So with all that what are games that i must be on the look out for.
Games i know to look for:
Ms pacman
Dig dug
Xevious
Galaga
Centipede

I have this game for the 7800, but I honestly don't think I've played it more than twice. Time to get on it!

Haha you're welcome! That's what we're for! 

Right on, greenween!

Funny story. After seeing this was the game for the month, I found out I sold a copy of Xevious on eBay!
 
Thanks for helping me make some sales Justin!

If that doesn't work Adobe does have a free encoder for live feeds that might work as it records to your computer's hard drive.  RickR shared links to some free video editing software in another post (I'll go look for it).  One of those programs I tried out, liked, and remember that it did actually capture screens very well.  I'll go find it right quick.

I know, I watched D&D too.  But I went Dragon's Lair.  Because it doesn't have a cute baby unicorn.  Sorry, I think you all know I'm a heartless bastard. 

Willie Ames AND Donny Most!  Heck yeah

D & D all the way!!! Still watch it!! One of my favorite memories from the 80's.
