10 Unique, Cheap Games for the Atari 7800 and Atari 2600+

Interested in collecting for the Atari 7800 ProSystem (or the Atari 2600+)? If so, the 7800 offers many affordable, excellent arcade ports such as Donkey Kong, Ms. Pac-Man, and Joust.

But beyond superb arcade titles, what else does the 7800 offer, and won’t drain your paycheck?

Here are 10 unique, affordable 7800 games, chosen for gameplay, price, and relative exclusivity. Many 7800 titles were ported from computer games, making the titles far less common on video game consoles.

1. Pole Position II

Yup, Pole Position II kicks off this lineup.

Here’s why. As the pack-in game for the 7800, Pole Position II is the cheapest cart you’ll find. Plus, Pole Position II is available on very few formats, making a 7800 copy an obvious choice. Play it alongside the original Pole Position and pick your favorite!

Pros & Cons: Pole Position II features multiple races with varied backgrounds. However, this game does little to showcase the potential of the 7800.
