    The Atari 7800 Pro System

    S5E16: "Ready to Relaunch: The Atari 7800 Pro System as a document of the mid 1980s"In 1986 American video game pioneer Atari responded to the growing popularity of Nintendo by introducing their 7800 machine, a game system with graphics and (some) games that rivaled the NES, but never quite took.  On this episode my guest Jason and I trade stories of how we got our 7800s, the features and games we liked most, and how cool we think its metallic look is.  We also go over, however, the shortcomings of Atari's attempt at relaunching their dominance of the market, and how Nintendo was able to surge ahead by decade's end.#history #popculture #videogames #gaming #videogamehistory #atari #atari7800
