Classic Game Room HD reviews the Atari 7800 gamepad controller for the Atari 7800 video game console. The Prosystem was not fortunate to get a pro level controller in North America.... however much of the rest of the world was very lucky and got this awesome Nintendo style game pad controller with two buttons and a digital thumb pad. The textured feel fits nicely into the hands and it plays games from the Atari 7800 and Atari 2600 with ease. I believe this is the controller that gamers in the UK, Europe and Australia received with their Ataris. Sucks for us, we got the dreated Atari 7800 US controller. Thie controller worked well for playing games like Xevious, Donkey Kong, Joust and Ms. Pac Man on the Atari 7800 Prosystem. You could also play 2600 titles like Enduro, Mario Bros., Combat and Adventure. Does not work on NES, PS3, Playstation 3, Xbox 360 or Wii.

  • @slayermate07 Classic Game Room reviews would be nothing without Stella.

  • "There was a little joystick thingy that you could screw into there." Yeah that sounds awesome!

  • @vittau no you love VIRAL DOG

  • That's right. Lay down and protest.

  • Earthquake happened 10 minutes ago in NJ!!

  • they must be less rare where i am ? or i just got lucky? cos I own two of these and they both still have the screw in thingy..the best part is i got them both really cheap!

  • @slayermate07 not really i had to skip the dog.

  • where did you get that?

  • I got one of those controllers (known as CX78 Proline) off of eBay for $39.99 (free shipping ftw) and yes, it does work with the US 7800! After using this controller, I too wonder why Atari didn't import this one here in the States as an alternative to the controllers we got. Heck, it might have helped its chances sales-wise.
