EMU7800 offers classic video game nostalgia on demand! It emulates the Atari 7800 ProSystem video game console (c. 1987) that was also backward-compatible with the older and more popular Atari 2600 Video Computer System.

WHATS NEW—Port to the Windows Universal Application platform, unifying codebases across phone, PC, and beyond. An Android port is also available via Xamarin.

BASIC OPERATION—Several classic games are included to jump-start your experience. Many additional ROM files are recognizable by EMU7800; use the search icon on the title screen to import them. Game states and settings are always preserved by default. The selection screen will display a Paused icon when there is pre-existing game state for a particular title.

PERFORMANCE—EMU7800 will be able to run full speed on systems with the equivalent of a single 1.7 GHz CPU core. The frame rate will automatically adjust downward to maintain smoothness if necessary.

GAME CONTROLLERS—Up to four (4) Xbox 360 controllers are supported and should generally work as expected. USB adapters that facilitate use of the original Atari controllers are also supported (2600-daptor, 2600-daptor II, and Stelladaptor.) The keyboard and mouse are also usable for game control. Some specific tips:

- Use keys F1-F4 to direct the input to the respective player number
- Use the W key to swap input jacks, the Q key to swap P1/P2 paddles, the E key to swap P3/P4 paddles
- The right thumbstick on the first Xbox controller operates the Player Two joystick as there are a few single-player titles that leverage both joysticks together
- The X and Y buttons on Xbox 360 controllers will swap input jacks (same as W key)
- The left and right triggers operate the Game Select and Game Reset console switches respectively (also mapped to the S and R keys)
- Only mouse input is mapped to the Lightgun controller
- Number pad keys are mapped to the Atari Keypad controller
- The H key toggles the Heads Up Display (HUD) during gameplay where recognized controllers are shown
- Left and right fire buttons are mapped to the Z/X keys respectively

HUD—During gameplay, the settings icon at the upper left will activate the Heads Up Display (HUD). The top row of buttons emulates the hardware switches of the Atari console. Cycling the Power button will clear game state and settings for the current title. Touch screen game controls can be activated here; tap or click middle of the screen to adjust separation.
