My Arcade Atari Gamestation Pro Overview and Thoughts

Today we take a look at the My Arcade Atari Gamestation Pro and give some initial thoughts about the unit. It comes packed with over 200 games, but just under 140 of them are actual Atari stuff. You get games for the 2600, 5200, 7800, Arcade and some Piko Interactive license stuff for the Nes, Genesis or Mega Drive for those across the pond, Gameboy and a few arcade games from companies other than Atari. I haven't tested everything with the unit yet and the games will be listed below.

So if you want to add your own roms you'll want to source them off Google and make sure they have the following extensions for the following games. You'll want .a26 for 2600, .a52 for 5200, .a78 for 7800, .NES for Nintendo Entertainment System stuff, .bin for Genesis/Mega Drive games, and .GB for Game Boy stuff. People have also found ways to get Game Boy Advance and Master System games to work, but SNES doesn't seem to be on the unit. Also I find figuring out MAME and arcade roms to be a headache so I never messed with it, at least not yet. But there are certain games and rom packs that work too. Put your SD Card into your computer and make a "Games" folder on the main directory. You can NOT make sub folders or anything like that, so the games will show up on one massive list. I was also able to just rename the game files to get them to work on the Atari Gamestation Pro. So if they have .bin or something after you unzip them, you can literally just change the .bin to say, .a26 and they work.

The Atari Network has 3 goals (besides entertainment) that I hope embodies everything the channel does:
1. Bring awareness to Atari, especially the often ignored Tramiel and 7800 era
2. Make sure the hardworking people both new and old (from the old guard at Atari corp to the new developers keeping the 7800 alive) get the recognition that they deserve for their hard work
3. Preserve the history of Atari in the video game hobby so that it survives long after us
