Test7800
Test7800 is an experimental Atari 7800 emulator for playing many available 7800 ROM files. It supports flat .a78 ROMs, several bankswitching SuperGame ROMs, and ELF cartridges with an embedded ARM chip. Its emulation includes 6502, TIA, RIOT, and ARM components taken from Gopher2600; the MARIA implementation is new to this project. POKEY and many of its layouts are supported. Players can use a keyboard or gamepad, with a mouse for paddle and trackball input. QuadTari mode supports up to four joystick players, with assignments configurable through -players. An optional overlay displays MARIA state, and the -tv option selects PAL instead of the default NTSC BIOS. Test7800 is available for Linux, macOS, the web, and Windows, and is published under GPL-3.0. The project describes itself as incomplete: important features are missing, and some conglomerate cartridge hardware configurations are not emulated. Its basic command-line debugger lacks many features, and performance was not a design focus. Occasional nightly builds are distributed as prereleases.
