From what I understand from a YouTube video I watched, the 7800 could have been better than the NES if Atari had just installed more RAM as I believe it had better sound capability and also better video capability that was bottlenecked by the amount of RAM. Quote:
I rarely play it though. What I'd love to do is find a vector monitor, a vector generator and get vector MAME up and running so that I can play the vector arcade games. Thing is the vector arcade games and the Vectrex had 3D graphics long before any console, raster arcade game and computer would be powerful enough for 3D graphics.

One 5200 cartridge that took good advantage of the analog joysticks was RealSports Baseball, in which you could "swing" your bat different ways (including bunting) by choosing the motion of the joystick. That cartridge was also very cool for including voice sounds in about the same era as when the Mattel Intellivision required an outboard adapter to achieve that.

The 2600 and 7800 used regular joysticks.
