Here is a link to a 7800 emulator's source:

http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/emu7800...rc.zip?download

and the emulator:

http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/emu7800...in.msi?download

The name of the emulator is EMU7800

Here is the official site: http://emu7800.sourceforge.net/

and it says most 2600 and 7800 titles work well  :D

Yes, but since there is source for an atari 7800 emulator it could be potentially ported to the xbox  :D .

just found this:
http://www.zophar.net/Files/v7800r12.zip

it is a dos based atari 7800 emulator so maybe it could be run on the xbox using one of the x86 pc emulators.

Zophar.net rule or xbox-scene rule? Where is the quote from?

and also I just mentioned the dos based emulator because I thought the xbox maybe able to run it. The EMU7800 emulator seems far better than the v7800 emulator and its source is available so it seems that would be the best candidate for an xbox port.

Yeah, still waiting for someone to do this.  The 7800 is basically a pumped up 2600 and it has some pretty decent arcade translations for it.
