 The original run of the 7800, which had to cease production later that year due to contractual disputes. Sold only in southern California at first. Upon the 1986 relaunch, all overstock from the 1984 run was sold, but it is unknown if sales were still limited to California or not. The only noteworthy difference to the later run, is the presence of an unused expansion port on the left side. The original run of the 7800, which had to cease production later that year due to contractual disputes.

 Outside of a minor motherboard change, this Atari 7800 version has no expansion port anymore. However, there is an indent located where the port used to be. This version may have a minor incompatibility with “Dark Chambers”, a 2600 game. Outside of a minor motherboard change, this Atari 7800 version has no expansion port anymore.

 The exact same as above, except either a small outline or nothing at all replaces the expansion port indent. Aforementioned “Dark Chambers” defect may not exist, however, games using FE-bank switching may be incompatible instead (Centipede, Kool-Aid Man, etc.) The exact same as above, except either a small outline or nothing at all replaces the expansion port indent.
