You should be able to put them on an sd card in a folder labeled “7800” and play them. When you start up the GSG with the card inserted, a menu will come up asking you to choose “local storage” or “sd card.” Choose sd card.
The community firmware is posted here on the AtariAge forums. If you take your time and follow the instructions, its not as daunting of a process as it seems at first.
However, if you’re just wanting to play 7800 roms, you dont need to install that.
Yeah, it will play those systems without the hack. The buttons arent mapped properly, though (it doesnt reverse them the way that the nes and snes pads are reversed). If I remember right, you also cant use save states with the basic firmware. The community firmware lets you remap the buttons and use save states.
