Hopefully you are using the 7800 joypads or a third party joystick to play those games. Those original 7800 joysticks are painful on the hands!

Nope... converted some Radica sticks a few years back...

(It's funny, my son is 5 there and he's 9 now so he just got a kick seeing this picture again.)

Here's the original AtariAge page from that time...

Great stick to play 7800 and 2600 games.

Cool! Now I need to hunt down some of those Radica games to convert

This whole discussion brought back some fond memories of first getting into the hobby. My collecting journey began with the Famous Brand Electronics 7800 blowout deal back in 1995. A brand new 7800 and 40 shrinkwrapped games for $69 plus shipping -- couldn't beat that!. That deal started me on the road to rabidly collecting classic home video games and eventually into arcade machines.
