Spectravision produced a large number of 2600 titles and was doing quite well
until the Crash. Perhaps best known for producing the mail order-only game Chase
the Chuckwagon, Spectravision had a decent lineup including many rare games
that are sought after today such as Bumper
Bash and Mangia.
Three games were sold exclusively through the Columbia House Record Club - Bumper
Bash, Gas Hog, and Mangia. These titles may have been sold in Canadian stores
since they seem to be more available in that part of the continent. Spectravision
was also the only company to deliver a keyboard add-on for the 2600, the Compumate,
although many had made similar promises, including Atari. Spectravision is one
of the few 2600 era companies still in business today, although they're now
known as Spectra Video. You can visit their website at www.spectravideo.com.View Catalogs Produced By Spectravision |
