etschuetz Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 Not sure if anyone knew about the Coleco.com website. It wasn't anything "really special" but a marketing site for the hand held Coleco systems that were supposed to be sold exclusively through Target a few years ago. Well, I just went there to see if anything changed...it did. The site is dead. Anyone aware of this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FYI, colecovision.com looks to be for sale as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would say that if there is ANYONE that wants to start a good "ColecoAge" site (hint hint), snatch up those URL's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

etschuetz Posted July 1, 2009 Author Share Posted July 1, 2009 How were those little handhelds? Were they any good? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
etschuetz Posted July 13, 2009 Author Share Posted July 13, 2009 Interestingly as I said the Coleco site was down, it is now back up with the original page. Seeing as I was not the only one that saw it, I know it wasn't a system error on my side. So, anyway, I wonder what happened. Probably just a simple server outage? Now, if only the coleco.com url had something more than those handheld games they are now selling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
etschuetz Posted July 13, 2009 Author Share Posted July 13, 2009 Speaking of Coleco, did an ebay search and found an ebay "shop" that is selling the 20-in-1 Sega Coleco hand held. This guy has it listed as...ready....$100 USED! These are not that old...and not very technically special. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
