opcode Posted January 4, 2007 Share Posted January 4, 2007 Hi guys, I just moved from Brazil to the US, and I am temporarily living in a hotel in Westborough, MA till I can find a place, probably in Franklin. Well, I think I already know some of you (by name at least). My name is Eduardo Mello, aka opcode, and besides being a retro game collector, I also program games for the ColecoVision. Well, I would love to be a member of NECG and attend the next meeting. I think I could contribute bringing some work-in-progress CV projects, as well as some MSX stuff.

128bytes Posted January 4, 2007 Share Posted January 4, 2007 Welcome to the US, opcode! The Boston metropolitan area has a large and growing Brazilian population, and lots of Brazilian restaurants and bakeries are near Westborough in Framingham or Milford if you are homesick for Brazil, as you may be aware!

chadtower Posted January 4, 2007 Share Posted January 4, 2007 I used to work in Framingham... driving through downtown was one Brazillian flag after another. Good place for you to settle. I think I may actually own at least one of your games. Great stuff. Welcome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
opcode Posted January 4, 2007 Author Share Posted January 4, 2007 Thanks for all the info guys! To be honest one doesn't need more than a few hours to realize this area is crowded with Brazilians. I mean, every public place I go, I can always find someone speaking Portuguese... Chad, indeed I remember you. BTW, probably I will bring my prototype version of the Opgrade Module for the CV to the next NECG meeting. Depending on the exact date, I can even demo some stuff, like the OM version of Pac-Man Collection. And if our host doesn't mind, I would love to organize a tournament of Konami's Ping-Pong. That's a really fun head-to-head game, and the winner gets a free Opcode game. Eduardo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chadtower Posted January 5, 2007 Share Posted January 5, 2007 Trust me, the host won't mind. In fact that will probably make him twitch in the corner from happiness. I'd love to see that proto module. My hardware-fu is about 50x stronger than it was when you started working on that thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chadtower Posted February 2, 2007 Share Posted February 2, 2007 I just looked through your website for the first time in quite a while... wow that's some pant wetting Coleco goodness! I think it's time to buy some of those titles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chadtower Posted February 5, 2007 Share Posted February 5, 2007 Good, because I still can't find where they can be purchased. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keir Posted February 12, 2007 Share Posted February 12, 2007 Hey Eduardo! I bought Space Invaders Collection from you a long time ago. I hope to see you at the next meet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
