Could u post a larger pic of the group? I'd love some of these covers for my Coleco DB.

Shouldn't this thread have started in 1983? It seems like Atari is always in some kind of mess.

glorious.

lol!!!! can u believe the amount of educational games released back then?? it's funny how they had to fool parents into buying a video game system with a useless category. studios wouldn't waste the time or money these days w/ that crap for consoles.

wtf?

I play emulators on an Imac G3, Mac OS 9.3. They seem to work better on the original G3, rather than running classic on my wife's G4. OS 9 is perfect for systems prior to 5th generation console emulators. (SNES and backwards) I'm old skool like that.

Thanks! It's good to commiserate w/ like minded gamers.

thanks for the info guys. i can't find many pics on coleconation, seems mostly to be a homebrew site as well as other nostalgia.

Hello all! my name is anthony and i'm a database programmer and video game fan since the 2600 (and Vectrex which still works). i'd love some recommendations of sites or otherwise to obtain decent box art and cart pics (prototype also) for the Colecovision so i can develop a sweet DB. anyone who wants a copy of the finished product is more than welcome to one. thanks in advance! anthony

i just started playing these on ColEm for Mac. the controls are garbage, but it gets the job done. whomever was programming for Coleco at that time deserves much respect. their arcade ports of titles like zaxxon, DK and spy hunter are astounding. unfortunately i never owned one, but i played a friend's as much as i could.
