  1. As I type this I'm thinking - stay on the sidelines and just read a ton as usual and don't reply...

     

    sigh here goes...

     

    Eduardo / Todd...

     

     

    I've dealt with both of you and have always received great results...

     

    I've met both of you and you are outstanding individuals - different but great

     

    I realize that you two have had issues in the past but - please... in the future - keep it to yourselves via PM's

     

    Ed - make great games and expansion units + whatever

     

    Todd - keep our units running and compatible with modern 'displays' + whatever

     

     

    This IS a SMALL community of gamers who like/love there Colecovisions - there ARE issues - lets move forward

     

     

    Thanks

  2.  

    With all due respect, I would be happy to get these boxes :D

     

    Really people stills throws boxes into the bin? :o

     

     

    Well I don't throw the box away... but it does get stored (in a bigger box) and ONLY sees the light of day when I put another EXPENSIVE box into the bigger box.

     

    Let's see - '$35' for a cart only release or '$50' for a cart and box... after my 10 cart only purchases I have 10 games to play... the same money gets you only 7 with 7 pretty boxes up on a display shelf. IMHO - I'd rather play the 10 games. But if the games sellers insist on including a box - well I want the game.... I do LOVE my Coleco :D

     

    On one level I feel in 'last' place... The completists drool over getting the complete package and are happy.... on the other far end those that wait and wait and wait - get the ROM image usually for free and are happy. Me - I've got a bunch of money tied up in boxes.... (((Anybody want to buy 10 homebrew boxes for $750? :grin: :grin: :grin: FREE SHIPPING)))

     

    (Don't get me wrong - this stuff is high quality and nice... but in the long run - I want 10 games not 7! )

  3. So I've started the process on unloading 100+ boxes from my move and the homebrews were one of the first to get put on the shelves.....here we go!

     

    Wait, that first one doesn't look right?!?!? :P

     

    Ah yes, the second pic is more like it, and the third pic is just for Rev, I believe I owe him that. :-D

     

     

     

     

     

    First one looks right to me!!! If you want to eliminate some items from it (OPCODE Protos... I have 1 or 2 20 dollar bills laying around!! ;-) ) contact me!

     

    Although I'm not an Intellivision collecter per se... wish I had the cash to buy some of these homebrews in the past. Nice Stuff!

  4. Sweet! - mine arrived today.

     

    It has replaced Lode Runner as my current game to play (although not for long - sorry Daniel - ;-) it is an interesting game! )

     

    Now if I can get (team pixelboy?) to publish (or anyone else ;-) ) Spelunker

     

     

    Then I can pass on - knowing that my favorite games (duh - Lode Runner / Spelunker) are preserved! He-He.

     

     

     

    Thanks Luc / J-F / Tobie / OpCode - gads this list is getting long!!!

     

     

     

    COLECOVISION - LIVE LONG AND PROSPER! Yikes - geeky of me!

  5. Thanks Daniel for the update.

     

    Sometimes a simple posting like this is very helpful when you have ordered something and haven't heard anything for a few days/weeks/longer

    (Heck I paid for an item 2 years ago and the publisher has kept in contact with those waiting with update... extreme perhaps but the key is communication)

     

     

    Dale - work/family is a priority - take care of those first. We can enjoy Daniels work a little further down the road.


  6. Looks like I spoke too soon. Paypal sent me an e-mail this afternoon stating that my account was back to normal, but when I logged on my Paypal account earlier tonight, my account was still locked down, and they stated that there was "a problem" with the documentation I sent them, without stating the nature of this problem. So now I have to contact Paypal again and TRY to get answers which are not automated B.S..

     

    What a load of crap!!! :mad:

     

    HAH! - I knew you were evil :grin: ! Evil bad Pixelboy :P LOL!

     

    How dare you bring Coleco goodies to the masses..

     

     

     

    I'd better shut up - have had not problems with PayPal forever (nor Pixelboy)!!!

     

     

    Good luck with PayPal!!! don't want Christmas (!) to be delayed! ;) ;) ;)


  7. Let me start off by saying I greatly respect the work that everyone has done making homebrew games for the ColecoVision. I love it, and I love everyones dedication to my favorite 80's console. I have done what I can to promote every game on my youtube channel and I will continue to do so in any way I can. I honestly wish I had the money to buy every game everyone creates but I have to be financially sound in my decisions to purchase games which leads to my question.

     

    There are many games that I have missed out on that I would really like to purchase, but they are no longer avalable. It seems to me that most games sell out in a short amount of time due to limited quantity. Granted no one knows if the games will sell out, but it seems most do. Is the demand increasing for homebrew games? And if so, is it possible to maybe increase the total numbers of games produced?

     

    I am a big fan of everyones work and I will do anything I can to support all of you in any way I can.

     

    I don't know all the answers, so I am just asking.

    I TRY to buy everything that is released ... but lately that is not possible (some items are 'not worth the $$ - when $ is tight' - IMO). It's either I can't afford a game at the moment or IF I don't check online daily I miss out on an item :-( I know S--- happens.

     

    I DO appreciate those publishing games and programming them... but I have to admit this reminds me a lot of the 83-4 time frame... a lot of stuff coming out and can everyone buy the stuff (I have nightmares of Collectorvision/Team Pixelboy and Opcode games burying dozens of unpurchased carts in landfills! :) )

     

    It seems to me that everything that comes down the road is published regardless of the quality/interest for the game.

     

     

    If this is 'harsh' - sorry - just my opinion.

  8. Cool - I'll take cart 166... :-D Thank you for moving me to #80.

     

    It has been decided!

    The Pong/Computer Space will be limited to 150 copies only!! (If we ever reach that number anyway)

    What it means is, whatever happen, there will be no more than 150 copies produced/available!

    In October 30th, if we are at let's say: 125, then the Boxset will be limited to 125 copies

    If 90, then no more than 90 copies will be produced... And so on....


  9. I got my Super Sketch like new for 600 bucks, at start I thought it was a little expensive but then I thought that really there was no place to get it, so I bought it.

     

    Now that I see how are things, well it was a great offer :)

     

     

     

    $600!

     

    Wow just wow!

     

    I thought I paid too much when I got my boxed complete (at least I think it is...) version for like $150 (that was in 1999 tho...). People who know I collect old video games think I'm nuts for paying 30-40 for 'those old games'.

  10. post-16925-0-16808200-1379021339_thumb.jpgThis is worth up to $750! Holy S--- Batman.

     

    Gads I bought this in a collection around 98-99 (96 different games as I recall - with a boxed Jungle Hunt that I let go (wish I hadn't now...).

     

     

    I probably check to make sure tha game worked and then put it away 15 years ago...

     

     


  11. POO! not my exact words... ;-) .

     

    Take the kid to the college campus (500 miles away...) for a couple of days and miss out on the blue cartridge! (Please Maria - give me a chance! - or maybe not because then you get a dozen more orders! ;-) ).

     

    Oh well - I'll take a black cart Daniel.
