    Coleco Envy

    15 to 40 games a YEAR!? it's worse than I thought !!

    Yeah, I really think the abundance of easily ported MSX / SG-1000 games make it relatively easy to pump out decent software quickly.

    Anything is great! I've been keeping an eye on these for a while. torn between removing original labels to put these on though, even though they are nicer.

    And the Coleco pack in controller is Garbage! (hides Pro-line behind back.)

    Yes, the Coleco sucking a fat one is part of the problem

    I hope nobody takes my post as an attack on the current community at all, I'm very thankfull for all the hard work from all the great people we have.

    Thankful for what we have, wishful for more. Also, plan on spending a good chunk of change on the 7800 section of the store once the tax check and Bentley Bear arrive.

    All truth, and once again, Praise be to PMP, hallowed be his name Makes me wish i took up programming in my youth.

    Yeah, My Coleco has a flaky power switch. The limited run aspect of the games is a major turnoff too.

    Yes, these and the SG-1000 are all very similair, so I am sure it is a factor.

    Any one else jealous of all the support the Coleco Homebrew gets? Don't get me wrong, PacManPlus is a god, and anyone else who works to make the amazing games we have for the 7800 are pillars of this community. I personally believe the 7800 is a superior machine to the Coleco; Better color pallette, better scrolling, and the console itself is much more attractive. Still, has a huge Konami fan, it's hard not to peer over that fence to all the great MSX ports Coleco is getting from the guys at OpCode (I'm looking at you, Gradius.) Is it just a matter of how easy it is to port over MSX games? Is the 7800 difficult to program for? or is there just not enough support from the 7800 community to justify putting the time and hard work into development?
  12. Gave me a great deal on a red label Yars Revenge. Great member!
  13. Some of the games are harder to find loose than sealed, specifically all the late release red label games.
  14. Yar's Revenge is the last US red label release i need. Would pay 20.00 for a loose one, or be willing to trade for what i have listed in this lot. http://www.ebay.com/itm/142250480972?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649
  15. Around here (Rochester, NY) it was about a buck for the longest time. Now most of the local places are charging between 3-5 for any old loose cart.
  16. A while back someone on here was making sega to 7800 conversion cables, they where cheap, and are wonderful. I use my Sega Arcade Power stick and love it, despite the lack of microswitches in the US version.
  17. Bonus Bump for a great seller, bought a couple of these and they arrived quick and safe.
  18. Bought two 2600 red label carts from him, arrived from across the pond with no issues.
  19. Yeah i can't believe it's going for this much lately, but it is.
  20. bought a copy of Plutos for 7800 from Shawn, great price, shipping, and communication. Thanks!
  21. Has anyone ever attempted to install microswitches on a US Power Arcade Stick? I saw someone do it recently with a 2600 controller. I use my Sega Arcade power stick religiously on my 7800, and have just started noticing how "Squishy" it is. A bit of google fu has lead me to believe the japanese release of this arcade stick used microswitches, but hunting one down appears to be costly, what with the low production of anything Genesis in Japan. Still, just it's existence gives me hope.
