No drama, but that's a real walkback from past commentary here on AA.

Technically, there were 101, starting with 00/100. 102 if you include the prototype board that I believe Kevin still has in his possession.

since we talked about Telegames Games ... are there any other editions to those in the photos?
Other than Tank War as noted, yes. Amazing Bumpman, etc. There are many, depending on the degree of difference from "standard" releases counted as significant to you.
The last two pictured are not strictly TeleGames, but aftermarket relabelings by Jerry Greiner using the label-free MotoX and Tennis carts you sometimes see floating about.
This might be best asked as a new topic.

Coleco Inc. releases were not all "glossy" in the first place. Several could also possibly be considered "cheap" in terms of manufacture.
That being said, the release history of Evolution is itself somewhat odd. The non-Telegames label for this title does not possess a gloss finish.
You likely have an authentic label. I do not recall anyone bothering to manufacture a replica for it, and most (if not nearly all) replica labels have various tells that permit rapid identification.
That the donor cartridge is inoperable may itself lend support to it being a wholly legit non-TG release, for other reasons.

One on One isn't vaporware.

I actually thought it might go for more in the current market.It's the only brand new 1 I recall ever seeing on ebay in over 15 years and only the 5th copy in any shape. But that's not to say it isn't insane lol
My memory might stretch back farther, but this is the third bagged/sealed Bumpman I clearly recall on eBay. One of the other two was in a lot.
A typical year usually brings one or two loose copies to eBay, with or within lots. As with most things, timing is pretty much everything to see, let alone bid, on the listings.
In all cases, there's more than a fair chance of recirculation at play.
For this one, I figured an easy $500 - $600 given the market climate. What is got is quite a stretch, but I've seen far, far worse cases of bid inflation relative to usual pricing over the past year or two for items that are far, far, far more commonplace.

These seem to be almost non existent. I can’t recall seeing one for sale for at least the last 10 years.
Missed a few, then, on eBay at least, in that timeframe.

Don't forget secret games might worth $1500.
The same with prototypes or very rare games.
No. Just no.

IIRC it’s an oversized card stock box like CPK PIcture Show and not a plastic clamshell.
It is.

There are no hookups to be had. Just the SGM.
OpCode might still be taking preorders for the upcoming run. Anyone know for certain?

4. I don't appear to have any private messages from you trying to work out any differences, which of course if I would have received I would have been happy to explain further.
In all fairness to you, this was not your approach in the past. Speaking from direct, personal experience, my first encounter with your moderation approach led me to reach out by PM to you to explain grounds for deletion of a post of mine without comment. My request was met with a string of meme GIFs that did nothing to reveal what prompted deletion in the first place, as well as a promise to ban me from AtariAge for raising the topic of moderation.
My second encounter with your heavy-handedness later on led me to reconsider my degree of participation on the forums altogether.
Good to hear of the change in your response to feedback.
In all fairness to this thread, this entire discussion (though clearly of interest to many) is out-of-place with respect to its stated topic, the CollectorVision Phoenix. Is there any way to disentangle one from the other at this point, to regain the original focus of the discussion?

To access the free ROM download or the cartridge exchange please send an email to exhange@8bitmilligames.com with the name on the original order of Turmoil 2022 and the date ordered so that we can update our records.
I'm guessing that email address should read "exchange@8bitmilligames.com"?

Were the Boulder Dash sources extracted from those diskettes, as well?

I need to see the actual box of Tarzan with actual bilingual texts on it to truly believe it exists. Well, actually, in this case I'm going to assume it exists and I'm going to add it to my "lookin-for" list, but with a sub-note that the existence of the Canadian box hasn't been explicitly proven yet.
The bilingual packaging exists, but if that is what's required (which I understand), ping me a month from now for pictures of this particular box ... though I'd expect someone else should step forward before then, as it's not *that* obscure.

3) There's a Canadian version of Tarzan? With bilingual texts on the front? I've never seen that myself.
Yes, there exists distinct Canadian packaging of Tarzan.
41 minutes ago, Pixelboy said:4) All I've ever seen is the Canadian version of Evolution, which led me to believe that the game was a Canadian-only release by Coleco Canada. But your list seems to indicate that there's a (non-bilingual) USA version?
Is there, apart from the TeleGames version? I've never seen other than the black-box bilingual release, which may or may not be plastered with an external label for Sydney Games.
41 minutes ago, Pixelboy said:5) Is there any visible difference on the front of the box of the Canadian version of Miner 2049er, compared to the USA version?
I can't check my own a/t/m, but I believe the differences are largely confined to the reverse of the box, though I have a sneaking suspicion that the platform banner on the face of the box differs slightly, as well. At least one Canadian 2049er was floating around eBay the past month or so, and it's likely NIAD's filestore contains an image set for its exterior packaging.

It does indeed include a title screen. However, it's only displayed for literally just a few seconds. Is it perhaps that your monitor/setup isn't locking onto the signal or switching resolution quickly enough and only displays the game a few seconds after starting up - too late to catch the brief title screen? The title screen has a green background with black text. So, there is only one version of the rom, but there are quite a few different overdumps out there.
1000x this. It is the behavior I see in the pre-production boards for Fall Guy that have come my way. FWIW, CoolCV displays the pre-game screen in the ROM you posted, @Pixelboy.
