Buck Rogers: Planet of Zoom. Cart version of the ADAM's pack-in game, with manual. Very arcade faithful version with great graphics and multiple levels. Manual is water damaged but readable. Cart is fine. $5.99 Dam Busters game cart with instruction manual. Great graphics, sound and gameplay. Very in-depth B-17 flight simulator. You must fly a night bombing raid on a dam and blow it up. Fight off enemy aircraft with front and rear machine guns, avoid AA flak, put out engine fires, control your landing gear, sight in bomb targets while flying. $7.49 Dam Busters - rarer French Canadian dual language label version. $9.99 The Heist - Hard to find, fun platformer, sorta like Impossible Mission. $5.99 Mr. Do!. Great arcade gameplay, graphics and music. Is there anyone who doesn't like this game? I've never met anyone who doesn't like it. A great version of the 80's arcade classic. The difficulty is just right, so it's not too hard to learn and not too easy. $3.49 Roc'N Rope cart with manual for Colecovision. Konami arcade classic with neat gameplay and cool graphics, 3 very different screens, challenging gameplay. $6.49 River Raid cart for Colecovision. Frantic arcade style action. Avoid tanks, planes, cannons, blow up the bridges in front of you all the while keeping an eye on your fuel gauge. $4.99 Beamrider cart with manual $4.99 Looping - boxed game with manual - $4.99 Carnival - boxed game with manual - $4.99 Cosmic Avenger - boxed game with manual - $2.99 Joysticks VHS, original 1983 Vestron Video release $9.99 shipped Shipping is $2.99 for one cart. I combine shipping on multiple carts. USA only please.

The Dragon's Lair is box only, it was an ADAM disk game anyway. All the other games come with their manuals, some with warranty cards as well. I want to sell these as a bundle together. Requests to sell individual games will be ignored. Best offer.

questions about COLECOVISION and ADAM computer...
Bill Brasky replied to lucifershalo's topic in Classic Console Discussion
There are two versions of the ADAM. One was an add-on that plugged into the front of your Colecovision. The other was a stand alone unit with a Colecovision board built in. Yes, there's ADAM specific software on tape and disc but the ADAM could also play CV carts. The ADAM isn't more powerful, it uses the same Z-80 cpu as the CV but it has more memory and is greatly expandable with plug in cards. The ADAM is almost like a clone of the MSX computer. The games are usually much larger than cart games and are writable so you can save high-scores and initials etc.. There are many sites with CV screenshots but only a couple with ADAM info. http://www.sacnews.net/adamcomputer/ -
Antarctic Adventure & Cabbage Patch Kids CV ROM Variants
Bill Brasky replied to Psionic's topic in Prototypes
There's a version of CPK labeled 128k, for the ADAM. It has different graphics/backgrounds not in the cart versions but I don't know if it's really 128k. I don't see how it could be. CPK is really just a relabeled Athletic Land game from the MSX. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8SA50Pf9wk4 -
Top 5 Vector Games Of All Time
Bill Brasky replied to A Sprite's topic in Classic Console Discussion
No you shouldn't. Battlezone is easily the worst of the vector games mentioned, by far. It's one most people have played so it makes these lists. Once you get past the cool novelty of the dual sticks and targeting perspective you notice the forced death gameplay that won't allow you to win beyond a certain point. -

Are you sure it's Castle, and not just Mr Do? Mr Do was a Coleco title from Coleco, but Mr Do's Castle was released by Parker Brothers (I've heard it rumored it may have been programmed by Coleco though). As for value, can't say for sure, as I've yet to see a prototype sold since i got back into the scene a year or so ago. I'm sure someone will chime in on it-- I know of at least one collector who has unreleased protos in their collection on here. Murph Didn't Coleco just handle/supervise the artwork/sprite design? They contracted out all programming is what I read. Mr. Do's Casle is too well programmed to have been a Coleco project. Doesn't 6/15/84 sound waaaay late for a CV release? I thought they were cancelling all new game releases by then. Anyone know when the game was released to retail?

Why did the home computer die out?
Bill Brasky replied to Ross PK's topic in Modern Console Discussion
Those old 8 bit computers died out because you can't do shit with them in terms of programming unless you're a master of assembly. Assembly is too hard for the average person. People realized BASIC is near useless for doing the kind of things they wanted. -
Metal Head - Great Game - Never had a fair chance
Bill Brasky replied to Rev. Rob's topic in Classic Console Discussion
Will you please also do reviews for those other misunderstood classics, N64 Superman, Bubsy(jaguar) and Blasto. -
is this an astrocade proto or just a pirate cassette
Bill Brasky replied to crsdawg's topic in Prototypes
IIRC, Blue Ram was a upgrade kit for the Astrocade. That looks to me just like someone copied the game cart to a tape. Artillery Duel was released on cart for the Astrocade before the Blue Ram was. There's no way it's a proto. -
I don't think that's a real a NEO GEO mini cab. The ones I've seen look just like their full size counterparts only shrunken. The control panel should stick out from the cabinet, not be flush with it. I've seen real ones sell for $210-$400+. The ones I've seen are all single slot machines.

How Do You Store Your Boxed Games?
Bill Brasky replied to Tempest's topic in Classic Console Discussion
I put my boxed games into a box. Then I take each systems box of boxed games and put that into a larger box. Then I write the contents of that box on the outside and seal it with tape. Then I put that box into an even larger box and I write "X-MAS DECORATIONS" on the outside to fool thieves. -

PMC is also going to include Pac Man Plus, which may be the only home port of that game. That was an unauthorized sequel Bally made without Namco's permission.

Dual Language (Eng/French) Colecovision?
Bill Brasky replied to SRGilbert's topic in Classic Console Discussion
I have/had the French Canadian CV and roller controller and carts and they never get more $ on ebay. Coleco collectors aren't like Atari collectors who go nuts over every label variation.
