I wondered if I would get more points from the tanks being on the bridge! I did after reading manual again realize that I needed to blow up the fuel stations after getting fuel but haven't had chance to try again.

The case of Mika73.

They hate Player Two! I can't believe you would even bring that up!

You could go HDMI to VGA or HDMI to SCART if you planned on hooking the Phoenix to the same monitors you currently hook your ColecoVision to. I agree that would not be an ideal state though, as it shouldn't be necessary to have any other hardware or adapters to have the unit work via HDMI like it is supposed to.

There is still an issue with it and certain TV's yes. For example on my Samsung Q70 it will only work for me if I turn on my OSSC (with no signals going to the OSSC) which currently shares the same unpowered HDMI switch as the Phoenix. That leads me to believe if I just used a powered USB switch it would likely also work. It worked on my 10 year old Samsung TV with no problems. On my Toshiba tv there was a sound issue. With the TV issue aside I have been very happy with how it handles Colecovision gaming and ColecoVision games look spectacular on it. The Atari 2600 core feels like it still needs some polish and I have had an issue with getting games to run at times. It seems for some reason that if I don't immediately click on "Start Game" after I load an Atari 2600 ROM then it won't start the game for me it will just be stuck on the Phoenix's 2600 menu.

That happened to me too

Everyone stop improving your scores haha

It's in the 2020 club. I didn't think they were adding anything into the 2019 club other than the mystery game

10,010 the colour changing balls certainly make it tricky.

They should but unfortunately with the Phoenix there are some quirks that some TV's do not seem to like. Like on my Samsung Q70 it will be recognized by the tv if I turn my OSSC on, which shares the same HDMI hub.

I am so ready for this to begin again! My Phoenix hasn't been getting the work out it deserves!

This is what Pixelboy said in his Christmas post regarding the Ghostbusters ROM and the AtarimaxSD

https://www.retrorgb.com/frenchrgbconsoles.html This might help you out a bit and is what the people on the OSSC board were talking about (I think) in regards to it might not be true RGB out of the console and just composite converted to RGB, which the OSSC does not like

Any more definitive time frame yet?

Its the weekend!!!!!! I am excited for the 2020 vault to crack open

Have you completed this one yet? Really want to see the final result

They did say it multiple times but them finally in late November or early December they said that they were no longer going to release the additional ROMs as part of the 2019 club but were adding them to 2020

There was a minor modification at one point where a single new ROM was added but nothing after that

Is the 2020 closed yet? I know I am being impatient but I am just excited to get the extended ROM vault and then of course the secret game.

Have you updated your Phoenix with the cores on the very first post? If not that is probably the problem

I definitely recommend trying the powered HDMI switch. My current one is unpowered and my phoenix will only work if I turn on my OSSC which is hooked to the same switch but don't turn on anything with a signal on the OSSC

They had stated before that John Lester had agreed to having it in the vault for the update that was supposed to happen this year, hope it happens

Interesting update. If I turn my OSSC on which is hooked to same HDMI switch as Phoenix the tv will recognize the phoenix. Didnt try any games yet but think it will work
