Team Pixelboy News Bulletin - December 25th 2023
xdurable replied to Pixelboy's topic in ColecoVision / Adam
On my first try clicking on the Manual - I got the 404 error .. I then right clicked on it and selected copy link which I pasted into a new Tab in my browser https://www.colecovisionaddict.com/manuals/space-shuttle-a-journey-into-space.pdf I was then able to open the PDF and save it. -
Mine showed up today as well... looks like some fun ahead.
-
Got the email as well - thanks for all of Collectorvisions hard work. Looking forward to the new Carts and the Magazine.
-
Just curious if there is an update on shipping date ?
-
Done - looking forward to the new games.

Colecovision Joystick Mod Question
xdurable replied to thegamezmaster's topic in ColecoVision / Adam
I have converted a not overly reliable original ColecoVision controller to a "Fighting stick" style - I removed the PCB and did a little soldering to connect some wires to the original contacts and then put it and some Arcade quality parts in a box - this is rev 2 - the box is made out of thin MDF - the holes under the joystick are for some buttons for games like Asteroids and Star Castle. -
Got my package today - games look sweet ..

Season 15 - Preseason - Round 2 - Donkey Kong
xdurable replied to Northcoastgamer's topic in ColecoVision High Score Club
I played both a Cartridge and also the ROM and I found the Cartridge has a slowdown bug of some kind - Mario would be slowly move ( running / jumping or climbing ) when I played the ROM I never encountered the slowdown - are there known issues with some version of the DK cartridge ? -

Got mine today as well - they look Fantastic. Thanks Team Pixelboy for the hard work to make them happen. -
I just received my Keelog power supply - 4 days earlier that DHL had indicated .. I can confirm it has the correct plug - it fits snugly but the Pins do line up - haven't tested the power aspect yet.
-
I guess we will find out next Friday.
-
I just got notification this morning that my Power supply was picked up by DHL ( ordered back on Dec 1 ) - should receive it Jan 14 - I will advise if the plug is the new one that fits or the old one that doesn't.
-
Well that bodes well for a fix - mine has been in Transit since Dec 1 - hopefully it means they delayed the shipment to correct the plug .. I have reached out to them to get an update.

Thanks Luc - Merry Christmas -
Thanks - mine is in DHL's hands so I will check it against my 3 CV's when it arrives - but considering they are all North American models - it probably won't fit.
-
What about for people that have one already - are they going to replace the units ?
-
Star Castle arrived today .. box is fantastic - firing up the Phoenix.

Cavern Fighter and Second Gen Phoenix issues
xdurable replied to crisalan44's topic in CollectorVision
OK - so no Ver 7 on the Gen 2 console. So the work around you mentioned works for Cavern Fighter ( pressing the fire button then playing - at Game Over it returns to the menu ) but with the Classics Cartridge - it never returns to the main menu - even pressing 2 or 3 to select one of the other games when the console is first turned on doesn't work - the console doesn't except the input unless ( haven't tried it ) the timing has to be perfect. From what I can tell yes there could be a bug with the games ( loading screen ) - however there could also be a minor bug with the Ver 8 core as it seems to be consistent with games from Tony in cartridge form - based on my testing - all other Collectorvision games that I have - seem to work fine on the Ver 8 core on either Gen of console.
