  1. I'll echo the sentiments of those above. I hate to speculate about people, but I know some of us feared the worst. I'm glad that you're (seemingly) doing OK! All of our interactions have been pleasant and I had such a great time designing the q*Bert controller with you. Within the context of atariage and the ColecoVision community as a whole, of course this was a big deal - and i'm thankful for your explanation and apology. But in the grand scheme of life, this hobby isn't worth health or family sacrifices, so i'm glad you were able to focus your energy where it was needed. It sounds like you're taking care of pixelboy (thank you!), who made good on the deposits, and that's great. I know he stepped up just at the right time to make everyone whole. Once you've settled in, I look forward to seeing your work again. We've missed you!
  2. Just got my shipping notice last night! Can't wait to receive them. Thanks again, pixelboy....for the games, the new card series, and all you've done for the community!
  3. I've made several Commodore purchases from eightbit and all have been EXCELLENT! Everything well taken care of and exactly as described. If I didn't already have multiple Ultimate carts, I might have jumped on this bundle....although that genassister sounds pretty cool!
  4. If I were just getting into colecovision, i'd first pick up an Atarimax Ultimate SD: https://www.atarimax.com/colecosd/documentation/ The head over to cvaddict for publicly available stuff: https://cvaddict.com/list.php And then get in on Collectorvision's super game club, which will give you a CIB game (this year, it's TWO games) and access to their rom vault: https://collectorvision.com/shop/colecovision/collectorvision-experience-club-membership-2021/ (I believe you have until this sunday, 1/17 to get in on the 2021 club) I think everyone has steered you in the right direction for controllers.
  5. Same - I wonder if a bunch of them are and only us "informed delivery" folks even know. It was supposed to be delivered on the 31st, but it's in the state's main distribution hub since then and just says it's going to be late. Fingers crossed for Monday!
  6. Happy New Year, Pixelboy! Looks like, although you are passing the torch in your past releases, you have plenty to keep you busy! We are looking forward to all of it!
  7. Yes - it should work fine with .col, .rom or .bin
  8. If you search for pixelboy's Christmas posts, you will see he's released a lot of games in rom format. I would look into purchasing an Atarimax multicart to start. There are other time available here as well. This is a pretty decent list: https://cvaddict.com/list.php?filter=3 From there, focus on new titles for purchase or venture to ebay to pick them up second hand. Gooddealgames.com also has some for sale.
  9. Same. I got two for no apparent reason just because of my love for Lolo!
  10. Bought 7 games from nanochess and they made it through customs. Great communicator and he shipped within hours of payment!
  11. I bought two of them when they were initially available and have yet to use either one - and at this point I don't plan on it.
  12. I didn't mean to imply you were using the wrong gear...simply that there are too many variables with that setup. I don't know why they wouldn't have included the cable and adapter with it....one they could thoroughly test and garauntee works! I don't have the meanwell, but I have no doubt it's superior!
