  1. Ok, I feel like an ass now. Considering my friend isnt too savvy with computers, he didnt give me all the details. He said he got a remote controller joystick for his computer and he could play all coleco games. I asked him to give me his brothers phone number so I could get a more detailed explanaition.

     

    I called him and he told me that all it was is a emmulator he got off the net and he downloaded onto some disks and bought a wrielss "recoil" controller.

     

    I apoligize for getting everyone all up in arms. I was excited to hear that a home version had appeared only to find out it was not. :(

  2. Ok, as many of you know, there are "video game clones" out there. you can pay $20-30 for a controller that allows you to play atari 2600 and nintendo games, all of course are "illegal". But today, i spoke with a friend down in florida and he said his brother bought him a controller that featured all the games that were played on the COLECOVISION. He ran off a couple to me like COSMIC AVENGER, PITFALL, LADYBUG, SMURF & MONTAZUMAS REVENGE.

     

    He didnt give me much more info but I tried searchin the net and found nothing. Does anyone else know of this new clone?

  3. I have encountered the 7,650 bonus at the "Break Time" at the end of the level.  If you jump at just the right place, the screen will end a split-second before Pac-Man lands.  That gives you 7,650 points.  A little too early and you'll get 1,000.  A little too late and Pac-Man just lands, and you get nothing.

     

    I wonder what the signifcance of the number is though...very odd for a video game.  Sort of like the "27" that is so prevalent in Weird Al songs.

     

    (Whoops, sorry, just saw your comment about Namco.)

    Ive seen the flowers a million times and I believe its some sort of "timer". but i actually never knew for what.

  4. I have to be honest with everyone here. when I posted the first line, I actually got it from a friend (scream and fly). when we were in the 6th grade (83), our music teacher made us huddle around and we had to create our own lyrics and scream n fly was the first and he used those words. theyve been in my head ever since! thanks, greg!

    No more questions!  :x

     

    From a gamer's stand point I'd say that the ColecoVision is a ton better, not to mention a far superior list of 3rd party controllers available for it for all of those who complain about the standard controller. 

     

    From a modder's stand point I'd say that the ColecoVision is a ton better, a lot more options and upgrades are available.  (see above picture)

    holy crap!!!! i never saw those rca's on the back of any colecovision i owned! where did you get one with those rcas on the back!?!?!?!?!?!

  6. I've got a ColecoVision Club membership card, that has one of those relflective 3-D images that shifts as you slightly change the viewing angle of the card.  It has pics of Mario, Donkey Kong, the cat and mouse from Mouse Trap, and the good and bad guy from Pepper II along with the slogan Gotta Get Home to my ColecoVision.

    nice! thats something I would to see. When I dig mine up, i will post it up here.

  7. Good news! This is another game I will have to buy :)

     

    I would like to see a good Konami collection...and why not a Tecmo or a Hudson Soft collection as well  :D

    i would do anything to see ROC N ROPE as well as TIME PILOT on these collections, as they looked in the arcade.

     

     

    hell, i would love to see donkey kong and donkey kong jr on a nintendo one, with the 4th levels and thier intermissions.

  8. Hi there!

     

    http://www.digitpress.com

    Go to the rarity guide and check out ColecoVision.

     

    Uhm... how would I do that? I click on the "Online Rarity Guide" link and then what?

     

    BTW Here's my favourite Colecovision list:

    i just looked over the list and I noticed many atari soft games that say are availible now like pac man. how are these games availble now if they werent offered in the first place 20 years ago?

  9. this is a dream come true!!!!

     

     

    I would love to see all the classic games in a "flash back" type of system. however, there were some restrictions when it came to some games. for instance, I had bought "FRONTLINE" for an extemely cheap price when it was first released but I did not have the money for the super action controller so I was never able to finish the game unless I begged my mom to but me a set of SA controllers.

     

    please do away with the SA buttons and make controllers with more than 4 or more buttons! (yes, use the keypad even if you have to!)

     

     

    i would also like to see games that never saw the day of light (I remember reading about some in some issues of the coleco magazine from back in the day) and if possible, why not include the ADAM versions (those versions had the intermissions in them!!!!!)

  10. ZX Spectrum, hands down.  I love that little computer

    ah, a british fan!

     

    i wanted to the spectrum badly because it was the only system out there that featured the Atari's arcade version of "RETURN OF THE JEDI".

     

     

    thank God it was availible recently with a secret code on the gamecube!
