  1. Hi Ed,

    The only modification I have are:

    replaced power switch, this morning I removed it and jumpered the connections to make sure the PS wasn't causing an issue.

    AV composite mod, it's a simple one 1 transistor some caps and resistors.

     

     

    It has the factory bios. Don't think there is anything else different.

     

    I also tried a couple more PS and no difference.

     

    Wonder why it works with the counterfeit SGM.

     

    Someone need to develop a cart that can display power diagnostics for the cart port.

     

    thanks for taking the time to look into this issue.


  2. Hi,

    Just to add a new wrinkle to this whole Penguin Adventure.

    Mine worked fine with my non-modded CV with a first run SGM. Today I finally fixed the switch on my simple AV modded CV. Game boots, when I get to the world map and te game switches to the game screen the system resets. Other SGM games seem to work on it, including Gradius. Tried different PS and no difference. Tried the cart on my non-modded CV and it seems to work. Now here is the really strange thing. I have a JB, bought it before things had gotten really ugly. With the JB plugged into my AV modded CV PA seems to work fine.

  3. So here's another example of how stupid and shady Chris Cardillo is...

     

    It would appear that he is selling his "Coleco Expo Exclusive" copies of Sydney Hunter on eBay!

    Dear Chris Cardillo - Your "Coleco Expo Exclusive" copy of the game is no longer "exclusive" to the Expo if you are selling it on eBay!!! So now that's false advertising to those people whom you have sold copies to that think the only way to get them is at the Expo.

     

    Remember folks, don't buy from shady people like Chris Cardillo. Buy your copy directly from CollectorVision instead. Here is their listing on eBay:

    http://www.ebay.com/itm/Sydney-Hunter-Colecovision-Limited-Edition-NEW/332325824459

     

    OR you can buy from http://www.collectorvision.com

    Additionally the listing states:

    "Coleco will be conducting their first Coleco Expo in the New Jersey Convention and Exposition Center located in Edison New Jersey. At this event fans will be able to pick up a convention exclusive version of Sydney Hunter for the Colecovision console and Adam computer with 100% of profits from the sale of this cartridge being donated to the Free 2 Luv organization."

    I don't think it actually works on the Adam, hope people don't buy them for their Adam and find out it doesn't work and have to return them! Couple of people on FB mentioned that it doesn't work, and the new box design only mentions Colecovision.

    Excellent question. We included voice, but it isn't Intellivoice compatible, simply because there is no longer an Intv cartridge slot in the module, so you won't be able to play legacy games with it plugged in anyways.

     

    I am a little nervous about the whole idea, and I wonder if a standalone would be a better idea.

    I've been thinking at what point have you created a new system, and not and upgrade? Maybe a new stand alone system would be better. Sounds like the current plan is to use the intellivision for it's power, controllers, and tv out. Kind of like the atari adapter, not a true upgrade.
