fiddlepaddle Posted February 20, 2010 Share Posted February 20, 2010 Crossposted from the other thread, but FYI: Issue #72 was on the rack at the St. Louis MicroCenter last night for $9.99.I noticed that at my Microcenter also. Now, if they could just get some cigarette, vodka, and condom advertisements in there, maybe they could bring it down to $4.99. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
retroillucid Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 (edited) "too little too late" Certainly not! ... the problem is that they never release the SuperGame Module This would have been help Coleco to continue the long run... Again, this's Adam's fault Edited February 25, 2010 by retroillucid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Psionic Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 The "ten games to have" are... 05 River Raid - agree Great game, but the CV port is probably the worst console version out of them all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cimerians Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 Its a nice magazine but again its too overpriced here in the US. and the content is usually too UK centric for me so I dont buy the magazine that much. There's nothing much more the good people at the magazine can probably do but I may buy the current issue just for the CV. I also don't really agree with the "too little too late" quote. Too little what? Games? Compared to what? The 5200? Please....... Too late? Everyone was too late. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youki Posted February 26, 2010 Author Share Posted February 26, 2010 Too little compared to Atari. In term of size of the company and financial means. Too little to surive the crash. Atari survived (more or less) , Coleco doesn't. Too late , to become enough big (in term financial means) to survive... I think if the coleco cames 1 year earlier , it would be different and could have survived a little more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patbb Posted February 26, 2010 Share Posted February 26, 2010 As for retrogamer price and wait time for North American, I live in Canada and have taken advantage of the new subscription rates for North Americans. I do not know if they still have the "deal" available, but I purchased a 1 year subscription for 80 US, which includes 13 issues. The normal price of the newstand around here is $16.50 Canadian, and the wait time is usually about 6-8 weeks after the UK release I subscribed like 1 month before that special price, I paid 130$ (80 UK pounds) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
