fiddlepaddle Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 That's a very nice, deep, well displayed collection. and, unlike my house, it appears you dust things off once in a while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+cmart604 Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 Great looking collection Niad! What's next on your list priority wise? I was just thinking that I haven't seen many collection shots in the CV forums vs some of the other consoles. Anyone else want to post theirs?

akator Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 I said it in the other thread, and I'll say it again... "Holy crap, NAID!" Very nice collection, nicely organized, and awesomely displayed. I guess there's a reason you are a ColecoVision/ADAM expert Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NIAD Posted May 18, 2012 Author Share Posted May 18, 2012 (edited) Sweet, thanks for sharing. Sigh.....living in an apartment, I dream of having a space like this to show off my stash.... Even having a house doesn't always cut it when there is a wife and two young ones living under the roof as well. This hallway closet was/is actually my wife's storage closet for all her work books and supplies that magically got placed into the storage bins that were housing my CV collection. The other day she woke up and noticed the big change and then proceeded to ask me "What the deuce?". All I could come up with was, "I don't know!!!". Suffice it to say that sooner or later, my CV shrine will be finding it's way back into storage bins. Edited May 18, 2012 by NIAD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NIAD Posted May 18, 2012 Author Share Posted May 18, 2012 Great collection. What are the protos in #12? One cartridge is the Video Hustler prototype, the other is the In-House ColecoVision Final Test cart. Then there are the three PCBs that all have sockets for easy chip installation and removal... two of them are empty and one has Popeye (released version) proms installed. Also have another In-House test utility called Go-No-Go by Nuvatec, but one of the prongs broke and I sent it to Retroillucid to see what could be done with it.

NIAD Posted May 18, 2012 Author Share Posted May 18, 2012 Thanks to everyone for the nice comments and as far as what's on my priority list... finishing off my CIB collection of original 1982-1985 releases as there are a number of loose carts in one of the pics.

Tempest Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 I don't know how you find boxes in such nice condition. Every time I find a Colecovision box it's completely trashed. I guess they just weren't as sturdy as the 2600 boxes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crapahute Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 Wow! Bravo, that's a great collection ! I wish I had as many CBS boxes and more over in such a good condition ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NIAD Posted May 18, 2012 Author Share Posted May 18, 2012 I only collect for the CV & ADAM so this makes searching for things a lot less complicated. Also, two large CIB purchases from Yurkie and Retroillucid really got the ball rolling on my CIB collection (was happy with a loose collection at first) and the condition of the boxes they had was very good. There's probably a lot of great condition CV boxes out there, but collectors aren't going to part with them. As has been mentioned numerous times, it seems that CV collectors don't post pics of their collections as much as collectors do for other systems... hopefully CVers will be inspired after seeing chuys450 and my collection pics.

Tempest Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 I may get rid of my boxed Colecovision stuff in the future, but I think the only rare box I own is the Imagic version of Tournament Tennis (Telegames cart unfortunately). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tempest Posted May 19, 2012 Share Posted May 19, 2012 I've got to decide if I want to do that or not. It will be a bit before I do anything though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
