If you watch the person insert the Donkey Kong cartridge into the cartridge slot, you will notice that they did not push the cart all the way down to make complete contact and when they pretended to turn on the CV, the BIOS screen should have been displayed.

 

So bennybingo is correct in that another system was actually hooked up and displaying to the TV probably because the people filming the video couldn't find a working CV power supply.

 

ED: You should have also noticed that the Exp Mod. #1 Atari Adapter is not plugged into the CV's expansion slot while the 2600 version of DK is playing... at the beginning of the video.

If you look the cartridge it seems it is a "long" cartridge , longer that usual size. I think i already saw somewhere this kind of cart. (prototype may be ?).

That is a standard CV cart and I think what may be throwing you off is that it's the variation "For ColecoVision & ADAM Computer" cart label. I actually thought the same thing that you did when I watched the video the first time, but then noticed that the person did not push the cart all the way down in the cart slot.

There looks to be a delay from when the girl flips the Colecovision switch and when the screen actually turns - also, who holds the Colecovision controller like that?
