So, anybody have a complete Colecovision System?

Yes, the ADAM used both. Plus there was a disk drive you could get for it (I have it, but am missing a part), and in the last 5 years or so, a hard drive was developed for it...

I'd say that you are pretty lucky to have an ADAM cassette game. They are pretty rare, considering that there were relatively few ADAM computers, plus the game tapes would often break after being played often. Back in the day I went through 2 Buck Rogers cassettes (80's), and haven't been able to find another since, although I still have the cases. :|

www.ecoleco.com still has a lot of them.

 

I was disgusted that when I hooked up my ADAM for the first time in.. 7 years the other day, that it ate my DK, DKJr, and ZAXXON tapes. The only one that worked was the 'Best of Broderbund' tape that had AE and Choplifter on it.

Thank you so much Inky! I had no idea such a site existed, although I am not surprised. ADAM still has quite a cult following. They even have annual conventions.

ADAMcon. Yep, heard of them, although never went to one. I used to write a games column for the Chciago area ADAM users group back in the day. Quite a fun experience.

 

If I can get that floppy drive cable, I'm going to have my ADAM up and running at the VGS this summer...
