+nanochess Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 what were the first Coleco games released? I have copies of Donkey Kong, Carnival and Mousetrap that have the smaller Coleco logo in the bottom left without the words Manufactured by, I think these must have been the first versions since the newer ones like DK JR and Turbo have the larger logo with those words. Do you have any other Coleco variations (not CBS) ? OMG! So many variations!!! :o Well, my goals for 2018 are: * Increase my loose Intellivision cartridge collection. (missing 43 from 125) * Keep writing games for Intellivision. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+JasonlikesINTV Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 Using Steve Jones' pics as a guide (including MouseTrap reissue and the new FrCan MouseTrap he found), I'm counting around 51 variations (not including stickers), though I'm sure there are more. I haven't checked my Coleco games in a while and wanted to know which ones I have. I'm up to 22 (I have the ones marked with the big white X. The 3 with small Xs indicate that I have the same box, but my copy has a sticker over the text) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+intellivotion Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 I should be up to 33 (+ the 2 lame variations of CBS Donkey Kong white stripes not shown in Steve's pics). I do not know of other existing Coleco variations, apart from the "new" Mouse Trap. Though, it would be cool to find a French-Canadian Donkey Kong Jr. one day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GenetixJ Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 I have the tower of doom you are looking for. PM incoming. In 2018 I plan to triple the amount for shipping on everything I sell online, especially to international bidders, because I am every bit the evil, greedy American jerkwad you think I am! BWHAHAHAHAHA!!! Actually, I'm hoping to finish off the oddball pieces I am missing from my 121 this year. It looks like random stuff but once I clear this list I will own every original piece (that is known anyway) for the first run of the common and not so super rare games: Melody Blaster - errata sheet Mind Strike - gatefold box Night Stalker - painted label cart Tower of Doom - box without bar code on bottom flap. Should just say TOWER OF DOOM there. 1 gold (international) Parker Brothers game catalog 1 Sega warranty card (from Congo Bongo) After that, I guess save up for one of the Final 4 in my signature but that would take me well past 2018, lol 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freewheel Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 I figure a 75% chance of Portland at this point. Hoping to make it 100%. Because I wanna release something... a little different this year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Special Teams Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 1) LTO Flash - I've made it so far as opening the box. This year I WILL figure out how to load it up. If Rev can do it ANYBODY can do it. 2) Still looking for a CIB "For Color T.V. Viewing Only" version of Armor Battle. 3) Boxed INTY II (really just requires a 2 hour drive north across the border, some US$ and me buying a certain someone a couple of beers). 4) Will be hitting PRGE again (4th time?). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Intymike Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 I never made specific plans for collecting. And how could I when a year like the last brought me so great moments. Getting a ECS for a good price, getting a Videoplexer (never thought of that at the start of the year). Representing Elektonite at Gamescom and joining the Brotherhood at PRGE with some additional great moments while visiting Oregon. It was a outstanding year for me! So, what may lay ahead for me this year...getting all the Homebrew...maybe returning as exhibitor to Gamescom...and I'm thinking of returning to Portland... And then there is something special that I will reveal in maybe a few weeks. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mr_intv Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 My main goal for 2018 is to actually play more games on the system. More play and less collecting will be in my future. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+-^CrossBow^- Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 Mine are pretty simple goals. Likely because the Intellivision isn't one I collect that heavily for... - Pick up a Sylvania Model Intellivision - Pick up any loose carts of games I don't own (there are quite) - Make some videos for my YT channel with the Intellivision as I haven't yet aside from tech videos - Attend PRGE this year Pretty much it...

+Steve Jones Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 So I checked mine last night and it appears that you have discovered another variant! As I looked through them it totally made sense that this existed. I actually think it opens up the possibility of maybe 3-4 more French Canadian Coleco variations. ??? Here's some better pictures, I waited until the guy's overpriced lot ($400 for this and a bunch of commons) didn't sell, then messaged him a couple of times until he agreed to sell me just this one. Box is not mint but decent, I've never seen this one before, has anyone else? 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+intellivotion Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 awesome! Congrats for the achievement and thanks for the discovery. Except for a couple of titles, Coleco/CBS didn't make nice games for Intellivision, but surely made and keep on making collectors happy (and sad) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
