Just plug it into the Adam and you are all set. The Adam already has the extra Ram. It just needs this cart for the second sound chip. The Adams Ram is used in place of the SGM ram even if you used a real SGM Here is the audio cart plugged into my Adam It works the same as my SGM cart but at a fraction of the price Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was the 2nd or 3rd run. I meant to buy a couple more, but I forgot ( and opcode makes buying anything through them a PIA). Then the 2 weeks two slow the curve happened. I have seen this ColecoVision RAMBOard 32k on ebay and was thinking about trying it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now, I do remember the clear one was originally ebay auctions only and limited to (5?) IIRC...it was the same time he was doing prototype games (limited runs of 5) on ebay...but, I don't follow Coleco enough to remember if a full blown clear run was made. I'm guessing if you didn't win it from an absurdly overpriced ebay battle, it was probably produced in a legit run at some point...how many were made? No idea...not sure if Opcode releases those figures or not. 9 hours ago, H454 said: Looks like I got it from the AA store- ID: Name: Qty: Unit Price: Total: 2403 Super Game Module (SGM) - ColecoVision -Clear Black Case Upgrade: No 1 $90.00 $90.00 Subtotal: $90.00 Shipping: $10.55 Total: $100.55 Yeah, that sounds about right. I want to say the very first run was slightly cheaper, I think Opcode offered a discount too if you sent check/MO instead of electronic payments...

I wanted a clear one, but I would not have paid through the nose for it. In fact, I just found my order in a sub-folder. Yeah, I paid $99.75 for a run sold through AtariAge, with an additional $10 for the clear upgrade. Because I am not a peasant. Looks like I grabbed a second run, advanced-compatibility 2016 model. Given this unit is no longer in production, is a good quality item, with an original release in 2012, only doubling in price in the second-hand market, especially buying from people who take care of their stuff, is not terrible and less than I would expect.

Okay, I would bet there are a fair number of clear ones out there then, 100 or more? (although I'd guess nowhere near the amount of black/standard...a thousand or more? No idea...) Yeah, they were getting pretty nuts for a little while but the price seems to have normalized around a few hundred bucks. I do know there were several runs of several hundred (5 or 6?)so it's hard to believe that everyone who wanted one doesn't already have one at this point...but, you get new Coleco fans, or people like me that regretfully sold everything at some point...also a lot of people that may have had no interest initially seem to suddenly want stuff super bad they can't readily buy. I get why some homebrew guys do the limited edition thing... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+sramirez2008 Posted June 10, 2022 Share Posted June 10, 2022 Hmm, that beige one is slightly less than what I paid for my 2nd gen one (SM2403) back in March. I watched it for awhile and made the seller an offer. He countered by adding another $10 to my initial offer. In the end, I got a new SGM for $60 off the asking price. You could always try making an offer. Some sellers know that their asking a bit much for these things and are simply looking to see how much “we” are willing to pay. I’m sure you’ll find one at a reasonable price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get why some homebrew guys do the limited edition thing... There is only so much time you can put into a product as a home-brew. @matthew180 introduced the F18A way back, what, 10 years ago or so. You can only produce so much as one man, but he also open-source the project so others can still fill (parts availability permitting) can fill the still-existing demand. I have counseled many friends against selling their collections for short-term needs. Even some who said they wanted to get out of the hobby, you just know they will regret it and for no long-term relief. I have faced that myself a few times (honestly, right now, for instance... times are tough.) But the thought that while I may sell what I got for double what I paid, it will cost me triple or more to get it back later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
