I had to do that once or twice to a brand new homebrew on an original console... I tried it and unfortunately, it didn't work. The best I get is a title screen which either stays and never moves on from there (according to the manual, there is 2 title screens and a demo mode) or the same title screen keeps going on and off or I get a completely blank screen. There is absolutely zero sound during all this. I've also played with inserting the cartridge only partially and also pressed 5, then 1 as per manual to start a game. Nothing. I thought Al tests the carts before he sends them out and if so, I guess it worked for him and it's down to a quirk of my Phoenix. I hope not. The whole point of replacing my CV was to rid myself of a temperamental system so it's doubly annoying to replace my CV with something even more temperamental! I still haven't heard from Al, which is longer than the 24 hrs AtariAge states it will take to receive a response but I'm giving him some leeway because of how busy he's been. I just hope there's a satisfactory outcome to all this. I just want the game to work.? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1980gamer Posted July 23, 2021 Share Posted July 23, 2021 I have 2 vizio tv's that work fine. 55 inch and 37inch I can try it on the samsung at some point.. Note. The 55inch has issues with the tivo cable box. But if I change off the correct HDMI input and then go back to it, it will then display. Have you tried this with the Phoenix? I don't know the model #'s off the top of my head... But if will build an actual compatibility list, I will look them up. Being as I am looking to upgrade before football season starts.... This could be useful to me!!!! Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a gen zero model (my name's in the manual as a backer). Between the dodgy HDMI display support, the back-power issue (that could have been avoided with proper EVT testing and a Schottky diode), and the arrogance of the folks behind it, I'd like to be rid of it. USD$50.00 plus EMS shipping from Japan and it's yours. PM me to arrange. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fiudr Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 Is there going to be a new run of these available? Will there be any fixes available if there's a new manufacturing run? It seems there's no way to get one of these at this point. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Collectorvision hasn't opened up a list for pre-orders of a third batch yet. Watch the forum as I am sure when they announce a 3rd pre-order they will post here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think when I initially saw that box a while back, it said "Chameleon Bundle Package"...because of the negativity associated with that name and the debacle that happened with the Chameleon a few years back, seems the ole New Jersey Rap King decided to slap a sticker over the Chameleon part in hopes no one would know!!! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(and more than a little sad for the Phoenix). Sadder that he considered passing this off as the fruition of the Coleco Chameleon, then tried to hide it with semi-transparent tape. I wondered what possessed him to put a chameleon on the box. Don't give up on the window business Chris. Unfortunately, people are climbing over each other to buy these for a $100-$200 markup because it's sold out (okay, $200 markup gets you an Adam controller). I will say the Phoenix seems quite in demand for a console so many people thought would flop. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He recycled the name from this fiasco below. Chameleon (video game console) - Wikipedia JF mentioned in a Facebook post that CollectorVision requested that Chris remove the name Chameleon from the box.
