Anyone else think it's kind of crazy how they used a colecovision cart for the ad photo?

Indeed, the two promised bundled games are for ColecoVision...

Well, the screenshots may be, I'm not certain, but those games were actually bundled with the Gemini. I've got the stupid stickers on the backs of my carts to prove it.
Still, the photo's terrible. ;)

No, those are definatly the 2600 versions. I'd never noticed the cart in the slot is a Colecovision one tho. Nice catch.

Seeing that just makes me sad for Sears. Once one of the great American retailers, now just a shell of what they were.

I just realised that my Suncom Joy-Sensor doesn't look at all like the one in the catalog. And they wanted $50 for the Wico trackball? Wow.
