It's been out a year and I love the graphics quality but is it worth the price? I mean, I don't think it has anything to compare with AD&D on my INTV. but Donkey Kong looks great!

I think it's worth it! I haven't seen graphics like this on any home system, even the new Commodore 64 doesn't look as good.
Check out Zaxxon and tell me ANY home console could do those graphics! And Turbo with the steering wheel expansion unit? That's a dream for video gamers. Go get it, you'll love it.

With the home video game industry so strong I might just do that as the price isn't going to go down in the next year I'm sure. plus I hear you can play Atari games on it somehow.

Donkey Kong and Mr. Do! look incredible. I can't wait to get a ColecoVision.

Yeah, how can anyone say no to a console that plays games just like at the arcade? I haven't seen the Atari 2600 or the Intellivision being able to pull that! And what about Zaxxon? Wow. It's in 3D!!! I'm sure the Coleco will kick every other console's butt for years to come!!!

Guys! You're forgetting that Coleco has promised an expansion that will turn this thing into a full-fledged computer! You can do all your homework on it, balance your checkbook, type letters, and calculate your taxes! It'll pay for itself in less than a year!

My money's on Mattel. Coleco has no videogame experience, and they're really just an inferior toy company anyway. :-P

You mean Family Computer Don't you and any way you are wrong Colecovision will be the best system out there for years to come.
Hey DK never looked better and for a little more we can play 2600 titles on the CV what more can you want we have already bought the CV plus the 2600 adaptor and so far it has been one of the best decisions my family ever made.
