Will Berdan (who I consider to be the current authority on ColecoVision) INSISTS that these were constructed and not actual BIT Corp games. There's a thread about this that goes into great detail but it's probably on the old EZboard... it was enough to convince us, anyway :)

hmm well i'd be keen to read that old thread, if only it could be found. anybody know this seller kingatari1? he has some other rare items up. at any rate its gone past my purchase price and i already have the game built into my dina. BTW its a pretty lame megamania type game.

I think it's Raedon, one of our fellow contestants from DP Survivor.

Here's something to ponder over:

If you read down in the Payment Instructions near the bottom of the screen, you'll see the seller's name & address posted.

Now do a search on your favorite search engine, with his name, "David Levy" and see what pops up. ;)

Turns out David Levy is an Astronomer, who has discovered several comets, including Shoemaker-Levy 9, which crashed into Jupiter in '94

I just found that interesting considering this auction was for a Meteoric Shower cart and the seller has the same name as a well-known Astronomer.
