Oh, what a week for the ColecoVision collection...

[wberdan]

Well, here is another neat thing I just got in the mail today-
a proto for Escape from the Mindmaster for the ColecoVision!



I also just completed my ColecoVision collection!
I only need the following boxes to have my collection totally complete for the US!

Sir Lancelot / Robin Hood xonox double ender box
Motocross Racer (telegames cardboard box)

thats TWO boxes people!

congratulations, that's one of the collections i will never complete, perhaps not even start :)

Colecovision's one of the best...maybe THE best pre-NES oldschool systems around...I hope everybody has a chance to see it (including myself, heh heh).

I was going to wait until I have every box and then display them in a photo, kind of like what Joe has done with many of his compelted collections. .. but if you really want to see anything (or everything) before i totally compelte the collection... just let me know and i'll try to take a couple pics.
it wont be very interesting to anyone but the most berzerk colecovision fans though

im so curious if your colecovision system boxes came printed in german or stickered, and also if the consoles are in german at all (or english) ... if you know the answer to this, let me know.

I thought only the Atari 2600 had double-enders. Did any other systems have double-enders aside from the 2600 and the Colecovision?

man, i think there won't be such a good condition one on ebay for quite a while, but as i'm short on money and not into pre-nes i won't bid on this little gem, but i KNOW i will regret this someday....

wberdan,
Someone posted on here recently about finding a SECAM CV with a SCART output. Do you know if it's true that these were released or is it BS?

i was really surprised too... i had never heard of such a thing, but i believe it- weirder things have turned up, and that seems like a silly thing for someone to lie about

Nice job on the collection. My granny has always been a gamer (dont ask) and she PITCHED a complete Colecovision she bought in the 80's with about 20 games when she was cleaning her house. I smacked her for that.

Where do you find the room for all of that stuff?
