Do i still get the creds? I'm just as excited that I'm the first with the news! I saw the Intellivision news, and did a search...and BAM!!! Colecovision was ALSO on their site!
I like Intellivision, but I LOVE Colecovision more!

That's more than I have.Â I don't have a ColecoVision!Â LOLÂ Maybe I can now write some reviews of the games.

I got to play it as one of my friends in the dorm had one.Â

Â I was the Atari guy at the dorm with my 7800.Â

I had a ColecoVision years ago and miss having it sometimes. I think I'll be getting oneÂ

Scooter-Computer · May 03, 2014, 02:19:35 AM

i got mine for Christmas when I was in 8th grade.Â Currently, I can't even find it. I keep hoping I'll find it, but just for the 60 games alone the $40 is worth it!

Very Nice!!!

TrekMD · May 03, 2014, 03:42:29 AM

One cool aspect of both this one and the Intellivision version is that they have Limited Edition overlays for the controllers.Â

I had know idea these were so close to shipment. I have heard rumors but thought it would years away not months.

Are there more details? The controller works on old machines but are slightly smaller. It is not a hardware repro it is software emulated based on the same hardware as the first atari flashback.
No extension or cartridge slot.

Tv connector and game bundle unknown. Anyone seen a demo of the games and titles?

It seems it is only shipped within usa, canada as it is not according to european regulations as taken from shipping info of vendor. So no chance for us to see this in a timely manner....

I heard they were coming in 2014, from the Atari Age forum, but my brain is a skeptic brain. When I saw the pictures, THEN I got excited, knowing the rumor became truth.
