Hi Again. This is my 7th blog.
Finally, i got my 2 games 6 months after i odrered them first time from Eduardo
Mello at OpCode Games.
Luc Miron has taken over, an after that, i now have it at my home, thank you for
that.
As always, these games are
professionals all the way out, do doubt about that.
I have 5 games from OpCode Games, Space Invaders Collection, Sky Jaguar, Yie Ar
Kung Fu, Magical Tree and Road Fighter.
And i love the 4 of them.
My CV had some problems with
boot games up, I noticed it particularly with the game Space Invaders Collection,
and Mr. Chin.
And finally, there were only black screen when I power up.
So I was need to discard my ColecoVision, to see what, if any, was wrong.
It was a little pin there was broken in the cartridge-connector.
Oh no I thought, but I could save it by twisting it out so I could connect with
the game again.
So now it working again, but in other words only as a last resort.
Which leads me to think of CV
2!.
"newcoleco" from AtariAge is hot to have produced a whole new ColecoVision.
Either as a new standard version, or a version that is built over emulation
through the FPGA.
Whatever the outcome, I will in any case, buy a copy.
It must of course be with AV Out, and internal power source a la Plug n Play.
That which I see as the problem is the hand controllers.
Either build them with space to the original overlays, or a completely new
controller without the overlays.
Up, Down, Left, Right, Fire, Jump, Player 1 and Player 2.
Play with the overlay, which said they could always be played with the regular
controllers.
Luc is still ongoing, with
its double-cart, he makes 2 games in a cartridge, and launches it all once again
in 2009.
Philip Klaus Krause has produced a new Megacart as he calls L5.
L5 has the capacity to be able to save a high-score from a game directly on the
L5.
CollectorVision at AtariAge
has asked if he could get in a little space on my site, I said yes.
Then as he gets sent material to me, will the site be developed.
I have committed myself to delete the entire Danish part of colecovision.dk
because I do not believe there is sufficient justification.
So in future I will only concentrate on the English part.
Come final with a proposal for the site, and I will look at it.
That's all for this time, have a continuous nice day !.
Ole Nielsen.
