Post by: Mystic on October 26, 2008, 04:08:11 PM
Or really lesser known ones?

I don't...I wish I did though.

god darn how did you get a 7800!?
I used to have a NeoGeo Pocket Color (with the remake of Sonic 2 XD ), but now I can't remember what I did with the darn thing...
The only game that worked on it last I checked was the Sonic game (I had Sonic, King of Fighters, and Puyo Pop)

I got it off of my local Craigslist with all the hookups, two controllers, and 25 7800 games (pretty much half the entire library for the thing) and 28 2600 games for a total of $60.

I also got a Jaguar with 13 games and all the hookups combined with the 7800.

Overall, I paid $100 for all of that.  :)

I also have a Neo Geo Pocket Color with Sonic Rush Adventure, SNK Vs Capcom, Pac-Man (of course), and Fatal Fury.

It's broken, isn't it?

It wouldn't cost much to replace a fuse, that's probably what's wrong with it.

Uh...nope.
My mom used to have a "Coleco." I'm not sure what it was exactly. But she says it's the best. :P

Colecovision? Definitely one of the better 2600 competitors. The controllers sucked, though.

Here's what it looks like.

You also could buy an expansion to play all Atari 2600 games on the Colecovision, the equivalent of Sony releasing an adapter to play 360 games on the PS3.  :P

They got away with it because the 2600 could be built using off the shelf parts.

someone watched the AVGN video on Colecovision...

It was essentially a 2600 rip-off because no one wanted to try anything else (and the fact that 2600 games were so easy to make, even in the early 80's, that one person could make their own game in a couple weeks)

Yeah, but it had few stand-out titles, like Smurf Rescue, Looping, Donkey Kong, and Zaxxon.

Coleco actually made games for the 2600, but they made them bad on purpose to make the Colecovision one look better by comparison.

Nope. Plenty of consoles and handhelds, but none of them are rare at all.

I knew someone who had one of those old Game & Watch things.

The one where there are like a left and right button and those were all the controls.

I miss Garret.  Wierd guy but he was fun.

Just the old 2800 or whatever but I've got two of them and a lot of the games that came out for it. I don't have any rare systems unless you consider a working SNES rare.

The rarest console I have is a Dreamcast, but I really wouldn't consider that rare.
