Wow! I had a lot of these games including the steering wheel for Turbo and the special controllers for Baseball and Rocky. I later got the Adam computer that plugged into the expansion module. Years later, my dad asked if I wanted them and I said no. I regret that decision to this day 😣. Thanks for taking the time to put this video together. It brought back a lot of great memories 😊
@@johneygd Unfortunately, he got rid of them. Either they went into the trash or, Goodwill. I had the original boxes too for most of the stuff. I still have the BASIC and Buck Rogers tapes though but yeah, stupid decision on my part.
Great video. Sooo many perfect arcade ports. One of the greatest systems of its time and def crushed the Atari which made me all the more jealous for not owning one. Edit #45 should be H.E.R.O which is a fantastic game. The graphics looks great on this version.
Ooo. Good question: I think this video contains most of them. However, it gets confusing because there are quite a few home-brew titles that were released after the console officially died. I'm going to guess ... ballpark ... 125?
129 U.S. releases 1 U.S. very limited release 7 foreign/Canadian releases 9 TeleGames exclusive releases 22 prototype and unreleased games 116+ homebrew games Source: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ColecoVision_games
In 1983 I bought the Atari 5200 primarily for Pole Position. I always wondered if should have bought Colecovision instead. To be honest, I'm not liking most of what I'm seeing here. The TI99/4A's graphics chips are very apparent.
Looking for the name of a game. It's a thin man who keeps descending underground through tunnels and encounters stuff that can kill him along the way. I think he can run and jump and he digs through tunnels and can pick up weapons along the way as well. It might be on Colecovision, not NES, but I used to love playing it. Anyone know the name?
Atari had a game called Journey Escape, where you’re trying to protect the band Journey from reporters & paparazzi photographers. You dodge the reporters/photographers & eventually hop on a golden spaceship, I think? The music in the background is “Don’t Stop Believin.” My 8 year old self had never heard of the band Journey, & I remember being blown away when I heard it on the radio for the first time......”Mom!!! The guys on the radio are singing the Atari song!” thinking that the band took the song from the game & not the other way around, lol! Many years later, the first time my nephew heard the song, it was on that god awful show, “Glee.” And he had the same experience when I played Don’t Stop Believin on the radio in my car........he was like, “Why is that song from Glee on the radio?” Sigh.
The one where you manage a rock band is called It's Only Rock & Roll, you make decisions using the number pad on the controller. More fun than it sounds!
