Bad issue with my ColecoVision Flashback

I turned on the ColecoVision Flashback last night and received a scrambled startup screen. Turned off the system, had the same screen. Turned the ColecoVision Flashback off one more time and the system displayed vertical color bars. For the remainder of my troubleshooting, that is all I received.

So I opened up the system to look for some obvious reason for the issue.

Not quite like opening up other systems to troubleshoot. The board is a fraction of the size of the console case and screwed on the the upper side so that when opening the case up, the underbelly of the board is exposed. That said, the board looked clean of dust, corrosion, and other issues.

The solder points, resisters, and capastors look good to me.

Power looks good and the video chip is working, thus the color bars. It is my opinioin that the ROM has gone bad. I will likely do what others have done a put a PI in this.

Here is a fun treat, Super Mario!

From Jcw87's Web Projects, here is a fun treat, Super Mario!
  • https://jcw87.github.io/c2-smb1/

    Additionally, I have reworked my Game Room page:
  • http://mrgibson.com/GameRoom/


    A new favorite platformer I have discovered is Space Panic. Predates and influenced Donkey Kong.  Game play needs some explanation, as it is not obvious at first, but once you understand how to play, quite fun.  I have it on the ColecoVision and it is a fun game that I had never played before.

    Mecha-8


    Screen shot from ColecoVision (Real Hardware)

    A great game I have discovered, Mecha-8.  As far as I can tell, the game has only been released for 3 systems; the MSX, ColecoVision, and Sega Master System.  None of these I would call mainstream game systems today.  

    Mecha-8 by Nanochess for the Colecovision uses enhanced sound from Opcode's super game module (SGM). This is incorporated in the version that is released for ColecoVision Flashback by AtGames (both 60 game and 61 game version).

    My AtGames ColecoVision Flashback 61

    This is a scrolling shooter with outstanding game play, music, graphics, variety in environment, and fun 'bosses' for such a game.  I can't image what this game would have done for ColecoVision if it had come out in 1983.
