Here is a fun treat, Super Mario!

From Jcw87's Web Projects, here is a fun treat, Super Mario!

Additionally, I have reworked my Game Room page:

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.

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.

2 more 2600 pickups, 6 total 2600 games over this last week

Today I picked up the horrible, but famous Atari 2600 Pac-man and ET.

On the positive side, I finally got Star Wars: Empire Strikes back, Joust, Freeway, and

Star Voyager. This puts my collection at 118 unique games for the Atari 2600
