    My very first ColecoVision hombrew title ever, a fantastic port indeed! As Pixelboy said the marketplace here is a good place to start, there are also Facebook groups dedicated to ColecoVision that would be a good place to post.

    I'll be packing up the bulk of my Bally / Astrocade collection this weekend, not sure but I may have something you can work with. The thing with these systems as I'm sure you've found is the ones that work are, well, expensive. But let me see what I can come up with and then we can go from there. I see you have adapters for the Color Computer 2 and 3 - any chance you'll support the original TRS-80 Color Computer? My uncle a former Raytheon Engineering Manager had one when I was growing up and was kind enough to give it to me during the pandemic, but I've yet to set it up.

    I've never been a fan of using the expansion port for anything but RAM or a computer expansion module, and certainly not a multicart. In fact I shot down the idea when I started the 128k Project 10+ years ago to build the first bankswitching cart for the Astrocade. This fit into a standard cart shell and required no external power. As your device is handling much more than just a bankswitched cart I get the need to use it (expansion) but aesthetically I hate the thought of anything hanging off the back. Keep in mind using the expansion port requires physically breaking off a part of the Astrocade case which doesn't go back on, so some people may take issue with that. Maybe someone with 3D printing experience can come up with a cover for case hole for when your device is disconnected. I'll look through my collection to see if I have any consoles you can use.

    ...at least it's not an NFT...?

    September can't come soon enough man ?

    Backed! Surprised this hasn't hit its goal already, but I think the big gap between CIB and the Limited Edition might have something to do with it. Another option between $50 - $175 might be nice.

    Announced back in November, iiRcade on Friday launched the Alpha version of this supporting 5 titles so far: Data East - Windjammers Data East - Stadium Hero 96 Toaplan - Out Zone Data East - Magical Drop III UNiCO - Dragon Master iiRcade's plan is to support online multiplayer for all retro titles that support 2 player turn based, competitive or co-op, so imagine playing games like Space Invaders (coming soon) online against someone else. So anyone on the fence about a multicade mike want to take a second look. Friday's Gamedaze session: November announcement: https://www.iircade.com/blogs/news/online-multiplayer-gameplay-coming-soon-for-all-retro-games-on-iircade

    Couldn't be further from the truth re: iiRcade. They just added online play for 2 player games with the plan on supporting as many games as possible. 5 titles just went online on Friday like Data East's Neo Geo title Windjammers. So yeah 2 player online support for original arcade games like Space Invaders, Magical Drop III and possibly every other game that supports 2 player turn based, competative or co-op? Yeah, I'd say that's pretty damn special ?

    Potayto, Pototo ...

    Reminds me of the Astrocade Kiosk...
  13. 128Kgames
    Yeah, not sure who (or if) reviwed this but the opening lines "a limited-release" title is completely inaccurate: this is an unfinished, incomplete game, truly a "prototype." I think someone was just blowing smoke up someone's arse when they wrote that. This isn't "Muncher" after all...

    There is also a dedicated CollectorVision Phoenix group on Facebook, if you use it: Collectorvision Phoenix | Facebook
  15. 128Kgames
    I'm in the same boat TPR, I bought the Phoenix to use just as a modern day ColecoVision, I really had no interest in running other cores on it. I had no desire at the time to modify any of my existing Colecos (this was before mods like Ruggers Customs makes). While I haven't had any issues with my main TV with it (surprising as its an older 4K LG SUHD and it can be "finicky" with its HDMI) I can see how it can be frustrating if it doesn't work for some people. But that's just how it goes sometimes, its not like CollectorVision is Sony or Microsoft, and I'm sure those guys are doing what they can. Like J-F said its not like they don't want the Phoenix to work! I don't think there is anything that's ever "100%" compatible with everything, at least I've never come across anything that is.

    It's not like Bally / Astrocade proto carts are hard to find, they show up all the time on eBay. That seller just likes to draw attention to their other items with the exorbitantly priced ones ?
  17. 128Kgames
    Glad to see you're keeping the memory of the Neo Geo alive Anthony! With Xeno Crisis released and NeoTris looks like you still have more to keep you going!

    See if this info helps: http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php?topic=164061.0

    Bob I'm assuming these are real volcano style buttons? I'm asking only because I swear I've seen ones made now for the 1Up cabs, or in the process of being made.
  20. 128Kgames
    Interesting, so it has a light up J panel like QVC / HSN editions of some cabs had.
  21. 128Kgames
    I don't think there was any "exclusivity" as it wasn't a "Double Dragon" cabinet, it was the "Black Edition" cabinet that came with Double Dragon graphics that the user could apply. Unlike their other cabinets, this is designed to be customized by the buyer. As far as cabinets go, iiRcade is releasing a new, "2.0" cabinet that includes a light up marquee. We don't know which models (if any) from their 1.0 line will be carried over.
  22. 128Kgames
    I don't think it's like "Beetlejuice" ... ?
  23. 128Kgames
    His original Facebook post had the email header with the sender's address, not sure if it's still up. Edit: my bad, he only showed the subject and his address, not the sender. He did post the guys purported name.
  24. 128Kgames
    Yeah, that was a dick move, cracking someone's game and throwing it in their face.
  25. 128Kgames
    That, or mirror or host the freely available ROMS on his site and make them available to everyone, no membership required. Provided none of the owners object. Or something like that.
