+intellivotion Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 (edited) There are so many different (and beautiful) CBS variants that I am not sure I know them all and I would like to have your help to make order. CBS made 8 games and I'm sure 100% that at least 17 different editions exist, plus the language variations. Do I forget someone? Please let me know if other variants exist. (please note: the pictures are not of the games of my collection (and you can easily see it), unfortunately I don't have all these variants!)

+cmart604 Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 I've been meaning to do a new Coleco/CBS thread. There are still a couple I'm missing though. ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+intvsteve Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 (edited) Yeah, the CBS stuff has long been a thorn in my side. None of the games are so well-done or iconic for the system that I feel justified in dropping the coin needed to get them. But yeah, the artwork on a lot of those boxes is great. It'll be awhile before I have the time to add all of these to the website. Of course, having a nice concise listing will help a lot. So hop to it, cmart! I can't put off updating the website until you stop putting off making that list! Edited August 19, 2015 by intvsteve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Intymike Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 I'm sure, I own all german CBS games by now. Maybe our UK and french collectors can tell us their research results. And don't forget the Aussis with their special boxes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep in mind that the thread was created in 2010 and the last post was 2012, so I'm sure more have been discovered since then, though most are likely just language variants, not the art.

I don't think anyone ever found Venture which would have been next. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
