nosweargamer Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 (edited) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZgK9toMddHA Thoughts? I tend to like mini arcades and Robotech, so this one might be nice. I do wish they would make some based on arcade hits too, like the original Coleco did. Update: A viewer pointed out that this appears to be a port of the GBA Robotech game. I haven't played it so I can't say if the game is any good or not.

Inky Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 I think this was discussed in the Coleco Chameleon thread. chris cardillo is behind it, and nobody here is really interested because of the middle finger he gave the Coleco fan base. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow! That thread is still going! Crazy! I haven't checked that thread in a long time. Anyway, from what I understand, he wasn't trying to insult fans, but rather trying to protect the brand, however it sounds like he went to far. I don't know all the details of that situation, but there may be other people behind the project as well that I would hate to see get thrown under the bus with Chris by association. Personally, I'm just happy to see these table tops come back and hope the make some based on classic arcade games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inky Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 If there was a tabletop like that with a SD card slot, I would seriously consider it, but Robotech? Yawn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Loguidice Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 It's funny that these retro-style mini arcade form factors that basically emulate single NES games (or similar platforms) are gaining traction. I have the recent Centipede (7800 Atari Flashback port to a NOAC) and Q*bert (NES version) tabletops and, while a fun novelty for a few minutes, really have little other redeeming value in my opinion. The controls are always compromised and it's just more stuff to clutter a room. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm interested in the Rainbow Brite game that PacManPlus is working on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
