WispFollower Posted June 13, 2021 Share Posted June 13, 2021 Digging into the members' rom vault, I finally got to try Saguaro City! I was on the fence when it came out, as it looked interesting, but there was not much video. Having now tried it, I can say wow! Excellent game. It has many of my favorite qualities of this kind of pick up and play game- passive objective, direct threats, fast action, and nice differences in difficulty levels. The controls are nice, and the action can get frantic! I am completely hooked. I will have to start trying out all the others I have missed out on to find more favorites! Anyone have any lesser talked about/known favorites in the vault? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd asked about the manuals a couple times. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+GoldLeader Posted June 13, 2021 Share Posted June 13, 2021 I just wanted to chime in and say these Club games are great! The first one was quite playable and I think I may have only tried it once before in an arcade a long time ago...And the console port is Amazing! I finally had to quit paying the other night because I looked up and it was going on 4AM! I feel that, unlike some of the old releases (from back in the day), these games feel like they've been play tested to make sure they play right! 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not sure what day it arrived because the mail delivery person tends to hide the packages behind a pot. But that made for a nice Easter egg! Excellent surprise this year. Thank you Collectorvision Team for all your hard work, the improvements, and your love of providing a pleasant surprise for the fans! You really are keeping that wonder of summer 1982 alive! So far, I cannot get the “purple text” game to work on my F18a modded Adam (this is my main machine right now). Everything is scrambled. I will pull out the SGM to see if that changes anything. I will also try it on a stock RF Colecovision. What i have noticed is with some systems that have f18a installed that you may need to power the system on. wait a few seconds then hit reset and the game will work fine. A similar problem happens with boot hill but a simple reset will fix it. It has to do with the f18a needing a little more time to initialize once powered on but the reset leaves the f18a pwoered on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, this was suggested before. Both phattyboombatty and I have tried resetting the system many times but this doesn't solve the problem - still garbled graphics. My F18A has the 10uF mod on the reset line while phatty's system has the original 1uF capacitor so that also makes no difference with this cart.

As for Cavern Fighter, I have the excellent homebrew Super Cobra Arcade for the Atari 2600 so no need for that either. What I don't have and definitely want from Collectorvision is Mr Do!'s Wild Ride. I know they are working on that as they have mentioned it in another thread and as they've made it public, surely they wouldn't then turn around and make it a secret, club member only game, eh? Surely not. The irony of your post isn't lost on me!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zaphro72 Posted June 14, 2021 Share Posted June 14, 2021 @retroillucid and @coleco_master since the new website is password protected and the password comes with the games package can we get the two new club games added to the vault right now instead of having to wait for them?

Thank you for responding! $150 seems like a good price for everything the membership offers. I’ll be waiting patiently for the end of the year, so I can finally join the club. ?? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you don’t feel like waiting, they can be dumped to a rom image with the MaxFlash Cart/CV Adapter made by AtariMax. It’s another great product by AtariMax that is widely used by Atari Computer users but also has numerous adapters for dumping cartridges to rom images for numerous videogame systems. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might have to look into getting one of those. I like putting my carts away and playing on either the AtariMax or Phoenix for convenience.

The 2021 Club was definitely advertised that it would include the ROMs as well as the physical carts, or I wouldn't have signed up. I'm still waiting for the 2021 secret game roms to be made available, please. They were indeed included in the first two years.
