Yes, the 2nd game has never been ported to the ColecoVision It's not an arcade game, but it could easily be one for sure You'll understand once you see what the game is Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oy, if we can get Dino Eggs that would be the best, one of my most favorite games on the C64 that is still amazing today! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zyzzle Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 Dino Eggs would be a total Holy Grail! Wow, wow. But, I'm guessing Phoenix for the 1st secret game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Itchy Scratchy Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 (edited) 2 hours ago, Swami said: There's always Bounty Bob Strikes Back! I have been in contact with Bill Hogue for about 5 seconds. I sent him emails repeatedly which he eventually answered when I emailed his brother, at least I think it was his brother. I get it, he's a busy man as well as being an actual figure in this industry that stands out. I started out with asking a few questions about ports which he stated he was not involved with. He said that he was approached a few years back about intellivision and a cell phone versions. His basic attitude was he was happy that he was still making money on the game all these years later. When I went to follow up because I wanted to bring BBSB to the Colecovision he no longer responded to my emails. This going on now, almost a year. So, I have come to the conclusion that I would have to either show some money up front or just do it and risk some kind of litigation. I would rather use my valuable time to work on the 50 other games on my list than to take six months to create a game that I could not legally release. Don't get me wrong, I love to make ports because it hones my programing skills however I would love to see new games come to the table. Coleco Vaporware games are cool to fill in, Dino Eggs to be specific. Then again it would be nothing new that you can play in an emulator for another system.

ZooKeeper would be incredible. However, it would need to come with a warning label on the side of the box saying that playing with the original ColecoVision controller may cause severe arthritis.

retroillucid Posted December 12, 2020 Author Share Posted December 12, 2020 Both Club games are not vaporware or previsously unreleased games Although, both would have been incredible if they were released back in the days, no doubt about it 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rodge2001 Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 If under 200 members will the 2nd secret game see a regular standard release outside of the club? Or would it become next year's club's secret game? Maybe club members can opt to purchase the 2nd secret game if under the 200 goal. I just wouldn't want the game, whatever it may be, to end up scrapped and not see an eventual release. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
