Pixelboy Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 Happy New Year, Colecovisioneers! May 2023 bring you peace, prosperity and good health, despite possible new virus variants and economic downturns... Okay, not exactly the most wishful thinking. But it's the New Year, we can at least be cautiously optimistic, can't we? As most of you know, I released my last batch of new ColecoVision homebrew games last week. I'm still not able to program the cartridge PCBs just yet, but things are moving along towards that. That's all I can say about it for now, aside from the fact that I hate to keep people waiting. I do thank everyone who have enough trust in me to give me their money even though I'm not able to ship their games yet. Hopefully it will be a short wait. So what's next for Team Pixelboy? Two words: Trading cards. The Canadian series of ColecoVision trading cards is essentially done, but I'll wait until the homebrew series are ready before sending all the card templates to the printer later this year. With all the legacy cards now done, I will focus exclusively on the various homebrew series (Team Pixelboy, Opcode Games, CollectorVision, etc.) in 2023. My plan is to finish up all the series so I can place a single print order with the card printer, and then later ship all these series to ColecoVision fans in one single order-processing operation. Aside from that, I have one more project I need to do with CollectorVision within the next few months, and then I'll be riding off into the proverbial sunset. But it won't be quite the end for Team Pixelboy games, because as I stated two years ago, I've handed over most of my games to other ColecoVision homebrew publishers. Below is the full list again, but keep in mind that seeing a game in this list doesn't mean that the publisher has any real obligation to release new copies of said game. It just means they have dibs on making new copies if they so choose, so you should contact them directly to enquire about their intentions.

Pixelboy Posted January 29 Author Share Posted January 29 Quick update: All the carts are now assembled, and I just finished inserting the carts and manuals into their boxes. Tomorrow I'm going to start preparing packages for those who already paid for their orders (which is the vast majority). The ladies at the post office will be seeing my face a lot during the next couple of weeks. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pixelboy Posted February 14 Author Share Posted February 14 Quick update: All paid orders have been shipped, and I only have three or four orders for which payment is still pending. Arabian is now sold out, but I have several unclaimed copies of Space Shuttle and Utopia, so if anyone's on the fence about acquiring either of those titles, now's the time to go for it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pixelboy Posted February 15 Author Share Posted February 15 Warning to all: All copies of Space Shuttle are now tied to orders and so the game is now sold out. I still have copies of Utopia, if anyone is interested. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColecoGamer Posted February 18 Share Posted February 18 Is R-type still available? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pixelboy Posted February 18 Author Share Posted February 18 Not on my end, but you should keep an eye on this page. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pixelboy Posted February 28 Author Share Posted February 28 To whoever this may concern: Arabian is sold out, Space Shuttle is sold out, and I'm down to only two copies of Utopia in stock. After those two copies are sold, that's it, so if you're on the fence about purchasing Utopia, now is the time to make up your mind! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pixelboy Posted March 4 Author Share Posted March 4 Utopia is now sold out. Please refer to the first post of this thread if you want to know how to get previously-released Team Pixelboy ColecoVision titles. Many thanks to everyone who supported my endeavour of publishing ColecoVision games over the years! 5 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johny_lovin_it Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 Is this your last task before retiring? So who will be the new people to make these games and new ones in the future? And are they the ones I email if I want to buy anything? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pixelboy Posted April 25 Author Share Posted April 25 The "last task" I was referring to in the original post is now done and behind me (I completed it about a week ago, actually) so I am now turning my full attention to the homebrew series of the ColecoVision trading cards project between now and the end of this year.. The "new people" are well-known and well-established ColecoVision homebrew publishers: http://collectorvision.com http://opcodegames.com And of course, there's the AtariAge Store attached to these forums. You can contact Albert (the administrator of the forum) if you want more info. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johny_lovin_it Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 (edited) Oh that's right; Collectorvision. I forgot about them. I like their stuff. I just found that Penguin Land game I've always liked from the Master System so I'm happy about that. Now I need the Penguin Adventure from Opcode. What I would really like from PixelBoy if anyone is ever willing to sell is Children of the Night. Any horror of dracula game, I would really like to have. And btw, Opcodegames website has nothing. I've tried many times there and I only see the sgm module. I got an email of their upcoming releases and I was told to pre-order them but I have no way of doing so, even though I already subscribed a long time ago and I recently paid for a membership. So I'm still waiting on what's next. Well, I wish you luck with your cards. I wish I had been ahead of the game with your games so I can only hope someone will like to sell any on ebay or something.

Crapahute Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 Children of the Night is on the list of the future re-releases : Team PixelBoy Children of the Night Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johny_lovin_it Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 I saw. That's good to know. I hope they can release The Goonies. There's the sequel on the NES but I need the first one first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
