SuperPacMan Posted December 19, 2023 Share Posted December 19, 2023 Hello. Here’s a video I made about Ghosts ‘N Goblins put out by CollectorVision which I recently got in my experience club. It’s a fantastic port of a very cool game. 5 Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/358450-ghosts-%E2%80%98n-goblins/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

youki Posted December 21, 2023 Share Posted December 21, 2023 This version is impressive. I love the graphics. I guess it uses a 128k cartridge? I read in a comment on the video , it is based on a port of the MSX 2 version? Is it true? Mystery Man did again a incredible job!😍 If somebody has this game and does not like it and want to sell it , please contact me.🙂 1 Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/358450-ghosts-%E2%80%98n-goblins/#findComment-5371197 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I finally be able to test it!... a friend send me his copy to test. Very good version , but on a colecovision 50hz it flickers as the hell. Anyway , i find in the goal to do a port as close as possible than the arcade version on a Colecovision, you can not do better! Amazing work.

nick3092 Posted December 27, 2023 Share Posted December 27, 2023 In my experience, it also fails to boot about 50% of the time on a stock Coleco if a SGM is plugged in. You have to play reset roulette if you get a red screen when it starts to boot. Without a SGM I never saw the red screen and it boots normally every time.

san-d-2000 Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 I also got the Orange screen no matter what with or without SGM plugged in. Toby kindly replaced it and now it works with the SGM unplugged. So there’s definitely something weird going on with this game/cartridge. I’m using an U.S. Colecovision with RGB mod 1 Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/358450-ghosts-%E2%80%98n-goblins/#findComment-5381902 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tekman Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 It also hangs on the orange screen on all three of my ADAM consoles, despite the box saying for the ColecoVision and ADAM. However, it will work fine on the ADAM if you dump it and run it using an ATARIMAX cart.

nick3092 Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 Thanks. Don't think I can justify $100 to dump these. Maybe I can convince Evie to take another stab at getting the CTP to dump them. Ideally it would be nice if CollectorVision would give members the roms for the current year once the carts are all mailed out, instead of making us wait a year and resubscribe to get them. I have no problem paying for the physical carts, but logistically using a flash cart and permanently storing the games is so much easier. 1 Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/358450-ghosts-%E2%80%98n-goblins/#findComment-5382064 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I couldn't agree more. Especially when they don't work correctly in their native cartridge form. 1 Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/358450-ghosts-%E2%80%98n-goblins/#findComment-5382084 Share on other sites More sharing options...

nick3092 Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 (edited) Seems like the cart PCB is just very finicky. Another user got it 100% of the time with or without SGM. They got a new cart, now it works fine. I get the red/orange screen occasionally with SGM. Not enough of a pain to request a replacement cart. Someone with three Adams has issues, someone else with an Adam doesn't. But the interesting part is the three Adams that won't run the cart, run the rom fine. The common denominator I'm seeing here in two of the three scenarios is the cart PCB. Not sure where to point the finger in the F18a issue reported based on the info provided.

I don't know what to say other than there needs to be better testing done on these titles before they are released. This was also the same behavior for Suite Macabre for me and had to use the ATARIMAX to work. Does Suite Macabre work in your ADAM as well?
