Cybergoth Posted October 14, 2005 Share Posted October 14, 2005 Hi there! I'm a bit surprised to learn that Eduardo ported the MSX version of Video Hustler to the Coleco. Didn't Konami already do that themselves?!? Greetings, Manuel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ColecoNation Posted October 14, 2005 Share Posted October 14, 2005 Everyone, Thanks for the continued support and interest in ColecoNation. I'm glad everyone is enjoying it. I have some info that should clear up the Video Hustler/Billiards confusion. This was posted on the Digital Press forums by Eduardo in June of 2004. "A few years ago a proto version of Video Hustler for the CV shown up thanks to Adam House. That game was created by Konami for the MSX computers (based on an arcade game of the same name) and it seems Coleco was planning to release it before the crash. Well, so here is the good(?) news: I am including Video Hustler with Yie Ar Kung-Fu. But I didn't just attach the old binary in. I ported the European version of that game, called Billiards, which is basicly the same game but with a better menu system, a different title screen (obviously) and a few bugs corrected. While I couldn't recommend a purchase just because Billiards, I think it is a fun little game, and a nice addition to any collection. " Hi there!
