Team Pixelboy has announced that they’ll be releasing 17 new ColecoVision games in the coming months in support of a ColecoVision homebrew author whose wife and new child are undergoing serious medical issues. You can get all of the details, including how to order, in the official AtariAge thread.
The 17 games are a mix of game ports and new creations, with most being conversions from the popular MSX computer standard, as well as a few from the Atari 2600. Even though these are considered budget releases at only $29.95 each plus shipping (when homebrews like these are usually $50+), the game cartridges come in a sturdy two-piece box with manuals. The game titles are as follows:
- Caverns of Titan
- Cold Blood
- Danger Tower
- Deep Dungeon Adventure
- Frostbite
- Heroes Arena
- J.E.T.P.A.C.
- Kaboom!
- Kralizec Tetris
- Remember the Flag
- SHMUP!
- Shouganai
- Stray Cat
- Sudoku
- Traffic Jam
- Txupinazo!
- Yar’s Revenge
Here’s a sample video of what you would expect from just one of the games once it’s finished:
If you are a ColecoVision fan, you owe it yourself to buy one or more of these great games in support of a very worthy cause. (NOTE: Most of these games are expected to require the SGM, aka, Super Game Module, which among other things, adds much needed RAM to the ColecoVision. If you don’t already have one, you can get more details at AtariAge.)
