Along with the Mattel Aquarius came another US microcomputer that did not last very long - the 1983 Coleco Adam.

New blog post! It's part five of my quest to make my very own #ColecoVision. This time, I let other people build one too, and make sure I actually included all the parts! There's still some bugs to work out, but I do still love my first clone system.

Make Your Own ColecoVision At Home (Part 5 - Making More) My homemade ColecoVision clone is improved to a point where others can reliably build it. Further improvements are met with mixed results, and the overall cost of building a unit has gone up.

This ColecoVision cartridge was in my house fire… 🔥

The case melted into a plastic blob… but the board inside survived.

So what was it?

Hey,I kept forgetting to tell you, but finally, @number1hurtsfan.bsky.social, your friend from across the alley, salvaged something the other day while he was cleaning your house for your ma a while ago. He knows where it is in his garage, but we'll get it out when we can. ColecYision. #ColecoVision

A collection of seven books about the early years of gaming. They are sitting in a pile atop a wooden table.

Feels so great to finally have the complete @jamielendino.com collection! 📚

Thank you so much, Jamie, for helping us get these on the shelves! 🙏 ♥️

The cover of Frenzy, which shows the left third of a ColecoVision console at a slight angle and some fun red digital-ish graphic designy stuff behind it

New book! I am excited to unveil Frenzy: The ColecoVision Games That Brought the Arcade Home. A celebration of a short, thrilling time in video game history centered on this console. Available in print www.amazon.com/dp/1957932139 and Kindle www.amazon.com/dp/B0GMXSD4YN #retrogaming #colecovision

A 40x40 pixel-graphic display of red button on a white bezel, each of which is casting a shadow. The graphic is divided into a 5x5 grid of 8x8 tiles. Thanks to the drawing being shifted a bit off-center, each line of pixels only has two colors in it except for the leftmost column, which often has three. When being displayed on a period system, the rivets and shadows on the left-side column would need to be rendered via sprites or other display techniques. The rest is doable purely via character graphics.

#retrocomputing stuff. I've been trying to get as much power out of the old 1981 TMS9918A graphics chip in the #ColecoVision, #TI-99/4A, and original #MSX. I get two colors per 8x1 slab of pixels, and I can get most a very nice pushbutton graphic with drop shadows as long as it's off-center...

My early video games were on cassette 🤣
