Lucky son of a bi... ! (I'm kiiding )

Congrats J-P . that's nice stuff!

I remember wanting one of these when I saw them in the gaming magazines almost 30 years ago, but still another Coleco-related item I've YET to see in person!

[Armonigann]

That is really is a great find! That coleco adaptor is neat. I wonder how well that thing works w/ colecovision games.

[NIAD]

Wow! That is a tremendous find/score and the condition of the items, boxes, styrofoam and manuals looks immaculate. Congrats.

[Cebus Capucinis]

Give me that or I'll ban you!

Just kidding, very, very awesome score! How rare are the actual consoles vs. the CV adapter for them? Would it be easier to find a Spectravideo than the adapter, say?

Very nice. I like the Spectravideo stuff, and FYI did a 3-part Youtubeon my collection.

Very nice video and collection you have.

What i would love to find is a spectravideo svi 838 and a sv 606 adapter.

I have a SV-328 and I've always wanted one of those Colecovision adapters but they're so rare. I think I've seen two in my entire life (three now). There's also an MSX adapter but I've never seen one of those in person.

the MSX adapter is the SV 606 i talked about. I have never seen on in real.

the spectravideo sv 318 i got , in fact, was the first one i saw since 1983 where i had seen it in a shop. The coleco adapter i had only seen it on flyers. I couldn't believe i met by fortuity a guy that had this set to sell. I was at a gaming event (where i didn't plan to go initialy because too far) , i was presenting my games on colecovision to few guys. it was late the event was closing , a guy come and say to us "just in case you are interrested , i have a bunch of colecovision to sell , i'm selling all my retro collection,... and i have a computer with colecovision adapter a spectravideo i believe"... I think i took few seconds to really realize what he said!... it was late, he is going to leave , so i just took his email... and 1 month and half after i got my spectravideo ... but also a bunch of colecovisions , and a videopac g7200 white i was looking for since years.(i had already the black one ) (you know the odyssey 2 with the integrated b&w screen) , and a bunch of genesis games...
