I went to the video store where I usually find VCS games and to my surprise, someone had brought in several Colecovision games. Here's what I got:
Congo Bongo
Lady Bug (Bilingual label..French/English)
Omega Race
Centipede
Beamrider
Super Cross Force (didn't know that Spectravideo made CV games!)
I got these along with a copy of Defender for trade and several VCS games that I will add to my trade/sell list in the Marketplace. Stay tuned!
What does everyone think?
Whole lot including the games I picked up for trade cost me app $18.
Not bad because 2 of the CV games are Rarity 7 games.

Great Colecovision find today!

Nice. I never see CV stuff. I'm still looking for a console BTW.

They're all great games.
Beamrider is really fun..but the CV controllers..the ones I have...were kinda awkward when it came to playing it.

I love when I find Colecovision games. I probably see 40 Atari carts before I ever see a Colecovision cart (I have 5 total that I have found and kept in about 2 years of hunting). The other problem is that I like nice labels and Colecovision labels seem to always be in bad shape. Has anybody else noticed it? The black always gets rubbed on the edge and water seems to kill the labels. Nice find!

Nice find.
When I find CV carts they're always dead common, mostly 'Donkey Kong' and 'Mouse Trap'. I've gathered a few CV carts now, and I'm anxious to play them, just need a PS and maybe a controller.

Sweet score. I have all those except Beamrider... the CV is a great system IMO... if only the hardware was made a little better. That's what Emulation is for, though...
