A quick shot this week on the blog: I really like the ColecoVision as a retrodev platform, but I'm not a fan of the 12-second boot screen that also claims every program ever is copyright Coleco.
So today we fix that.

If you have one of these, CVBasic now handles the spinners and Roller Controller for the Colecovision. You only need to read it using CONT1.SPINNER and CONT2.SPINNER. Compile the bleeding-edge code from git https://github.com/nanochess/cvbasic #retro #retrogaming #colecovision

New blog post time!
This week's game is Gateway to Apshai, the last original game in the Dunjonquest series that blends early action RPG and roguelike ideas in an interesting, friendlier, and more "consolized" way than the complex computer games it's related to.
Perhaps most surprisingly to me, you can even play it on a ColecoVision!

Pyrebirds per ColecoVision: il clone di Phoenix entra in beta e cresce ogni giorno

@giochi
I'm developing Akalabeth for Colecovision. Just a little video of my work-in-progress. #retro #retrogaming #colecovision https://youtu.be/Shry64lalDU
@aoineko @angiebaby not to forget the #SEGA SG-1000, which is basically the same hardware of the #ColecoVision (and it's the base for what then became the #MasterSystem) 😄
@angiebaby #MSX and #ColecoVision share the same CPU (Z80), the same Video Processor (TMS9928) and have a close Sound Generator (SN76489 vs AY8910). MSX come with 8/16KB of RAM while Coleco have only 1KB.
So yes, they are very similar pieces of hardware, and it makes sense that an emulator for one would work for the other with minor changes.

Tutankham es uno de esos juegos en los que pestañeas y te das cuenta de que te están acorralando sin piedad. Lanzado en 1982 por Parker Brothers, este título de acción y exploración se convirtió en un habitual de #Atari2600 #Intellivision #ColecoVision y #Videopac
