| Easter Egg: Press and hold the FIRE button while turning on the console (or emulator). Then a tiny (2 x 2 pixel) dot will appear in the top row. If you shoot this, "Program by" and "S. Kitchen" are written alternately at the top of the screen. Does not work on the original 6-switch model. |
| Company Information |
|
Coleco is an American company founded in 1932 as Connecticut Leather Company. They entered the video game console buisness with the Telestar in 1976. A great leap forward was the release of the Colecovision in 1982 with its superior arcade-quality graphics, which no other console of this time could match. They also created games for other systems such as the Atari VCS. In the same year Atari sued Coleco for its Expansion Module, that enabled the Colecovision to be compatible with the Atari 2600. However the case dismissed and as an result Coleco produced its own Atari 2600 clone- the Coleco Gemini. |
