A few gems among the gravel.
We were an Atari family back in the day. There were a lot of games for the system and we loved it. Defender, Asteroids, PACMAN, great stuff. But the Colecovision commercials on TV with some snotty kid that kept smugly bragging, "I play it on COLECOVISION" were so enticing. Those graphics were so much better. Anyway, my kid has been on a classic games kick lately with my old Atari 600XL computer. and I ran across this Flashback console and I remembered those commercials. The price was right so I snatched it.
There's a lot of games on here but sadly the AMAZING one's from those TV commercials are not amongst them. There are some great one's like Venture and JungleHunt but most of it is just crappy filler. Thankfully, out of 61 games there are about 15 good ones that make the purchase worth it. For the price, I guess 15 games are worth it. Still, I wish I could play PACMAN or Donkey Kong with the awesome Coleco graphics
