Cool! I wonder if the creators and fans of Colecovision could of ever imagined new titles so many years later?

Oldschool games, some people just don't "get it"...

I don't think any of us imagined the possibility for homebrews after our favorite systems died more or less by the mid-80s. What's fascinating are the three systems that happen to lead the way in terms of quality and quantity of homebrews: Atari 2600, Vectrex and ColecoVision. Nevertheless, I think every pre-crash (and many post crash) systems have had a decent number of homebrews, save for (top of my head) the RCA Studio II, Coleco Telstar Arcade, Microvision and Adventurevision, which are all in the "fat chance" category.
