 |
|
Does anyone have more info on the Romtec (Bazin) Colorvision games? I own one now (finally), but noe games. There were 5 games released as I see on the HHM site, - but was one of them like a "pack-in" game? Do all 5 games have an original box plus manual?
Thanks for any info,
mndn |

It definitely came with a 'pack-in' game... I think Monster Chase was always the included game. I've never seen that one in a separate box.
All the others I've seen boxed individually, at least in photos... |

Thank you for your knowledge. Yes, these are the games I've seen boxes with before, never seen a Monster Chase box either. |

Nifty. I had no idea this existed.
Decent video:

Here's a video of my Colorvision, an ultra-rare 1984 tabletop video game system that was released by several companies, such as Romtec, Bristol, Bazin, Altic, and possibly others. The Romtec one seems to be by far the most known, followed by the Bristol. One variant is reportedly yellow.
Five games were released for the Colorvision. They are Beasts Planet, Horror House, Jungle Boy, Monster Chase (pack-in), and Submarine.
The system often gets compared to the Entex Adventurevision, but this one is quite possibly even rarer. However, it often sells for far less, because not many people have heard of it.

Hah, yeah, I was just about to append my own post...
According to my own website, I actually have a Monster Chase box... 
Or, at least I did, but I can't find any photos of it. I'll check my few remaining games, I think I kept Colorvision, but not sure.
So, if Monster Chase was available separately, does anyone have evidence of the console itself being packed with a different game? That's always a possibility as well... |
