Wow my largest thread ever! Kinda wish it was about something more enticing though hehe

What, fraudulent clusterf*cks aren't interesting?

I think this is pretty awesome to see being pulled apart, and talk about openly.
Switchzx's amazing quote -
"I was starting with the hardest to get games first. I realized I was never going to get Magical Chase so gave up on it all, sold up and got out."


Blueraven's quote - "it begins."

So there is something of "Coleco" left and it wasn't just a word these clowns licensed out for use ?

Agreed.

I don't know if the account is legit, but I *hope* it is. :)

Except that Coleco doesn't exist and doesn't have any standards.

They may however, extort a new upfront fee and renegotiate their backend deal to report that the phantom prototype does indeed check out. Whatever happens to the prototype they "totally saw" afterwards isn't their fault.

They'll probably be shown some mini-pc running an emulator and the clown show will go on.

This has been one of the more fun train wreaks to follow. I just read that the Kickstarter is delayed till unknown. That last photo with a DVR board is pathetic.

The reason none of this is real is because he has said many times that he doesn't want to spend his money on this project but others money.

Again this whole thing has been having me grab my popcorn and enjoy.

I dont even know what this thing is supposed to  be... but from all the crap that has been blowing up around it, I am willing to bet it is never released.

First thing that came to mind about independent engineers from Coleco was more smoke and mirrors and their team dressed up in hazmat suits inspecting the prototype.

At this point can't really believe anything these guys say.

I love how they "won't ship a substandard product"...as if quality was in any way a concern here. The product's total non-existence, even as a drawing or a well formed idea, is the actual issue. Quality concerns come in the gamma stage. We're talking amoeba versus dolphin here...

Too far—there's nothing unreal about an amoeba!

Quality? ROFL, it's so funny that is what they blame and proclaim as their reasoning. They dont even have an amoeba, they have 0 nothing nada zilch. At least an amoeba has some cellular structure at all, this thing is more like a fossil, a dead husk that was once used to house a life form - but they crammed some other life form into it and called it theirs. They only have plastic, literally a hollow shell of a system.

I was wrong to kinda want this thread to end some weeks back... It still manages to deliver some lulz. Shame on me...
