Talk:ColecoVision - Knowledge

1869:

believe that sales outside NA were "negligible" as the ColecoVision was heavily marketed by CBS Electronics with bespoke versions of the ColecoVision created and sold in the UK, France, Germany, Italy, Denmark, Australia and even Argentina. I recall it being available in every major electronics retailer in the UK when I purchased mine. While it came to market in Europe and Australia 11 months later than NA it was still on-sale for a good 12+ months during which time sales would hardly have been "negligible". By way of an example, and this is not meant to be a reference for an official sales figure, but an Italian member of AtariAge states that "a former CBS Italy manager told me, it was 1994, that Colecovision sold 260,000 consoles in Italy". Rather than "negligible", my belief is that total sales across these regions would have been at least 1 million if not more.

1699:

50% of first-quarter sales, but ColecoVision sales were below those of the year-ago quarter, when more than 500,000 units were shipped." A July 20, 1984, Wall Street Journal article reports that "Coleco said sales of electronic products were "significantly lower than those for the second quarter and first half of 1983," when Colecovision games and video game cartridges were still quite strong." A January 4, 1985 Wall Street Journal article confirms that sales of ColecoVision were essentially dead by that ponit as "James Chanos, an analyst for Deutsche Bank Capital who also has a short recommendation on Coleco, says the company faces an additional $ 100 million electronics write-down. The second write-down would be for inventory and receivables associated with Coleco's slow-selling ColecoVision video-game system and for additional Adam assets."

1335:) I've seen ONE and I wish I had bought it but I didn't have a ColecoVision. IIRC, the pistol grip had four different colored trigger buttons, there was a sideways spin wheel on top with the 8-way joystick mounted near the front and the keypad between the stick and wheel. The design was ambidextrous so that either hand could be used on the grip with the other hand operating the stick and keypad. In contrast, most one button joysticks had the button at the upper left corner- making them difficult to operate using the left hand on the stick. Here's a page with some images. 2741:

article, which you tried and failed to source to on the page and which I have also read a translation of. The hardware was not, however, based on the "specification" of the ColecoVision, which was a Z80-based machine. The Famicom was 6502 based with a custom graphics chip that was more capable than the TI chip in the ColecoVision. To say that the "specifications" are generally the same or that the "design and technology" are "owed" to ColecoVision goes far beyond any claim in the Niekki Electronics article and therefore constitutes original research.

negligible. Even if the company had sold 900,000 systems in the first half of 1984, the company would have had to sell 3.7 million systems in the second half of 1983 to reach that six million figure, and it is more likely the company would have needed to sell four million or more. Even if Coleco had found a way to quadruple production of the system in the second half of 1983, they would still not have managed to move that many units. The six million figure, therefore, appears unsubstantiated.

3071: 2484: 1239: 1776:

we do with the page now? The six million figure obviously has to go, but what goes in its place? I guess at this point the only solid figure we have is the 1.9 million, so the article can just state that figure, go on to say that sales fell off with the crash, picked up again slightly with the Cabbage Patch deal offer in 1984, though still down from the early 1983 peak, and then fell to almost nothing in 1985. Let me know what you think.

636: 2476: 706: 1065: 270: 249: 1471:

Everyone is in agreement that the Wii U was "next gen" to the Wii and the Switch was a mid-cycle replacement. Nobody disputes this. We don't retroactively group the Wii U with it's predecessor because it flopped. So why are we doing it to the 5200? The discrepancy of all this is irreconcilable. Bumping the ColecoVision, 5200, and Vectrex to Third Generation cures every problem.

1052: 280: 218: 1749:(a year and 4 months from the release, which is pretty quick). And 1984 was also the year when they did the Cabbage Patch/Colecovision crossover during the height of the Cabbage Path craze (when there were waiting lists, long lines, sellouts and fights, etc.), where anyone who bought a Colecovision before Nov. 14th would get a free Cabbage Patch doll. There's also 3179: 1998:

products. The increase in shipments of the ADAM Family Computer System in 1984 was largely offset by provisions for price reductions and returns recorded in the last half of the year." So the bulk of the $ 98.5 million in sales for 1984 can be attributed to sales of the ColecoVision, it's accessories and games cartridges.

1691:

Colecovision video games and more than eight million software cartridges for its system and those of others." A February 16, 1983, article in the same newspaper states that "Coleco expects to ship 550,000 Colecovision consoles , as many as it shipped all of last year. Coleco has already shipped 250,000 this quarter."

Third, wikipedia is not in the habit of presenting rumors as fact unless it is a pervasive rumor backed by many reliable sources. You have provided none in this case. This is also a rumor that is unfounded. There is an interview with a member of the Coleco team that negotiated with Nintendo and he

2730:

A couple of points here. First, the "sources" you provided are not in proper citation form, making them impossible for anyone else to check. You do not need to provide sources that are freely available on line, but you need to at least give publication information and reproduce relevant quotes from

1790:

Well, we have to be precise. So if the end of '83 figures is all we can concretely nail down right now, then we have to change the figure to that but note it being Dec. 1983. We also have other things that need to be changed now as well (which is why its good you broached this subject), such as the

1730:

I believe I have shown that the cited source on this page is not reliable for the total number of ColecoVision units sold over its lifetime, but I would be interested in hearing other opinions or seeing other sources presented. If none are forthcoming in the near future, I am gonig to remove the six

1554:

That's weird that the redirect wasn't created automatically when I moved the page. Oh well; no worries; it's there now. As for that guy's claim, I still disagree. The words are all bunched up, and the company's own documentation seems to support "ColecoVision". I think it was supposed to be a play on

1414:

The famicom/nes is more advanced with more colours, multicoloured sprites. However, the colecovision has the exact same specifications and capability as the Sega SG-1000 which is classified as third generation. When the colecovision came out in 1982, with it's higher resolution, it clearly relegated

1299:

The roller controller was neither an expansion (it plugged into the joyports, not the expansion bay) nor unique (there were trackball controllers released for the Atari 2600 and Atari 5200, at the least). Its existence ought to be added to the main ColecoVision article, though, along with note of the

2857:

You have proven time and time again to have a deep seated bias agains any change and to ignore whole post. The very first sentence in this section is "The last time I has some words that were put added to make original research, instead I have fixed the issues and quoted the source directly" and you

Added from an actual interview with multiple sources about how the CV was the inspiration and the reason for the current design of the Famicom and NES: "== Nintendo Entertainment System == The Nintendo Entertainment Systems current design and technology is owned to the Colecovision. Which along with

2008:

As can be seen, sales of the ColecoVision through 1984 and 1985 must have been modest compared to 1983 but also must have been in the hundreds of thousands for the sales and inventory figures to be in the many tens of millions. Unit sales per million dollars would also have been higher than in 1983

1834:

While we don’t have any specific figures for countries outside North America, sales in those regions were negligible. There is only one pre-Internet source that ties Coleco and six million together, and that is ‘’Game Over’’ discussing ‘’Donkey Kong’’ sales, which was not exclusive to ColecoVision.

1470:

Knowledge currently isn't even consistent with itself. The ColecoVision and SG-1000 are for all intents and purposes the same machine released 11 months of each other yet the SG-1000 is in the Third Generation. The 5200's placement is also logically inconsistent since it's effectively Atari's Wii U.

2885:

I will admit that dealing with some of the poor edits you have made has left me a little too revert happy, so I apologize for that. Your claims of bias are pretty laughable personal attacks that you need to halt though. Anyway, I rewrote your addition a bit, and I feel it now reflects the article

2752:

So in conclusion, it would be okay to discuss the ColecoVision as an inspiration for the design of the Famicom and it would be okay to discuss Nintendo's attempt to license that system before deciding to create its own system, but your edit makes too many exceptional and unsupported claims to stand

1775:

Yeah that makes sense to me too. I meant to say above that sales were negligible after 1984 as opposed to after the first half of the year, because as you point out they had the whole Cabbage Patch deal going on. I don't think the 1985 numbers probably had much of an impact. Question is, what do

1694:

A New York Times article dated August 1st, 1983 entitled "Coleco Strong in Marketing" details how many units ColecoVision moved in the first half of 1983 and overall with the line "Since its introduction last fall, Colecovision has sold about 1.4 million units, according to the Video Marketing Game

2661:

I have restored the Technical specifications to the main article adding in a reference to the ColecoVision Technical Manual. This technical manual contains all of the technical specifications that are listed. I did delete the reference to the Zilog Z80A being by NEC, as Coleco sourced their Z80A

1993:

Specific units sold figures are not given in the 1984 and 1985 annual reports, however figures are given for the nominal value of ColecoVision inventories and accounts receivable for those years along with figures for their Consumer Electronics division and the ColecoVision's qualitative effect on

1898:

Sorry if I offended, that was not my intent. And don't get me wrong, I'm not one of those trying to say that sales were 6 million as, like you, I have seen nothing to even remotely back that up. I was just trying to say that sales outside of NA would have been much more than negligible which you

1883:

Seems like you are the one needing to provide sources. Every ColecoVision sold overseas was made by Coleco, CBS just distributed. That 2 million sold figure is everything Coleco sold worldwide. In 1984, the Yankees Group estimated that Coleco had sold 1.6 million ColecoVision consoles in the US

1868:

Could you provide some reference to backup your assertion that sales outside of North America were negligible. You've rapped another person on the knuckles for not providing references but have done just that here with what appears to be a rather dismissive statement. I find it extremely hard to

1698:

ColecoVision news tapers off after that point unfortunately because the Adam Computer and Cabbage Patch Kids draw all the headlines, but an April 18, 1984, article in the Wall Street Journal regarding Coleco's first quarter performance in 1984 states that "Adam and ColecoVision accounted for about

1598:

A quick search of the US Patent and Trademark database reveals that Coleco filed both "COLECO VISION" and "COLECOVISION" word marks as well as graphical versions of both spellings. The two word version appears to have been filed about year before the single word version. Both word marks have since

It would be nice to find a picture of one. They were nothing at all like boxing gloves- and nothing at all like any other game controller available on any other game console before or since. (The closest would be the Milton Bradley MBX with one trigger, three thumb buttons and a 2-axis plus rotate

2981:

Actually, that is a pretty simplistic view of the situation. The ColecoVision was highly successful on its release in late 1982, outselling both the 5200 and the Intellivision. Then the entire industry collapsed, which was not Coleco's fault. It still sold around 3 million even so, which was a

line that played Pong and Squash, and some target shooting games. They also released the Telstar Arcade in 1977, which was a non-programmable, cartridge-based system that played several ball-and-paddle, driving, and shooting games. If you are truly remembering a Coleco console you played in the

Also, on page 3 of the 1984 report it states that by the end of 1984 the "total of ColecoVision inventory and accounts receivable was $ 40.5 million." and that during 1985 "the balance of ColecoVision inventory (will be) sold." It is also important to note that the Accounts Receivable takes into

1588:

If you peruse the documentation accompanying anything sold for the system, at the time the console was referred to by Coleco Industries Inc. as either the "COLECOVISION™", or when not all-caps "ColecoVision™". One could probably make an exhaustive search of the literature, but I would hazard that

Uemura stated that it was the ColecoVision that technologically spurred him and the ColecoVision he had in mind when considering the image of the product. There is also a Rumor that Nintendo asked to distribute the CV and Coleco refused, resulting in them makig the NES out of spite, however, the

There's one that's not listed nor mentioned. I don't remember what it was called, but it was like a 'balancing board' controller that you stood on for games like skiing and other foot/balancing games. I'm also not sure that it was made by Coleco or another company - - - but it was compatible.

2047:

Fair enough and understood. I too believe that around 2.5 million is a believable number hence why I was trying to justify that "well in excess of 2 million" was okay to use. However, I understand from what you've said that this is "original research" as defined by Knowledge and therefore not

3294:

I think you'll find that "balancing board" is for another gaming system. There was never such a balancing board produced, either commercially or as a prototype, by anyone for the ColecoVision and there are no games that support one. Would be better if you got this out of storage and checked.

2807:

Coleco had at the time. Takao Sawano, a member of the development team, brought a full version home to let family play it and were equally as impressed. Takao Sawano, joined Uemera, the head of Famicom hardware, and started designing the hardware based on the specification of the Colecovision.

For 1984, Consumer Electronics total sales was $ 98.5 million, compared to $ 403.9 million in 1983. On page 22 of the 1984 annual report where it is directly comparing 1984 to 1983, it states that "The decline in sales of Consumer Electronics was primarily due to reduced sales of ColecoVision

and at worst unsupported by any evidence. It is true that Uemura and Sawano wanted to create a system with similar capabilities to the ColecoVision, which Nintendo was interested in licensing for a Japanese release. There are sources that back up this point, including the Nikkei Electronics

1702:

What this means is that we know by the middle of 1983 the company sold 1.4 million systems. Sales for the rest of the year are not indicated, but in the first half of 1984 they could not have sold more than an additional 900,000 and probably sold significantly less. After that, sales were

1392:

In my view, the ColecoVision and Atari 5200 belong in the 3rd generation section, as technically they are almost as advanced than the NES. I think the reason for ths split is that North Americans like to class consoles as before and after the Video Games Crash of 1983 - something that means

1350:

I find it fascinating that the first sentence of this article identifies the console as "third-generation", right next to the Major Consoles template, which places it clearly in the second generation. Is there some extra generation, omitted by the template, but taken into account here? Does

1690:

In 1982, the first year the ColecoVision was one the market, the company shipped 550,000 systems. This number is supported by an article in the Toronto Globe and Mail on January 5, 1983, called "Market Perspective" which contains the line "In 1982, said it built and shipped about 550,000

1272:

There was also a fairly high quality trackball expansion called the 'Roller Controller', which came with Slither and also worked with War Games. I think it is noteable because as a piece of consumer video game console hardware, a trackball has never been attempted again to my knowledge.

2184:

Is there some evidence this is actually what they did? We know today that the only difference between having the startup screen and not is the order of the two header bytes (don't we? ;) ) It doesn't bank out the console ROM, is there some other reason they would need to do that?

3000:

Actually, the ColecoVision IS a commercial failure. Now that the 14 million hardware and 100+ million software selling Wii U is counted as a "commercial failure" despite grossing approximately $ 10 billion- BILLION, then ColecoVision is certainly a horrible commercial failure!!

2682:

the Atari 7800 brought back a dead industry after the video game crash of 1983. The two are very similar in power and the NES would not have a noticeable upper hand until 1987 when chips were used to enhance visuals in more games. other systems inspired by Colecovision include

3242:

Actually the ColecoVision cannot play Intellivision cartridges. It is believed by the ColecoVision fan community that Coleco did produce a prototype Intellivision module for the ColecoVision. However, no pictures or other confirmation that it exists has appeared to date.

2012:

Therefore, while definitive figures for ColecoVision units sold is not available for 1984 and 1985 it is perfectly reasonable, based on the financial sales data given above from unimpeachable references, to conclude that sales of the ColecoVision were "well in excess of 2

states that the two companies could not come to terms because Nintendo wanted too high a royalty. The failure to license the ColecoVision was probably a factor in Nintendo deciding to create its own system, but there is no evidence of "spite" or "revenge."

1280:

I doubt it could be made into a full wikipedia article, if you think it can be, then go for it. It's probably a better idea to mention it on this article though. I've seen that controller, almost bought one off ebay, but I got the steering wheel instead.

The ColecoVision definitely should be moved to Third Generation along with the 5200 and Vectrex since those were all in competition with each other. There was considerable if not universal consensus that ColecoVision in particular had launched the Third

ColecoVision came out in the later '70's. I was a kid living in San Jose CA at the time. We moved to PA in 1980, and I had already been playing it for a few years. It did come with Donkey Kong, and the only other game I remember having we Ladybug.

The system was on the market only one more year after that, and all reports were that sales collapsed during that time period. Once again, there is no way the system got anywhere near 6 million; it probably failed to crack 3 million.

When it came out, it was described as third generation. I'm a little surprised that it is matter-of-factly called second generation in the article with no reference to how it was actually described at the time.

Given the low sales, and short 3 year lifespan, why does this article not point to it being a commercial failure? Its sales are less than either Atari's or Mattel's, so it needs to be noted that it failed in the
