ColecoVision › Box Classifications › Coleco 2 Coleco 2 - The Edge-to-Edge RestyleUnited States · 1984
How to identify it
No white border - painted artwork runs to all four edges. The two bottom corners carry the COLECO ELECTRONICS block and the line For Use With ColecoVision and ADAM Family Computer System; which corner takes which varies by title.
By 1984 Coleco had stopped selling the arcade and started selling the picture. The white frame and the cabinet photograph are gone; the artwork is a commissioned painting that bleeds to all four edges, and the arcade credit has shrunk to a line of small type under the title. The other change is a business one. Coleco was now shipping the ADAM Family Computer, and the foot of every Coleco 2 box says so. If a box names the ADAM, it is not a 1982 box. 9Titles

About this listThese records come from the museum’s ColecoVision catalogue, so this page grows as the catalogue does. Box scans, release years and rarity are the catalogue’s; the classification on each card is either the box variant recorded against that title or, where none is recorded, an attribution taken from how the release is filed. Box classification is a collectors’ convention rather than anything Coleco or CBS ever printed on a box, and reasonable references disagree at the edges. If you own something listed here that does not match what you see, or a box that is not listed at all, please get in touch — a photograph of the front is worth more than any description. |
