Notes

The fuller version of doubledown's modified ColecoVision: composite A/V, power and reset buttons, and a pause control the console never had from the factory.

What the console gains

  • A picture a modern television can use, from the composite signal the modulator is already generating.
  • A power switch and a reset button, neither of which a stock ColecoVision has.
  • Pause - a stock machine cannot stop a game at all.

doubledown supplied these to order under the name Viking Video Games and stopped years ago, so the run is finite. The plainer Super CV, without the pause control, is catalogued separately. EXACTLY WHAT "ETC" COVERS on this unit - a fast-boot BIOS is the usual fourth item - wants confirming from the console.
