Whilst keeping the title of this modern release under his hat at the moment, Dieter is following in the footsteps of Clay Pigeon and Interpol as an unofficial but welcomed new entry into the Videopac most wanted list. Dieter plans to release this title at the Eurocon, which is taking place in The Hague (Netherlands) from Today 29th October until Sunday. In very short supply at the moment so you collectors need to get your skates on Flashpoint is the latest release for the Videopac+ Range with the emphasis on + as its is only compatible with the +consoles, being the G7400 (Jopac and Odyssey3 I presume also).

| TUTANKHAM DISCOVERED  Picture Courtesy of ccc |
Not surprisingly tutemkham has finally materialised, and it would appear to be a full playable version of the game, not a prototype or demo version, furthermore to all our advantages it is the proud possession of Dieter Koenig of.. Classic Consoles Centre who has done us all proud by not only reviewing and adding pictures to his site, but has made the download available for o2em, so we can all have a shot. and from what he says its one corker of a game. |

Ectron
Who??? Well this is a whole new kettle of fish, it would seem a cartridge has been found by a whole new manufacturer previously unheard of in the VIDEOPAC world. A company called Ectron it has immerged produced this game. and only came to light as a internet auction customer discovered this game for sale online more details available here...in Spanish sorry |

Now if they produced
one then possibly they produced more titles, plus this is
clearly a production cartridge from the pictures available at
the site, so there must be more copies of this to be had, don't
you just love it when something like this comes along.

SPIDERMAN - PARKER BROS, |
Well it was rumoured to exist for years.
screen shots were printed in magazine although they were
believed to have been taken from the atari2600 version of this
Parker Bros Game, anyway from what I have read the prototype, a
very lucky collector has taken possession of the EPROM based
cart (Bas Kornalijnslijper). click
TRANSLATE
for more info. The Proto was displayed at the "Retro Game" show held in Holland on June the 19th Organised by the Dutch Commodore club. Oooh... when's the 136 in one cart coming out just added some numbers to the 128 in hope :) consulting detective & the new carts below included maybe ??? |

on the
Old arcade favourite Lunar Lander, Planet
Lander has been written by
Ted Szczypiorski. A big thank you to Ted for continuing to support this console, I have ordered my copy tonight, I'll review it when received, the only downside for us in the UK is that its being aimed at the US collectors by being put in the ODYSSEY 2 style casing anyway the cart is $19 and postage to the UK is only $12 so basically around £18 inc...BILLY BARGAIN !!! anyway BUY IT!

that some people still went to the effort of producing games for
this console, thanks john. I have this and its great !!! and
very cheap at $20 and if you just wanna play games john is also
the creator of the 128 in 1 multicart which pretty much includes
every game ever written for the videopac !!!!, nice if you want
to keep all your prized collection neat while you still play the
games.
