The hardware could deliver near-perfect duplicates of arcade classics like Donkey Kong, Frogger, and Burger Time, without the need for a fist full of quarters. Had the machine not delivered such performance, bundling Donkey Kong would hardly have swayed the masses.
Directly on the heels of the console's success, Coleco decided to release three ill-fated expansions for the ColecoVision. The first was a plug-in device with the nondescript name "Expansion Module 1. Atari quickly sued , claiming the expansion module infringed its hardware patents.
Coleco proved that it made the device with off-the-shelf parts and that it only provided power and clock input and video output without processing or translating Atari cartridges.
Subsequently, the companies settled out of court with Coleco licensing Atari's patents. The Expansion Module 1 would eventually become a self-contained Atari clone called the Gemini that did not sell very well. A second device, Expansion Module 2, was a "fully-functional driving unit. Unlike the previous module, which utilized the ColecoVision's expansion bay, the accessory plugged into the controller port.
It came bundled with the arcade game Turbo but did not play like the arcade version because of the gas pedal. Instead of being analog, the accelerator was actually a digital switch either on or off, making speed control clunky.
Because of its limitations, the racing wheel was not well-received. The third and last ColecoVision expansion was the Adam home computer. Like other video game companies, particularly Mattel and its Intellivision Master and Keyboard Components, Coleco envisioned a home gaming system that users could convert into a home computer.
However, the Adam was plagued with system-critical bugs. Another early 80s two-page ad dedicated to Expansion Module 3, better known as the Adam Home Computer. Additionally, the timing for the device was terrible. Less expensive, dedicated personal computers had already flooded the market, making sales for the Adam abysmal.
It launched in August, intending to sell , units by the end of the year. Plagued by delays, shortages, and the subsequent bad press, Coleco ended up selling less than , units, many of which were defective, before pulling the plug. At the height of ColecoVision's success, the home-arcade market was headed for another crash. Affordable personal computers that could do the same thing and more than consoles became the "in-item," and in , the console market imploded.
Coleco struggled on for another two years before pulling out of the electronics industry in Pulling the plug Remember, its early success was in non-electronic toys, so that's what Coleco fell back on.
