Coleco Chameleon: Retro Vision, modern console
Remember the people of Retro VGS? At the time they proposed the creation of a web-based console cartridges, using the original machinery of the Atari Jaguar for housing. Unfortunately, the campaign of crowdfunding that would bring this console market failed, but now return to the fray with its new Chameleon, and the backing of a classic brand like Coleco.
Anyone wishing to review the most important title of a classic console has at its disposal a lot of resources, starting with emulators and games images that float on the Web. We should also mention alternatives like Living Room Console and Arcade Internet that keep Archive.org, and allow us to play without downloading anything. In other words, enjoy the “retro” experience is easy, as long as we agree to do so on a modern computer. Now, what happens when we want the original hardware? The search for old consoles is increasingly difficult and costly for a natural question: Units in good condition are few, and those who have not let go easily. Given this situation, there is a shortcut to create a modern inspired by old console systems … and that is how we arrived at the Coleco Chameleon.
