@mariomanty2 Some games can be played with the keyboard. And often you need the keyboard to set options or start the game. But most games I play with a joystick.
Hey Marlin, I finally got to see on of your videos. Good stuff! I'll see ya later. Send me an e-mail if you get a chance. I don't have your e-mail address.
I must say Marlin I did get my Vic-20 just from this video, I can't wait to get it next week but I don't have the RF Switchbox and I have to find one soon. Great video, cheers!

What do you make of this Marlinlee? Is this some kind of programable cart that you hook up to a pc, load it, and plug it into a coco?
If it is a game pak there wouldn't be any way to hook it directly to the PC. Looks like it contains solid state memory. So if the memory is removable it might be possible to program the memory on a PC.
Nice!

I am really intrigued by this cart, seems this and a VIC 20 is all you need.

Cool. I just have a hard time imagining playing the Vic 20 on a huge 52 inch television. I love it though.

@OldSchoolNYCGamer As long as you have the RF modulator and a modern TV you don't need a switchbox. All you need is an RCA to coax adapter.

Was or is there anything like this for the coco?

I've never heard of anything like this for the CoCo. If there were I would think it would have been mentioned on the coco3 site.
