Great video! Ok-I'm, confused about the expansion cart for the Vic-20. Is it just for disk games, because it fits right where the game cartridges do-so it would block those, right??
It mainly contains all the cartridges ever made for the Vic-20 all on one cartridge. It also includes 20 some or maybe it's 30 some tape based games including several written in the last few years. It also includes extra RAM allowing it to operate as a memory expansion module.
I don't see Jetpac. If you go to the mega-cart web site (YouTube won't allow a URL in a comment but mega-cart is the middle part of the URL) it lists all the games on the cart.
One of the better ones on the VIC-20. I find most of my Vic carts are of games I'd rather play on my C64. The exception being text adventures on cart like Pirates Cove and Adventure Land.
Now, does this require one or two controllers? Most home conversions I know of require two, although I'm not sure about the Colecovision.

@dave4shmups It only requires one controller.

Ok, thanks! That sounds fantastic! Does it have Jetpac? That's one I'm really interested in.

LOL, I was wondering if I inspired you to do this video. Great job. I LOVE this game. Too bad the 2600 version needs a special joystick to play.
I'd love to see some more vic-20 videos Marlinlee. :)

Thanks for showing this one! I can't seem to get my cart, the Vic 20 and the Vic's power supply together all at the same time to play it.

Omega Race for the Commodore Vic-20 was one of the only game cartridges I had for this computer.

I keep seeing this game come up on ebay but have never known what it was like.
Fascinating. I can see where Geometry Wars is coming from.
Great video. Thanks for showing us :)
