Sorry for the lack of magazine scans last few weeks but I've been working on something I'm super hyped about and will be releasing in the near future hopefully. Still cramming features into it and polishing things. Here's a sneak peak of it...

Thanks to Ukie for taking our concerns seriously, and a huge thanks to @kendraserra.bsky.social for their tireless legal work on this. They deserve to be considered a folk hero.

A 3D printed ColecoVision controller that I custom designed. Layout similar to an NES controller, but with the full 12 button keypad in the middle. Small shoulder buttons are wired to the two extra Super Action Controller buttons.

A closer look at the shoulder buttons, which are wired to the two extra Super Action Controller Buttons.

Need some cash while I develop products/get through some repairs/raise my children, so I'm making and selling some GOOD ColecoVision controllers! I have enough right now to make 10 of em, and they're $40 a piece. First come, first serve - DM me if you want one!

This is the year of the Shoog-A-Loos. If you understand that joke, you are REQUIRED to come.

I've updated retrogamecabling.com with more systems, more custom items, better color handling, updated all the examples, and also an example from my own messy setup. It looks MUCH better in this view than in real life, haha :)
Take a look!

This is sold! Thank you!
