Just got a copy of Arcade Express from the publishers of Electronic Games.
There is an interesting announcement by Coleco that they will be releasing
an Expansion Module #3 this year which will be an add on memory unit containing
'1,000,000' bits (I guess 128K bytes). It will be sold along with a 'Super
Donkey Kong' cartridge which will have all 4 boards that are in the arcade
version as well as the intermissions between boards. Other games will be
released in the 'Super' series including Zaxxon, Turbo, Donkey Kong Jr.,
and others (about 6 or 7 for 1983). They will all feature arcade type title
screens and intermission sequences. The unit (w/ Super Donkey Kong) is
intended to sell for 'under $120'. There was no info on what other Super
series games will cost. (If Zaxxon is $49 now....could be expensive)
