Ngakhale anthu akumbukira mokondwera Nintendo Entertainment System ngati nyumba yoyamba yamakono yotetezera kunyumba, okonda masewera olimbitsa thupi komanso ochita masewera olimbitsa thupi amavomereza kuti panali njira imodzi yomwe inagonjetsa NES muzovomerezeka, zovuta ndi zokhazokha, ColecoVision .
Pafupikitsa zaka ziwiri zapitazo, ColecoVision anaswa malingaliro, malonda a malonda ndipo anali njira yabwino yokhalira yopambana kwambiri mu mbiriyakale, ngati sizinali zogonjetsa makampani mu 1983/84 komanso maseŵero oopsa kuti asinthe console kukhala makompyuta a kunyumba.
Pre-History
M'zinthu zina, dzina la nkhaniyi likanatchulidwa , Coleco: Nyumba yomwe Atari Yamangidwa , monga coleco inakhazikitsa bizinesi yonse pokonza zipangizo zamakono za Atari .
Mu 1975 Pari ya Atari inali yovuta kwambiri m'magulu awiri komanso nyumba zomwe zili ndi nyumba, zomwe zimagulitsa malonda okha, Magnavox Odyssey . Pong atapambana, makampani amitundu yonse amayesa kukwera masewera a pakompyuta, kuphatikizapo Co nnecney Le ather Co mpany (aka Coleco ), yemwe adayambitsa bizinesi yawo ndi katundu wa zikopa ndikuthawira kumapulasitiki opanga mapulasitiki .
Chaka chotsatira Pong atamasulidwa, Coleco adalowa mumasewero a pakompyuta ndi chingwe choyamba cha Pong , Telstar . Kuphatikiza pa kukhala ndi Pong (yotchedwa Tennis pomwe pano), Chipyi idasinthidwa kuti ikhale ndi mitundu iwiri ya masewera, Hockey ndi Handball . Kukhala ndi masewera oposa umodzi kunapanganso Telstar kukhala ndondomeko yoyamba yopatulira dziko.
Ngakhale Atari anali ndi ufulu wa Pong , mwamalamulo sakanatha kulimbana ndi makondomu omwe ankagulitsa msika. Panali kale mdima wozungulira masewerawo monga Atari okha "adakongola" lingaliro ndi kapangidwe ka tenisi ya ziwiri , zomwe ena amanena kuti ndi masewera oyambirira a kanema, komanso magnavox Odyssey's Tennis masewera omwe adatulutsidwa chaka Pong .
Poyamba, Telstar anali wogulitsa wamkulu komanso zaka ziwiri zotsatira, Coleco anatulutsa mitundu yambiri yosiyana, aliyense ali ndi kusiyana kwa Pong ndi kuwonjezeka kwa khalidwe. Microchip imene Telstar amagwiritsa ntchito kwenikweni amapangidwa ndi General Electric. Monga GE sizinagwirizane ndi mgwirizano wokhawo kampani iliyonse yomwe ikufuna kulowa nawo masewera a masewera a pakompyuta ingakhale nayo Pong pogwiritsa ntchito mapepala a GE. Pambuyo pake, ngakhale Atari anatembenukira ku GE chifukwa chinali njira yotsika mtengo kusiyana ndi kupanga makapu okha. Pasanapite nthawi, msika unasefukira ndi mazana ambiri osiyana siyana a Pong , ndipo malonda anayamba kusokonekera.
Pamene anthu anayamba kutopa Pong , Atari anaona kuti angathe kupanga dongosolo ndi masewera osiyanasiyana pa makatilo osinthasintha, ndipo mu 1977 adamasula Atari 2600 (aka Atari VCS ) . Zaka 2600 zinakhala bwino kwambiri, zikulamulira msika mpaka 1982 pamene Coleco anaganiza zobwerera kuchitsime cha Atari tech kwa ColecoVision .
Thupi la Console - Mtima wa kompyuta
Mu 1982 msika wa nyumba unkalamulidwa ndi Atari 2600 komanso Mattel's Intellivision . Ambiri adayesa kupikisana koma adalephera ... kufikira ColecoVision atabwera.
Poyamba makina a makompyuta a 80 anali osakwera mtengo chifukwa cha Commodore 64 , ndipo ogula adali kufunafuna masewera apamwamba. Coleco anaperekedwa pokhala woyamba kukhazikitsa pulogalamu yamakompyuta mu sewero la masewera a pakompyuta. Ngakhale kuti izi zinapangitsa ndalama zambiri kuti zikhale zopitirira 50% kuposa mpikisano, zinapangitsa Coleco kupereka pafupi ndi khalidwe la arcade.
Ngakhale kuti teknoloji yapamwamba inali malo ogulitsira, sikunali kokwanira kuchotsa makasitomala ku mphamvu ya mphamvu ya Atari 2600 . Kuwonjezera pakusowa masewera othamanga, Coleco akuba makasitomala a 2600 iwo amafunikiranso kuba chitukuko cha Atari.
ColecoVision / Nintendo Partnership ndi Atari Clone
Pofika zaka za m'ma 80s, Nintendo adangolowetsa pakhomo la masewera a pakompyuta ndi phokoso lawo la Pong , Masewera a Masewera a TV . Bungwe lalikulu la masewera la Nintendo linali kubwera kuchokera ku mabasiketi ndi kugunda kwawo kwakukulu, Donkey Kong . Pa nthawiyi panali nkhondo yowopsa pakati pa Atari ndi Mattel chifukwa cha ufulu wa masewera a pakompyuta kunyumba kwa Donkey Kong , koma Coleco analowererapo ndi kupereka pomwepo komanso lonjezo lopanga masewera apamwamba kuposa momwe wina aliyense angaperekere. DK anapita ku Coleco yemwe ankachita zosangalatsa zapafupi ndipo anaziyika ndi ColecoVision . Mpata wochita masewera othamanga pamsasa woyendetsa galimoto pakhomo loyendetsa galimoto kumalo opambana.
Chomwe china mu ColecoVision kuswa malonda zolemba ndizoyambitsirana koyamba. Popeza ColecoVision inamangidwa ndi luso lamakinale, monga kompyuta ingasinthidwe ndi zida zowonjezera zomwe zinawonjezera mphamvu zake. Kutsatsa Moduli # 1 kunayambika pamodzi ndi ColecoVision ndipo ili ndi emulator yomwe ingalole dongosololo kusewera ma cartridges a Atari 2600 . Gamers tsopano anali ndi dongosolo limodzi lomwe lingakhoze kuwoloka mapulatifomu, kupereka ColecoVision laibulale yaikulu kwambiri ya masewera kusiyana ndi wina aliyense wotonthoza. Izi zinakakamiza ColecoVision pamwamba pazomwe zidapititsa patsogolo Atari ndi Intellivision m'miyezi ingapo.
Atari anayesa kuchitapo kanthu pomutsutsa Coleco chifukwa chophwanya ufulu wawo wa 2600 , koma panthawiyi masewera a kanema anali atsopano kuti panali malamulo ochepa omwe amateteza ufulu wa umwini. Atari anali atagunda akuyesera kuti ateteze chitukuko chawo zaka zambiri, osati ndi ma Pong koma ndi makhoti omwe amalola masewera osaloledwa kuti apangidwe kwa 2600 . Coleco adatha kupyola pamilandu powatsimikizira kuti amanga emulator awo pamagulu omwe ali pamapulatifomu. Popeza palibe mbali iliyonse yomwe inali ndi Atari, makhoti sanamve kuti ndi kuphwanya malamulo. Coleco yoweruzayi sanangopitirizabe ndi malonda awo koma anapanga padera lokha lokha la 2600 lotchedwa Coleco Gemini .
Masewera
The ColecoVision inachititsa masewera olimbitsa thupi m'nyumba, ndipo ngakhale izi sizinali zolowera zamalonda za ndalama za ndalama, zidakonzedwanso kuti zifanane ndi zomwe ColecoVision anali nazo zomwe zinali zopitilirapo kusiyana ndi wina aliyense amene adawonapo pakhomo.
Chipinda cha Donkey Kong chomwe chinabwera ndi dongosolo si ColecoVision wokhayokhayo yomwe idabwera poyambanso masewera oyambirira, koma ndi Donkey Kong yomwe inamasulidwa kuti ikhale ndi nyumba. Ngakhalenso Nintendo yomasulidwa okha chifukwa cha Nintendo Entertainment System , ndipo posachedwapa Nintendo Wii , ilibe mazenera onse.
Ngakhale ambiri anganene kuti maudindo, makamaka Donkey Kong , ali pafupi kwambiri ndi khalidwe lapamwamba, masewera ambiri omwe amatsatira pambuyo pake sanasonyeze nthawi yochuluka kapena chisamaliro. Nzeru zowoneka ndi masewera a masewerawa analipo maudindo ambiri a ColecoVision omwe sankakhoza kuwotcha moto kwa anzawo awo, monga Galaga ndi Popeye .
Kutsatsa Moduli & # 39; s Giveth ndikuchotsapo
Ngakhale Pulogalamu Yowonjezera # 1 inali gawo la zomwe zinachititsa ColecoVision kugunda, ndizo Ma Modules ena omwe potsirizira pake adzatsogolera kuwonongeka kwa dongosolo.
Chiyembekezo chinali chachikulu ndi chilengezo cha Mafotokozedwe Owonjezereka # # ndi # 3 , omwe sanagwirizane ndi zoyembekeza za gamer. Chitsanzo cha Kuwonjezereka # 2 chinatha kukhala woyang'anira wodutsa Galimoto Yoyendetsa. Ngakhale kuti nthawiyi inali yoyamba kwambiri ya mtundu wake, yodzaza ndi galimoto komanso phukusi la phukusi la Turbo , silinali wogulitsa wamkulu ndipo ndi masewera ochepa okha omwe ankakonzeratu.
Kuchokera pamene ColecoVision idasulidwa, mapulani adayendetsedwa poyera kuti awonongeke katatu monga Super Game Module . The SGM cholinga chake chowonjezera kukumbukira ndi mphamvu ya ColecoVision , kulola masewera apamwamba ndi mafilimu opambana, masewera ndi masewera ena. Mmalo mwa makapu, SGM inali kugwiritsa ntchito "Wamasewera Otchuka a" diskette " omwe amasungira, ma stats komanso ma tepi ya maginito. Masewera angapo anapangidwira kwa Module ndipo idasankhidwa pa 1983 New York Toy Show , kulandira kuchuluka kwa matamando ndi buzz. Aliyense adali ndi chidaliro kuti SGM idzakhala yogunda kuti Coleco adayamba kugwira ntchito ndi RCA ndi Ralph Baer (Magnavox Odyssey) wojambula masewera a masewerawa pa Super Super Module yachiwiri, yomwe ingathe kusewera masewera ndi mafilimu pa diski yofanana ndi a CED VideoDisk Players , chithunzithunzi cha Laserdiscs ndi DVD.
Mwezi wa June, Coleco mosayembekezereka analepheretsa kumasulidwa kwa SGM ndipo patatha miyezi iwiri anachotsa ntchitoyi, ndipo m'malo mwake anatulutsa gawo losiyanitsa lachitatu , kompyuta ya Adam .
Makompyuta a Adam Computer
Panthawiyi, a Commodore 64 anali makompyuta apamwamba kwambiri ndipo anayamba kudula mumsika wa masewera a kanema. Coleco analingalira kuti mmalo mopanga kompyuta yomwe imasewera masewera a pakompyuta, bwanji osakhala ndi sewero la masewera limene limaphatikiza ngati kompyuta? Motero Adamu anabadwa.
Kutenga zambiri mwa zigawo zake kuchokera ku Super Game Module , Adam anali ndi makina owonjezera, Digital Data Pack - makina osungira deta yamakaseti ofanana ndi omwe amagwiritsidwa ntchito kwa Commodore 64 , wosindikiza wotchedwa SmartWriter Electronic Typewriter , pulogalamu yamakono ndi masewera a phukusi.
Ngakhale kuti Coleco anali ndi ufulu wothandizira Donkey Kong , Nintendo anali kumaliza ntchito ya Atari kuti adzalitse DK pa msika wa makompyuta, choncho m'malo mwake masewera adakonzedweratu kuti SGM , Buck Rodgers: Plant of Zoom , masewera a phukusi.
Ngakhale adakalipo, Adam anali ndi zida zogwiritsira ntchito zida zogwiritsira ntchito. Chodziwika kwambiri mwa izi chinali ndi Digital Data Packs zopanda pake zomwe zingasunthike nthawi yomweyo, ndipo maginito amachokera pa kompyuta pamene choyamba chidawombera chomwe chingawononge / kuchotsa makasitomala onse osungirako deta pafupi nawo.
Mavuto aumulungu a Adam omwe ali okwatirana ndi mtengo wake wa $ 750, mtengo wamtengo wapatali kusiyana ndi kugula ColecoVision ndi Commodore 64 kuphatikiza, kusindikizidwa masokawo. Coleco anataya malaya ake pa Adam monga momwe Vuto la Masewera a Masewera a Video Akugunda. Ngakhale Coleco adakonzekera Pulogalamu yachinayi Yowonjezera, imodzi yomwe ingalole makanema a Intellivision kusewera pa dongosolo, ntchito zonse zamtsogolo zinathetsedwa nthawi yomweyo.
The ColecoVision Kutsiriza
ColecoVision inagwira pa msika mpaka 1984 pamene Coleco anatulutsa biz kuti ayang'ane makamaka pa zidole zawo monga Kabichi Patch Kids .
Chaka chotsatira ColecoVision atachoka pamsika, Nintendo yemwe anali ndi chilolezo chotsatira malonda anabwera ku North America ndipo adalamulira makampani a masewero a kanema ndi Nintendo Entertainment System.
Ngakhale kuti Coleco anapeza bwino, anapeza kuti toyamalonda a Adamu adawonongeka kwambiri ndi kampaniyo. Kuyambira mu 1988 kampaniyo inayamba kugulitsa katundu wawo ndi kutseka zitseko zake patapita chaka.
Ngakhale kuti kampaniyo sitikuidziwayi, dzinali linagulitsidwa ndipo mu 2005 Coleco yatsopano inakhazikitsidwa, yodziŵika bwino ndi zipangizo zamagetsi komanso masewera odzipereka.
Mu moyo wake waufupi wa zaka ziwiri, ColecoVision anagulitsa maunite angapo mamiliyoni asanu ndi limodzi ndipo anapanga chizindikiro chosatha kukhala chimodzi mwa mapulogalamu apamwamba kwambiri komanso masewera apamapikisano apamanja a ma 80s.
