Nangona abantu bekhumbula ngokugqithiseleyo i- Nintendo Entertainment System njengeyokuqala ye-arcade yekhontrakthi yasekhaya, abathandi be-retro kunye nabadlali abanomdla bavuma ukuba kukho inkqubo enye eyadumala i- NES kokubaluleka kokubalulekileyo, impembelelo kunye ne-nostalgia, i- ColecoVision .
Kwiminyaka emibini yeminyaka yokuphila, uClecocoVision waqhekeza ukulindela, iirekhodi zokuthengisa kwaye wayekulo ndlela eya kuba yinkonsole eyimpumelelo kunayo yonke imbali, ukuba kwakungekho ukuwa kwemboni ngowe-1983/84 kunye nomdlalo onobungozi wokuguqula i console ibe khompyutha.
I-Pre-History
Kwezinye iindawo igama le nqaku lingabizwa ngokuba yi- Coleco: iNtlu leyo i-Atari eyakhiwe , njengeCoco idale ishishini lonke ekuqhubeni i- Atari iteknoloji .
Ngowe-1975 i-Atari yasePong yayiyintsikelelo enkulu kwii-arcades kunye neeyunithi zasekhaya ezizimeleyo, ezigqithise kakhulu ukuthengiswa komncintiswano lwabo kuphela, iMagnavox Odyssey . Ngeempumelelo zobusuku bonke be- Pong , zonke iintlobo zeenkampani zazizama ukukhwela kwimidlalo yevidiyo, kubandakanywa neChnecticut Le ather Co mpany (aka Coleco ), owayeseqalile ishishini labo kwizinto zezokhumba waza wanyuka waya kwiiplastiki zokuhamba ezikhungweni zamachibi .
Ngonyaka emva kokukhululwa kukaPong uCleco wangena kumdlalo wevidiyo onobuqhetseba kunye nekhampasi yokuqala yePong , iTelstar . Ukongezelela kokuqukethe i- Pong (ebizwa ngokuthi iTennis apha), i-chip yayitshintshiwe ukuba ifake phakathi kweendlela ezimbini, umdlalo kunye ne- Handball . Ukuba nomdlalo ongaphezu kweyodwa kwenza iTelstar ibe yikhosi yokuqala yokuzinikela.
Nangona u-Atari wayenamalungelo ePong , ngokusemthethweni awakwazi ukulwa neengqungquthela zee-clones ezithengisa iimarike. Kwakukho indawo ebomvu ejikeleze umdlalo njengo-Atari ngokwabo "beboleke" ingqiqo kunye nokuyila kwiTennis yeBili , abathi abanye bathi ingumdlalo wokuqala wevidiyo, kunye nomdlalo we- Magnavox Odyssey weTennis owakhupha unyaka ngaphambi kokuba Pong .
Ekuqaleni, iTelstar yayingumthengisi omkhulu nangaphezulu kweminyaka emibili ezayo, uColleco wakhulula imifanekiso eyahlukeneyo, nganye ibe neenguqu ezininzi zePong kunye nokwanda kwekhwalithi. I-microchip eyenziwa nguTelstar yenziwe yenziwe yiGeneral General. Njengoko i-GE yayingaboswanga isivumelwano esivumelekileyo nayiphi na inkampani efuna ukungena kwi-game game ye-video ingafumana i- Pong clone yayo usebenzisa i-chips ze-GE. Ekugqibeleni, u-Atari wajika waya ku-GE njengokuba isisombululo esincinci kunokuvelisa iipopu ngokwabo. Kungekudala imarike yahlanjululwa ngamakhulu ama- Pong- rip-offs ahlukeneyo, kwaye i-sales yathatha ukungena.
Njengoko abantu baqala ukukhathala ngePong , iAtari yabona amandla ekudaleni inkqubo kunye nemidlalo eyahlukeneyo kwiikripriji eziguquguqukayo, kwaye ngo-1977 bakhululwa i- Atari 2600 (aka Atari VCS ) . I- 2600 ngokukhawuleza yaba yimpumelelo enkulu, ilawula i-market kuze kube ngo-1982 xa uCleco esinqumle ukubuyela emthonjeni we-Atari tech kwiClecoVision .
IQumrhu leConsole - Intliziyo yekhompyutha
Ngowe-1982 iimakethe zasekhaya zazilawulwa yi- Atari 2600 kunye ne -Intellivision kaMatel . Abaninzi bazama ukukhuphisana kodwa bahluleka ... kwaze kwafika uClecoVision .
Ngokwe-80s yekhompyutheni yekhompyutheni yayibulela kakhulu kwi- Commodore 64 , kwaye abathengi babefuna umdlalo ophezulu. I-Coleco inikezelwa ngokuba ngowokuqala ukufaka inkqubo yekhompyutheni kwikhonsoli yemidlalo yekhaya. Nangona oku kwandisa indleko ukuya kuma-50% aphezulu ngaphezu kokhuphiswano, kwavumela iColeco ukuba ihambise kufuphi nekhwalithi ye-arcade.
Nangona iteknoloji ehambileyo yayiyindawo yokuthengisa, kwakungekho ngokwaneleyo ukukhupha abathengi kwi- Atari 2600, ebuswe . Ukongezelela ekudleni umdlalo ochaphazelekayo, ukuba uCoeco uthathe amakhasimende avela kuma- 2600 aya kufuneka kwakhona aphange i-tech ya-Atari.
I-ColecoVision / iNintendo Partnership kunye ne-Atari Clone
Ngama-80s okuqala, uNintendo wayeseqhezuze inzwane kwi-pool yemidlalo ye-video kunye ne- Pong clone yabo, i- Color Color Game System . I-intanethi yeyona nto ibalulekileyo yoshishino lezemidlalo lalivela kwi-arcades kunye neyokuqala eyabethayo, iDonkey Kong . Ngelo xesha kwakukho imfazwe yokubambisana phakathi kwe-Atari kunye ne-Mattel yelungelo lomdlalo wevidiyo kwiDonkey Kong , kodwa uCleco wangena ngesithembiso kunye kunye nesithembiso sokwenza umdlalo uphezulu kumgangatho kunanoma yiphina enye inqubo. UDK waya eKoleco owenza ulonwabo olusondeleyo kwaye walilungisa ngeClecoVision . Ithuba lokudlala i-arcade hit kwi-drive drive yokuqhuba umqhubi we-console kwimpumelelo enkulu.
Enye into eClecoVision ephule iirekhodi zokuthengisa yayiyiModyuli yokuQala yokuQala . Ekubeni i- ColecoVision yakhiwe ngeteknoloji yekhompyutha, njengekhompyutheni inokuguqulwa ngee-hardware add-ons ezandisa ubuchule bayo. I-Module Yokunyuselwa # 1 iqaliswe eceleni kweClecoVision kwaye iqulethe imulator eya kuvumela inkqubo ukuba idlale i- Atari 2600 cartridges. AmaGamers ngoku ayenenkqubo enye ekwazi ukuwela iipolatifti, ukunika uClecoVision ithala leencwadi elikhulu kunazo zonke kunezinye i-console. Oku kwasusa iClecoVision ngaphezu phezulu njengoko ihamba ngokukhawuleza i-Atari kunye ne- Intellivision kwimiba yeenyanga.
U-Atari wazama ukungenelela ngokumangalela uCleco ngokuphula umthetho we-patent 2600 , kodwa ngelo xesha imidlalo yemidlalo yayingumxholo omtsha wokuba kukho imithetho embalwa ekukhuseleni amalungelo omnini. U-Atari uthathe ukubetha ezama ukukhusela i-tech phezu kweeminyaka, kungekhona nje ngama- Pong clones kodwa kunye neenkundla ezivumela imidlalo engagunyazisiweyo ukuba yenziwe nge- 2600 . UCleco wakwazi ukuzityhula ngeenkundla ngokubonisa ukuba beyakhe ummulator wabo kwiindawo ezisecaleni. Njengokuba akukho nxalenye yamalungu ayenaye ayenayo i-Atari, iinkundla azizange zive iphulo-mthetho. Kule Coleco esilawulayo ayizange iqhubeke nokuthengisa kwayo kodwa yenza i-clone e- standout yedwa yama-2600 ebizwa ngokuthi yiColeco Gemini .
I midlalo
I- ColecoVision yayinomdlalo wekhwalithi yekhwalithi kwi-home system, kwaye nangona la ayingekho iipropathi ngqo kwiibhloko ze-arcade zemali-mali, zaye zahlengahlengiswa ukulingana neCococoVision ekwazi ukuhamba phambili kunokuba ngubani na ngaphambili wayekubona kwindlela yekhaya.
Umdlalo weDonkey Kong oza kunye nenkqubo ayikho kuphela iCococoVision eyona nto ifikelele ekubuyiseleni umdlalo we-arcade yangaphambili, kodwa yinguqulo epheleleyo kunazo zonke zeDonkey Kong ekhutshwe yinkqubo yekhaya. Kwanjalo i-Nintendo ingu hlobo ikhutshwe ngokwabo kwiNitendo yoHlelo lweNitendo , kwaye ngoku kutshanje i- Nintendo Wii , ayiqukethe onke amanqanaba e-arcade.
Ngelixa abaninzi banokuthi iingqungquthela zokuqaliswa, ngokukodwa iDonkey Kong , zikhangeleka ngokugqithiseleyo kumgangatho we-arcade, ezininzi zeenkqubo ezilandelelanayo azange zibonise ixesha elininzi okanye ukunakekelwa. Izilumko ezibonakalayo kunye nokudlala umdlalo kwakukho izihloko ezininzi zeCococoVision ezingenakubamba iqela lamanye amazwe, njengeGalaga nePapeye .
I Modyuli Yokwandisa & # 39; s Giveth kwaye isusa
Nangona i Module yoNgezelelo # 1 yayiyinxalenye yento eyenza iClecoVision ixabise , bekuyezinye iimodyuli ekugqibeleni eza kubangela ukuphela kwesimo.
Ukulindela kwakuphezulu kunye nokumenyezelwa kweeModyuli zokuLandisa # 2 kunye no-# 3 , akukho nto leyo eyahlangabezana nokulindeleke kwe-gamer. Isilinganiselo sokwandisa # 2 saphelile sibe ngumlawuli wesigqeba esihamba phambili esiphambili. Nangona ngelo xesha kwakuyinkalo ephakamileyo kakhulu yohlobo lwayo, igcwaliswe nge-gas pedal kunye nomdlalo wepakethe ye- Turbo , kwakungekho umthengisi omkhulu kwaye iindawo ezincinci zeemidlalo ezihambelana nazo ziye zenzelwe yona.
Ukususela ekukhutshweni kweColecoVision , iiplani ziye zaqhubeka zikarhulumente ukuze zenze i-Exalsion Model yazo yesithathu ebizwa ngokuba yi- Super Game Module . I-SGM ihlose ukwandisa imemori kunye negunya leCococoVision , ukuvumela imidlalo ephakamileyo ngakumbi ngemifanekiso engcono, umdlalo wezemidlalo kunye namanqanaba angaphezulu. Esikhundleni seenqweloji, i- SGM yayiza kusebenzisa i-diskette efana ne "Super Game Wafers" egcinayo , izibalo kunye namanqaku aphezulu kwi-tape magnetic. Iimidlalo eziliqela zaphuhliswa kwiModyuli kwaye yachithwa kwi- New York Toy Show ka -1983, efumana imali ephezulu yokudumisa kunye ne-buzz. Wonke umntu wayeqinisekile ukuba iSGM yayiza kuba yi-Coleco eyaqala ukusebenza kunye neRCA kunye ne-console yemidlalo ye-console ye-game Ralph Baer (iMagnavox Odyssey) kwiSibini iModyuli yeMidlalo ephezulu , enye inokudlala imidlalo kunye namafilimu kwi disk efana ne-RAC ye-CEDVideo Players , isandulela kwi-Laserdiscs neeDVD.
NgoJuni, uCleco akazange alindele ukulibala ukukhululwa kweSGM kunye neenyanga ezimbini kamva wanciphisa le projekthi ngokupheleleyo, kwaye esikhundleni sakhe wakhupha iModyuli yoNgezelelweyo eyahlukileyo # 3 , i- Adam Computer .
I-Adam Computer Gamble
Ngelo xesha, i- Commodore 64 yayiyikhompyutheni yasekhaya ekhethiweyo kwaye yaqala ukugawula kwimakethe yomdlalo wevidiyo. UCleco wafumana ingcamango yokuba endaweni yokwenza ikhompyutha edlala imidlalo yevidiyo, kutheni ungaba nekhonsoli yemidlalo ephindwe kabini njengekhompyutha? Ngenxa yoko uAdam wazalwa.
Ukuboleka ezininzi iinxalenye zayo kwi- Super Game Module , u- Adam wayenombhobho yokongeza, i- Digital Data Pack - inkqubo yokugcina idatha yecapesette efana neyasetyenziswa kwi- Commodore 64 , umshicileli obizwa ngokuba yi- SmartWriter Electronic Typewriter , isofthiwe yenkqubo kunye nomdlalo wokupakisha.
Nangona iCleco yayinamalungelo ekhonsole kwiDonkey Kong , iNintendo yayigqiba i-Atari ukuba ivelise kuphela iDK kwimakethe yekhompyutheni, ngoko kunoko, umdlalo owawucwangciselwe ekuqaleni iSGM , iBuck Rodgers: Plant of Zoom , yaba ngu- umdlalo wepakethi.
Nangona iprogram yangaphambili, uAdam wayebethekile izigulane kunye nezixhobo zokungasebenzi. Okubaluleke kakhulu kwezi zinto kwakuquka inani elikhulu leNgcaciso yeData yeDatha yeDiski eya kupheka ngokukhawuleza ekusebenziseni, kunye nokukhupha kwamagnesi okuvela kwikhompyutyhi xa kuqala kuhlonywe ukulimaza / kucima nayiphi na i-cassette yokugcina idatha.
Ubunzima be- Adam obuyitshatileyo kunye nexabiso lentengo ye-$ 750, indleko ephezulu kunokuthenga i- ColecoVision kunye ne- Commodore 64 edibeneyo, isayine iimeko eziza kwenzeka. UCleco walahleka ihembe lakhe kuAdam njengokuba i-Crash ye-Game Market Market Crash ishaya. Nangona uCococo wenza izicwangciso zeModyuli yokuHlaziya yesine, enye eya kuvumela iikripriji ze- Intellivision ukuba idlalwe kwinkqubo, zonke iiprojekthi ezizayo zachithwa ngokukhawuleza.
I-ColecoVision iphela
I- ColecoVision ibanjwe kwiimarike kude kube ngo-1984 xa uCleco ephuma kwi-biz ye-electronic ukugxila ngokubanzi kwimigqa yokudlala njengeCabbage Patch Kids .
Ngonyaka owodwa emva kokuba uCococoVision eshiye emarike, i-Nintendo iqabane layo langaphambili laza lafika eNyakatho Melika kwaye yalawula imboni yemidlalo ye-video kunye neNintendo Entertainment System.
Kungakhathaliseki impumelelo, uCleco efunyenwe kumathoyizi, umthwalo wemali obangelwa ngu-Adam Computer wonakalisa inkampani ngaphandle kokulungiswa. Ukususela ngo-1988 inkampani yaqala ukuthengisa impahla yazo kwaye yavala iingcango zayo ngonyaka.
Nangona inkampani njengoko siyazi ukuba ayikho ikhona, igama loshishino lithengiswa kwaye ngowama-2005 kwakhiwa iCleco entsha, ngokugqithiseleyo kwimidlalo ye-electronic kunye nemidlalo egcinwe ngesandla.
Kwiminyaka emibini emininzi yobomi, i- ColecoVision ithengise iiyunithi ezili-6 zezigidi kwaye yenza uphawu olusisigxina njengomnye wemigangatho esemgangathweni kunye nephambili yemidlalo ye-video yama-80s.
