I was at WAL-MART looking at the JAKKS TV Games,

I noticed the COLECO 2-PLAYER Head to Head were marked down to $4.88

I decided to buy one.  That cheap who wouldn't ?

Well, when it scanned at the register it was $2.50 !!!!!

I went back at picked up 3 more!

I am located in Upstate SC.

So i don't know if this is everywhere?

Is it any good?

The controllers look strange, but the original controllers for the Coleco Vision were even stranger

But for $2.50 hard to pass up, 2-player aspect seems good, any simultaneous, or is it all 1 player at a time.

Good find

This is a very good question for a hardware review forum.  I'll keep this here - for now - but if there isn't a review of this unit soon I'll move it.

I have one of these.

It is on a NES chip. Because you can hear some sound effects of SUPER MARIO BROS.

in the games.

The SPORTS games are horrible!  Except the Boxing ... It is ok,  But difficult !

The other games are OK?  I guess ?

For $2.50  why not pick up one?  You might like it better than i did ?
