Coleco --> GBA ports?

Post by noiseredux »

[disclaimer, since this thread is about a Nintendo system AND about another system, I didn't know which forum to put it in... so I put it in "Whatever." Big Whoop. You wanna fight about it?]


Alright so my wife had a Calecovision when she was young and there's two games she always talks about -- Mousetrap and The Smurf's (I think subtitled something about Gargamel's Castle maybe?)

Anyway, I got her a GBA over the summer, so I'm wondering if either of those games have been ported in some way to GB/GBA, maybe on a collection or something? Thanks.

thanks. I figured emulation was an option, although until yr post I had no proof that a GBA Coleco emu existed. So thank you. Though if I could find official ports of those 2 games I'd prefer.

Looks like 2600 and Coleco only for Smurfs.

Though I don't think I've ever read anything good about the game. It might be better to keep looking fondly with those rose colored glasses.

Mouse Trap appeared on Coleco, 2600, and Intellivision.

Videogamecritic.net seems to like all 3 versions, but isn't on any version of Intellivision lives or any other comp that I see.
