 3  8.3 Based on the arcade hit Donkey Kong.
Donkey Kong came bundled with most Colecovision systems, making it the most popular game on the console.  ROM Emulation: DOWNLOAD Prelude's rating:
 
2 7 Based on the arcade hit Zaxxon.
To better appreciate the power of the Colecovision compared to other systems at the time, only this version was able to reproduce the faux 3D look of the original arcade. The Intellivison and Atari 2600 ports switched to head-on scrolling with horrible shading that made it very difficult to spot raised platforms.  ROM Emulation: DOWNLOAD 
2 6 Based on the arcade hit Space Panic.
At a time when horrible ports like Pac-Man for Atari 2600 were being released, this port was hailed to be even better than the original arcade.  ROM Emulation: DOWNLOAD 
3 7 One of just a few original Coleco titles, this was such a hit they even ported it over to the Atari 2600.

1 7 An arcade port of Antarctic Adventure by Konami, the MSX and Colecovision were popular, but the original arcade is hard to find and is considered 'very rare' by KLOV website, as there are no records of an arcade cabinet among their collectors' 20,000+ games.

1 7 Based on arcade hit Tapper.
The original arcade was about Beer tapping, with Budweiser logo prominently advertised in the game. After strong criticism that they were marketing to minors, arcade developer changed the game to 'Root Beer Tapper'. All home ports are based on the Root Beer version.
