[net.games] COLECO VS. ATARI 5200

jph (09/13/82)

I have seen the Coleco and I think it's great.  But, has anyone heard about
the Atari system 5200 due out next month?  I was going to buy the
Coleco but have decided to wait because I saw an excellent review of
the new Atari system in a new magazine called "Video Games player" Fall 1982.
I have priced the Coleco for $189.00.  The Atari 5200 is supposed to
go for $210.00.  The Pac-Man is supposed to be very decent (unlike
the one for the Atari 2600).  Has anyone seen it yet?
