What was the Coleco game? The only Coleco-compatible games I had were the Atari versions of Donkey Kong and Dig-Dug (think the latter was Coleco?).

Simialr to Combat.
Don't remember the title offhand.
Had one of those odd shaped plastic cartridge cases, the lonbg one with the wide base.
Worked, usually, but sometimes it'd cough and teh game would blip.
The sound would cut out and you'd hear "Gribble gribbl;e gribble gribble" come from the speakers.
Pretty cool, actually.
Kinda like playing Mortal Kombat with the Super Nintendo and having Goro fly completely across the screen on the Title screen.
(He was supposed to run up to the Midway logo and knock it off the screen.)
