I think the one I had was a Coleco or somebody like that, but I could be wrong.

That would be fantastic! I don't know what they sell for now, but I can't
imagine it would be bank breaking. Thanks!

I know what you mean, but I never had one. I doubt they still make them;
Everyone plays Joe Blow Football '97 on the Super Nintendo nowadays. (My
girlfriend's brother does anyway.) I can't even say I've seen one recently.
The Musee Mechanique at the Cliff House here in San Francisco probably has
one (and other, even older games too!) If you're ever in the City and like
that sort of thing, definitely stop in. They have modern games as well as
old stuff.
