ColecoVision

Background
Coleco (which is an acronym for Connecticut Leather Company) was a company founded in 1932, owned by the Greenberg family. It started working as a leather supplier for shoemakers and ended up making toys, the Cabbage Patch Kids being its most famous product. Taking on the late-seventies video game fever, they launched the most powerful video game system of the era, the ColecoVision, which eventually outsold the Atari 2600 in 1982-83, only to get involved in the video game crash of 1984. The company filed for bankruptcy and went out of business in 1989.
