Cart picture

In the description of the picture of the cartrige on this page, which is a welcome addition to the article but is quite blurry and maybe should be replaced, the cart is described as "light blue." Is this referring to the casing or the graphic? The casing appears to be yellow or gold, but the graphic has some light blue in it. What is the description referring to, and what, exactly, does the description mean? If it's the casing, why isn't the casing blue? If it's the graphic, does it mean that blue is used in many of color dreams' graphics, and, if so, is that so uncommon? - Jersyko talk 19:21, August 31, 2005 (UTC)

I used to game test for Color Dreams, I got to test baby boomer before it was realeased. I remember the box vaugely, I was 13 at the time. I rember the box was a tad darker.The engineering I remember being odd for the programming. It actually involved a computer hooked up to some sort of circuitry board directly inserted into the NES, then you could actually "Draw" with the controller, pixel by pixel on the television. I also remember the "Hellraiser" game, it had only a intro, but they had figured out how to put actual human voice sound with it. The programmer was brilliant.I overheard the arguements over Hellraiser being a marketable game. I had no idea anyone even cared about Color Dreams still, I had always mentioned kind of for a laugh, that I was a game tester and got paid for it.I am passionate about games still and this brought many happy memories back to me. My mother had worked briefly with them on game development but had a disagreement with them and left (Kid Dracula that was scrapped).

I thought Kid Dracula was a Konami game, just loosely based off the Castlevania series? Is this a different one you are referring to? Drumpler 10:13, 15 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Bunch Games

I redirected Bunch Games to this article until an article can be written about it. Drumpler 10:11, 15 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Kid Dracula was just a working title, my mother intended it to be more of a "Bump and jump" platform RPG of sorts. She had several plans including a giant frog blocking and entry way to a castle.

I'm pretty sure that Bunch Games was Sachen, not Color Dreams.--Dwedit (talk) 18:42, 5 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Merging Wisdom Tree article

I saw that Wisdom Tree has its own article, why not merging it in this one, then redirect ? Sorry I don't know how to do it — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tuxxic (talk • contribs) 11:07, 16 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Wisdom Tree spun off from CD and worked independently since then, while the main firm decided to call it quits with gaming and focused (no pun intended) on surveillance cameras. They do have some notability from what I can tell, apart from being the first and only firm to have officially released an unlicensed game for the American SNES.

Some problems

There aren't enough good sources to back up most of the key details, especially regarding transition from unlicensed NES games to other completely unrelated products. I'm not experienced enough with Wikipedia and learning how to navigate templates is difficult and the visual editor is too buggy for me, so I'll leave it to others. The article makes it seem like Color Dreams just changed its name and switched to new product lines, but this isn't the case. The article doesn't even go into this or bother to explain that its a lot more complicated than that. I Am the Night (talk) 07:10, 26 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah there definitely needs to be some expounding on that part. I did read about Brenda Huff of Wisdom Tree mentioning a bit about Dan Lawton shifting their attention to IP cameras and such, but not much has been said so far. Blake Gripling (talk) 07:44, 4 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
