The Coleco Adam is a home computer and expansion device for the ColecoVision released in 1983 by American toy and video game manufacturer Coleco. It was an attempt to follow on the success of the company's ColecoVisionvideo game console. The Adam was not very successful, partly because of early production problems, and was discontinued in early 1985.Coleco announced the Adam at the Summer Consumer Electronics Show (CES)[2] in June 1983, and executives predicted sales of 500,000 by Christmas 1983. From the time of the computer's introduction to the time of its shipment, the price increased, from US$525 to $725.
The Adam announcement received favorable press coverage.[2] Competitors such as Commodore and Atari almost immediately announced similar computer-printer bundles.[3] The company announced an extensive marketing campaign, with television commercials for "boys age 8 to 16 and their fathers ... the two groups that really fuel computer purchases",
