Cartridge-based consoles disappeared after the Nintendo 64. Now, Coleco, the company behind the ColecoVision from 1982, wants to introduce a console that uses cartridges.

The Coleco Chameleon will use cartridges to play classic compilations from the past and new games yet to be released, The Verge reports.

Coleco is teaming up with Retro Video Game Systems to make the console a reality. Retro Video Game Systems tried to create their own system using an Indiegogo campaign, but fell short of their goal. 

Coleco liked Retro Video Game Systems' idea for a console that would use cartridges and decided to team up with the company. Coleco will also use a crowdfunding campaign to get their system on store shelves. Coleco will use Kickstarter instead of Indiegogo for their campaign.

Coleco says the Chameleon will "accurately play compilations of favorite games from the past" and new games based on 8-bit, 16-bit or 32-bit game styles.

"All game cartridges will include high quality, plastic clamshell cases with illustrated instruction manuals and game developer liner notes," Coleco says.

The Chameleon will not require an Internet connection or software updates like most current consoles. The game cartridges would not be capable of updates like Xbox One and PlayStation 4 games are.

The classic game compilations could take some of the most popular CalecoVision games from the 1980s and put them on one cartridge. The new games are yet to be announced.

Another possibility for the Chameleon would be backwards compatibility for CalecoVision games. If CalecoVision owners still happened to have their games laying around in a box somewhere, they might be able to play them again on the Chameleon.

The Caleco Chameleon console will look much more modern than the CalecoVision of the 80s. The first time the Chameleon will be seen by the public will be in February at the New York Toy Fair.
