Strange video game hardware thread.

This is the Phillips-Goldstar CD-I 370, a portable CD-I, I find interesting that a system like this can have a portable form factor.

I dunno; seems Sega was very keen to licensing their hardware. I'd imagine it's also due to the fact their first-party stuff was always outsourced manufactured by another company, like Hitachi and Sony.

There were also Samsung-branded Saturns and Mega Drives as well.

My whole SMS set needs work, actually.

My console is the long, red one with a triangle led. TecToy huehue model. All dirty, needs cleaning, but otherwise works perfectly.

My LightPhaser is misaligned. Doesn't fire straight ahead, but instead fires a bit to the right.

The Glasses are cracked in the middle, but I don't think that's a problem. The adaptor is probably fucked up, but when I tried to open it the screws were so rusted that they were scrapping off and I couldn't pull them away, even using a proper tool.

Yeah, I always thought TecToy did Sega a pretty good service. Shame their products never made it this far north. We at least got Majesco, but they dropped the ball. They made a pretty good repro Game Gear that was actually more durable than the original. Only real downside from what I understand was you couldn't use the TV tuner on it. I would personally have used LED's as well for the LCD backlight, but it used the same backlight that eventually burns out and makes battery consumption ungodly.

It would be interesting to see how bad the slowdown would be on some of the faster games. SNES and Genesis both had things that the other couldn't do. for the SNES, this would be throwing sprites around as fast as the Genesis. It certainly wouldn't have any problems with producing the sprites or colors, though.

<As for this, I normally wouldn't consider this strange, except for the fact it's for the Mega Drive....not exactly the kind of console you'd expect to make use of a mouse. Saturn had one too, not sure about the Dreamcast, but I think all of them had Keyboards; I know Saturn and Dreamcast did.

Impossible for them to support Video CD - not enough colours onscreen, among other problems.

The DC could have been a nice set top box, thin client, internet and multimedia machine with all the planned (and some current add ons)
Mouse, keyboard, VGA box, Dreameye, Karaoke unit, the microphone you attached to the controller.
Zip Drive, DVD Player, MP3 VMU.
Broadband adapter.

Saturn backwards compatibility would have been fairly difficult to implement in my opinion. A service where you could download Mega Drive games to the Zip drive and play them on the dreamcast not that much.

The Dreamcast tanked because there was no way SEGA could hold it but it was doing well enough when it was alive. (But not immensely good enough for people to stop thinking about the PS2)

I've personally held that particular LaserActive Genesis controller, and it's fucking banging. Best feeling Dpad on a Genesis controller and they already had great Dpads.

To me, that's the bridging point between the Genesis Dpad and the Saturn Dpad. Great fucking design. It's not as clacky-feeling as the Saturn Dpad, but not as stiff as the Genesis Dpad.

10/10 Dpad, still looking to get one for a good price.

Not sure if this counts but it was an additional cart adapter for the super famicom late in its life span called the Sufami Turbo. I think there were about 12-13 games produced for it mainly anime licenses.

In reality, it was shit with essentially no interactivity.

In theory, you could store a fuckload of data on a VHS tape - even just in the VBI - and read a game off that, using the VHS signal for backgrounds or something (like an even shittier LaserDisc game).

The dull red patches you'll see in the animation were actually flickering bright red, and the dull yellow was flickering bright yellow. The toys would read these patterns and react accordingly. If you pulled the trigger on a red target, you got points. If you didn't point the toy away from the screen shortly after a yellow attack appeared, you'd take a hit. Too many, and your pilot would be forcibly ejected from the craft.

I have two Biodread jets, but alas, neither of them will power on when loaded with batteries. They're held together with ten billion screws, so I haven't yet been able to see if any capacitors or other components fucked off.

I haven't seen any definite prices, someone said they were originally sold to arcades for like $150,000 or something. I know Michael Jackson's went up for sale sometime back, but I can't find what the final bid was. There was another that a collector sold, but still can't find the sale price.

I would guess around $50,000, probably more.
