Ugh.. Take that horrible Zelda game off and burn it for the good of the ACTUAL ZELDA GAMES!!!! On second thought....,.. Take ALL the shit discs off that pile of crap
Imagine how successful this console could have been if they just had called it I-CD. I've heard that it is the way of the apple. "II Ineed Ito Ibuy Ia Inew Itablet I..."
Phillips invents SHIT. Seriously this commercial sucks horribly. The CD-i was nothing more than a horrid pile of shit that tried to fuse interactive ga
es with normal games. In addition to the terrible Zelda and Mario knockoffs, the system's library was subpar and all of its edutainment ga
es were utterly lame garbage. Plus the GOTDAMN thing barely worked and was faulty like everything else they make.
@SuperMrBentley My mom used to work for Venture. Because of a special program, she was allowed to test electronics. On one of those "bring your kid to work days" in 1993 she brought me and my 5 year brother to work. He played a Genesis on display while I played a CD-I. Played Link Faces of Evil and Burn Cycle. Both horrid and really shitty. Six years later when I was in high school, I got a '94 CD training video for Burger King. Stupid ass thing skipped, and glitched halfway.
@billslover90 I grew up on SNES,Genesis and SEGA CD during the 90s. I'm 28 years old. I know a good console when I see one. I still play SEGA Saturn,NES and Dreamcast.
@Tornado1994 these days consoles have proven more technology and experience but have gone too far with the m for mature rating (e.g. no russian mission in mw2)
I like this system. Not a great system, barely a good system, but apart from those "Zelda" trashfests, it has a few nice games, and some beautifully dated "multimedia" programs.
Ultimate my ass! This console is the shittiest console I have ever heard of and it slaughtered The Legend of Zelda, my most favorite game series, but fortunately Nintendo brought back to life with Ocarina of Time years later.
@mdeans79 Wow, fanboy rage at it's most hilariousness XD
Seriously, though, have you ever even PLAYED the zelda cd-i games? Yeah, the animation sucked, but it's not like it's the only bad zelda animation ever (yeah, I'm looking at you, 80s cartoon); heh heh, it's funny how angry you're getting at something positively irrelevant... not that you know any of what those words mean...
CD-I flopped but Philips is King anyway, they own the patent on DVD technology and recieve royalty over every single DVD that gets sold(even blanks)! Funny thing is the CD-i technology was far superior.
NOT A GAME CONSOLE!!! the cdi was lacking with games but it was intended to provide entertainment, learning. not to compete with game consoles. well all the full motion video games look better than the sega cd, but it wasnt a game console
I like how they throw in 3 seconds of gameplay at the end.
Company Executive: We'll wow the kids with shit that has nothing to do with CD-I, hope the parents notice the 3 second clip that looks educational, and count on the kids pestering the parents to buy the system!
Yes men: BRILLIANT! Should we waste time and money pressuring the game designers to remove the compass and other unnecessary shit so the kids enjoy the game?
@erickvso I thought you were stating how Philips forgot about their system's stunning graphics when they got to the Zelda and Mario games thanks to the NOT stunning cutscenes (but stunning background pastel art).
i had a cd-i and it was really good system years before its time. the thing that let down the cd-i was the price tag plus the games was not the best but there are some gems out there if you can get a cd-i mad dog mccree 1 and 2 , 7 th guest and also voyeur was a cool game also .
I remember watching this long infomercial for the CDI that aired around 1am in 1993 (I worked the swing shift back then, so I usually want to bed around 3am).
It was pretty entertaining and I was even tempted to get one, except the price was way too high.
It's funny that back in the 90's nobody cared about the CD-I untill Youtube Poops were invented. Now it seems that the CD-I is popular and a lot of people want one. If you go on e-bay it's really hard to find a CD-I and they are so expencive. I found Hotel Mario on e-bay for $90 and Link Faces of Evil for $75.
Well, it did have the best graphically looking 2D Tetris until Nintendo 64 came out with "The New Tetris". Although there were no sound effects and it doesn't get challenging at all until about level 4 or 5 where I usually just start the game.
Mutatnt Rampage: Bodyslam is an ok fighter if you like games like Double Dragon, Battletoads, Streets of Rage or Final Fight. Of course everybody uses that game engine: old Batman, Spider-Man, Power Rangers, TMNT, Sailor Moon, Dragon Ball etc.
It seemed a little impressive back then. But the games ended up being complete pieces of shit..which cancels out the features it claimed to have over other systems.
LOL. I love how no matter what year it is, we are sold: "Now with PURE DIGITAL SOUND AND PICTURES". THIS was considered STUNNING DIGITAL back then??? OMG! We were such fools in the early 90's. I also love how when you started a CDi it said "Presented in STEREO."
