Kinda sad, actually. for it's time, this was a pretty neat idea: one machine that did games, music, pictures, and most of what your computer does all in one machine that hooks up to your TV. A pity the combination of the VCD format kinda sucking (seriously, it's got a *lower* resolution then VHS!) and Phillips' inability to get good games pretty much doomed it...
I wonder what would have happed had they waited a few years for the DVD standard to some about...

this console taught us that all toasters toast toast and when theres smoke theres fire and OMFG!! 299 for tat shit i'll cum back when im a little MMMMMM richer!!!
lol cant beleve people paid $299 for that piece of bull crap.
Ok it could had been a decent console if it might have had any decent games.
But from the short commings of its controllers it already proved to be on a dead end.
playstation and nintendo both murderd this one.
Looking at it it couldent even compete with the rest of the consoles from that generation both sega genesis and Neo Geo left this one behind by a far margin sales/games wise.
CD-I? but when you get it...dododododododododo hehhehheh! nice of the princess to invite us for a picnic gay luigi? i hope she made lottsa spaghetti! luigi! look! it's from bowser! deeuh peskey plumerz teh koopalingz an eyeee have takin' over teh mussrwoomz kingdumb. teh prinssez is now permanate guest at one of my kloopa hotels.wegotta save dah princess, and youuuu gotta help us. if you need instructions, on how to get through the hoetell check out the enclosed instruction book!
Yeah the console and its games were pretty much garbage, but in regards the the commercial.... How the hell do so many people not recognized Phil Hartman?!
one thing that i'm glad that Nintendo Power did not cover in a recent special issue of Nintendo Power which covers Mario's legacy is the abysmal piece of shit known as Hotel Mario. it's so bad that it makes Shock Treatment (the supposed sequel/spin-off to Rocky Horror Picture Show) look like a worthy film.
So tragic, one of great commedic legends paid by Philips to endorse thier horse$hit of a console the "CDI". R.I.P. Phil Hartman you've been gone for 10 years now.
570,000 unit, but that thing was available since 1991, 17 years since that console was available and only 570,000 units were sold. I don't believe that is worth $299, it looks like it's worth $10. Atari could sell more than this.
Phil Hartman can sell anything.
