Commercials are actuly funny even though the games are terrible, but you have to give the CD-i credit because YouTube poops wouldn't have happend without it.
Good concept (product that plays audio CDs, movies, games and reference-info titles), but the high price and under-powered hardware (plus limited software support) killed it. But it does have the rather fun "Zenith", a game just screaming for a remake on the underrated Nintendo 3DS, so not a complete loss.
i have a CDI and i love it! i still spend hours of gaming on it these days, and i rather have it than my 360. i even like the elecrtic schocks from teh controller!
i am proud to be from eindhoven where philips started!
@Freakshow180 Never owned a CD-i, but I did hear it had a few good titles (Tetris, Burn: Cycle, The 7th Guest). Hell, even the Zelda and Mario games have their defenders, some going as far to state that they're among the most playable games on the system, but have never been given a chance due to the shitty cinematics.
@CR15TH19N What's a Ps3!? You know what? I only know the ShitBox because I use to own one, and it was always on the news for it's lack of qulaity hardware specs, now the games were alright, when I had the chance to play it, but Damn RROD. So shut the Fuck Up with the bias shit.
@thatguyontheright1 im sorry, seriously, i tried out my friend's PS3 and some games and its fucking awesome, im buying one now, i feel fucking terrible and stupid for talking shit about the PS3 ;_;
Dude thats Phil Hartman. (for you kids who dont remember the 90's he was a popular comedian before he died) RIP Phil Hartman. One of the greatest SNL comedians of all time
Awesome 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.
Wow, this version of the CD-I looks almost IDENTICAL to a Turbo Duo! Minus the HuCard port and with some wierd ridges on the top. So not only do they steal and rape Nintendo's beloved franchises but now they're stealing and raping NEC's console design? Lame!
PS: Why does the controller look like a friggin' spoon?
concidering that cd players were a lot back then, then this was a pretty good deal since you can also watch movies, look a photo cds, and play games (no matter how bad they are.
its such a shame that most people think the cdi was a game console, if you look at the list of titles for the cdi it was mostly educational programs as well as movies
if they dident do that Zelda cdi and Mario cdi it would of been a cool console. did you know Nintendo turned down a deal with Sony to make the Nintendo PlayStation? instead they agreed with Phillips to make the cdi.
i got a cd-i about 2 years ago and to be honest they was not a bad console at all.
i played mad dog mcCree 1 and 2 plus i had the gun with it plus i had Voyeur , the one thing that let down the console was the size the console was about the size of a vcr , i had to sell the console in the end i miss that console. =[
"It has the worst controls ever! We're a bunch of idiots who stole Nintendo's games! Oh yes, and we're a bunch of retards! Do not buy this console, it will kill your eyes!!!"
Sorry Phil. You were a wonderful commedian and great actor but's its a tragic shame not only that you've been gone for ten years but that Philips actaully paid you to promote thier poor-excuse of a CD console just cause your name is "Phil" wasting 30 seconds of our life we'll never get back.
