I doubt it would work properly even using a browser 10 years old nowadays brings incorrectly rendered pages or problems with functionality, it would be cool, but i doubt that it would be useful, also take into account that the CD-I browser was not as standards compliant as the pc and mac browsers at the time and even those would have a hard time rendering today websites.

I think it would be pretty cool to see someone using the CD-i browser today, browsing modern websites with it.

Ah, but no game systems had web browsers before CD-i did!

THere were online capabilities (altough not internet, some kind of BBS) for other games before the philips CDI, particulary in japan, those are the real precursors, CD-I took the idea from that.

It wasn't a bad idea and even if it were a good system it wouldn't have done well because people weren't thinking about their appliances in that way yet.

well, we could say now that indirectly, the CD-I made some impact in the market. mayor gaming consoles have internet conection capabilities, can play movies on DVD and can be used as media centers.

Another serious problem that supports your contention was that the idea was certainly ambitious, even ingenious, but the technology of the time was too primitive to allow the idea to be fully realized, which didn't make the product worth the price that it sold for and able to match the hype.
This is in addition to the utter inexperience of Philips in the video game industry, as exemplified by the sub-par games library that would even make E.T. seem deserving of praise.

Maybe, but another reason may be that CD-i offered solutions to problems that didn't exist.
Virtually all CD-i games weren't worth the plastic they were pressed on whereas the 16 and even 8 bit systems of the time had games which were actually fun to play.
MPEG Video CD never offered any significant advantage over VHS in terms of picture or, in the case of VHS Hi-Fi, sound quality. For the money back then, you might have gone with LaserDisc instead.
