      Nah thats 100% not true. Exclusive titles is why people buy certain consoles. Why would ANYBODY buy a Nintendo today if you could get all the games on Playstation or Xbox? For example PS has the God of War and Gran Turismo series, Xbox has Halo and Nintendo has Mario & Zelda etc.

      Like Deepercutt & Walrusguy for example.
      Some are crazy as hell & make's you wonder what you're doing with your life.
      Like Boogidyboo & Thechairman45 for example.
      But the one's that just repeats the same clip over & over & nothing really much special because Windows Movie Maker.
      Those are the one's that are bad & Created by some 8 year old.

      It was intended as a multimedia device (movies, encyclopedias, karaoke, Flowers of Robert Maplethorpe stuff, etc). Around here they were never sold in toy stores like Nintendo and Sega, only electronic stores, even the 450 console-like model.

    Was the CD-I ever intended to be a video game console? I remember that thing from my driving school were they used a CD-I based software to show videos and animations about traffic rules. Before watching the AVGN episode I’d have never thought that companies actually made games for this piece of hardware.

      BigHailFan it was meant to be a multimedia device for the TV once CD-ROMs became common, like the Apple Pippin and 3DO. Hardware designers though that was going to be the next big thing in the 90s and so a bunch got made and they all failed. These days they all get lumped in as game consoles since the category they occupied went extinct. It's also why the CDi's pack-in controller was an infrared remote instead of, you know, a controller

      ***** If they went through with it, the wording on the contract would have screwed them over anyway. Under their agreement, Sony would develop and retain control over the SNES-CD disc format, effectively ceding a large amount of control over software licensing to Sony. So they secretly met with Philips, Sony's main competitor at the time, to work out a more favorable deal. Sony found out at the 1991 Consumers Electronic Show, with a surprise announcement.

    • @SonofSethoitae
      @SonofSethoitae 9 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      No, the Sony partnership was always for an add-on to the SNES. You can find the concept images online. They jumped ship on Sony to Philips to get a better contract, but eventually cancelled the add-on altogether. However, they were required by contract to allow these games to be made.

      How's that a fail? Nintendo gives zero fucks about Sony. Nintendo is still the best video game company with highest revenue in the world, plus they have a monopoly in the handheld console market. I will never, ever switch from Nintendo to any other game console manufacturer. Nintendo actually tries to be original (every console they have ever released had something original, that was usually copied later by Sega/Microsoft and Sony) and they make games that you actually want to play on a console (unlike FPS' and RPG's, which are horrible on a console because of bad controls.).

    • @sperrin

      +Hollanderizer Not a main rival anymore, I agree. The reason for that is the creation of the Playstation...which is the point. That Nintendo have never recovered from stabbing Sony in the back.
      If Nintendo had not betrayed Sony, the Playstation would never have existed and Nintendo would still be one of the big console producers.
      Hell, the only reason Microsoft got in on the game was because of how well the Playstation was selling. So we may never have seen Microsoft enter the ring.

    • @sperrin
      @sperrin 8 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      +Hollanderizer I don't know of SEGA would have still been around as thier financial troubles started before Sony relased the Playstation. SEGA were already on the way out before Sony got involved. Nintendo saw to the beginning of the end of SEGA.
      Then of course Nintendo backstabbing Sony made sure Sony put Nintendo on the back burner.
      Interesting note, did you know SEGA (when in serious financial trouble) actually went to Microsoft about a possible merger. Microsoft pretty much laughed SEGA away and it was this meeting that got the wheels in motion about Microsoft getting in on the console market to go up against Sony?
      So you can thank SEGA for Microsoft's involvement.

    I'm surprised that AVGN never brought up the fact the Mario and Zelda CD-i games were made popular via TH-cam Poop.

      Wouldn’t it be nice if he mentioned YTP in his multi-part CD-i review?

    Just to throw it out there, the front input is for pointing devices and the rear input is for non pointing devices... Still a pain in the ass but the input isn't broken. The front is made for the remote control only.

    This is one of the best intros. The camera slowly scrolling and showing us a plethora of gaming software. I wouldn't have it any other way.

    I can imagine the controller problem is less of a problem because of the setup he had since 2016.

    The 3-part CDI reviews are serious contenders for the greatest AVGN episodes ever!!

    All 3 of the CD-I episodes are by far my favorite AVGN videos. So funny.
