I must have a super duper rare CDI game, cause I cannot seem to find it anywhere. Not on this list, or any other Philips CDI list online. I can't offer the name of the game as it's been so long since I played it. But it was like a cartoon music studio game. Where you can tweak the music video that plays. Like...change it to a country-version, or rocknroll-version etc, and switch out parts of the music video by switching characters you chose. It was....quite strange, but also very entertaining. If anyone know what game I am talking about, please please please get ahold of me. All I can remember is that there was like this evil pizza creature, and a sentient bus character within the music video part.
Hey MissMeliss. Let me know if you discover or figure out the name of the game you are looking for. I'm not for sure off-hand, sry. The only games that comes to mind that sounds similar is for the Sega CD system. There is a few music video games for that system from C&C music factory, Kris Kross, Marky Mark, and maybe one or two others. But realize you're looking for a Philips CD-i game possibly. Take care give a shout anytime. Have fun gaming !!! and let us know if you find your game xD
The CD-i was not a video game console. There were video games for it but it was not a video game console as we think about them today. It was a multimedia device for music, movies, educational/informational software as well as other software. It was more like a computer for your television. Video games were still seen as toys for kids and teens in 1990/1991 and the video game industry was not what it is now. The game library is not great but the system had other intended uses. Compact Discs were just coming to the fore and this system was aimed to take full advantage of the medium.
Missing sooo many! Especially kids games. I was a young child when this system released. It was my 1st!! Crayon Factory, cartoon jukebox, Sandy’s circus, barenstain bears: bear country, Max the magician
CD-i, 3DO and Neo Geo were for rich families only in the early to mid 1990s. These systems cost $500 or more. The general public that wasnt rich could hardly afford to buy 100 dollar nintendos and 200 dollar snes was quite high for most people. i chose to buy sega genesis in 1992 because it was like 50 bucks less than snes. the cd-i has an outstanding variety of software when you do the research. the people behind cd-i put in a great effort at making available a lot of cdi software to people who bought a cdi and theres even all kinds of different cdi hardware. Sega CD was also for rich people only in the early 90s as well. even the saturn when it came out in 1995 was 400 bucks. again, rich only. 300 dollars is about the limit most people will spend on a gaming console. thats a big reason that PS1 and N64 were a good success. not too expensive to begin with.
Oooh I used to play these at my grandpa's house, he has either the Dutch or English versions of Alice in Wonderland (by far my favourite), The Apprentice (pretty cool but the hard for child me, actually they all were), Wacky World of Miniature Golf, Space Ace (although I believe that one was a demo) as well as some others that weren't in the video. I believe one was a flintstones one, might have involved the Jetsons as well. And there was also one where you were a seal that went to the circus, which was like a path choosing game for small children. In a way this was my very first console, had some great memories on this.
We had a few of this games. We liked Dimo's Quest and Asterix and Obelix, Family Games 1 & 2 played it four hours with my dad, mum and older sister.We also had The Crayon Factory wich was more for our age at the time :') There also where games with a biy names Tim and his bear. About him going to a hospital or airport. Wich was more for ages 4 tot 7 or so.. And a few movies. i know we had a lot CD's but this where the games that popped in my head. Loved those days ❤
Awesome list, missing a few games though. I still have my old collection at my moms house and remember Arthur having his own game, a circus coloring book game, and a few others but overall you got most of them. Laser Lords scared me as a kid, and still kind of freaks me out lol.
I could have sworn there was a CD-I game where you are in Ancient China, first person view and if you die you would wind up in one of the levels of Chinese hell and be reincarnated to try and progress again and again- I saw a play through of it on You Tube a few years back but I cant find it now, or remember the name. Anyone have a clue what this game could be? I remember you could reincarnate as a dog and that didn't end well XD
Late reply... I'd say Lords of the Rising Sun? Seen here at 20:46 but that's Ancient Japan. It does have some 1st person views (like when shooting arrows or blocking ninja stars)
My question is were you able to get games that required the digital video cartridge to actually work? I know mutant rampage, dragons lair, mad dog mcree, 7th guest and a handful of others used it... I’ve got Cdi working thru mess but any ones that require that cartridge do not work
It's been years since I've played this system but was also using the mess emulator. I probably came to the same result but did play and test many of the games I could get working. I thought it was a really unique cool system. I remember it from back in the day but didn't play it back then or own one. though emulation has been progressing nicely in recent years.
agreed man... I actually had one for a few years, bought a broken one and fixed it... it lasted another 2 years... then finally died altogether... The DVC games are pretty cool... They have made real strides with the emulation too... you used to only be able to use a mouse, now if you really pay attention to what you are doing on settings, you can use a joystick. I love this system even tho the games are not that good lol
There is a racing game that I played like 30 years ago at Epcot on a game console kiosk and I can't find the game. It was either on the Phillips CDi, 3DO or Pioneer Laseractive I think. It had a behind the car view with a camera set relatively high above the road, kinda like Roadblasters. The track's environment was a volcanic wasteland, and kinda looked like Hell or something. The racing was fast paced, it had a very bad framerate, and a rendering technique I'd never seen before or since. It's not Crash n Burn on 3DO, but it looked vaguely similar to it. Anyone have any recollection of this game?
I remember this game that has similar animation to the cdi Zelda games where this professor guy did some rhyme speech or some shit and you’re locked in this dungeon and some guys there to help you escape, any idea what the game is?
Is there an arcade stick set up or some all in one PC that you can purchase that has all these CD-i games pre-installed? Also with 3DO and Amiga CD32? I just want something I can buy, plug in to a tele and play games
I had a colouring in game on the CDi, you used to colour things in, with colours of your choice and once completed it used to play a short animation with what you'd coloured! Was cool but can't find it anywhere.
oh hey Knewlife !!! nice theme, thx for uploading, just got that one recently. Directing gamer's to the forums if they looking for media, or willing to re-upload on forums if Hyperspinners can't find it. I've been uploading full A to Z wheel video's installed and setup over the years for fun. I'll check out and sub to your channel !!!
How did you get Zenith emulated?! I absolutely love that game. It's one of the only reasons I still keep my system. I managed to get all my other CDi games emulated on MAME / MESS, but Zenith never worked. Please tell us your secrets!
Hey ManWhoRuns. No secrets here :) A couple of the non working games for this system and video, I used or recorded a snap from another source. I have emulated and played most of the games for this system as well but not all of them. I think some are still not working MAME or MESS but its been a few years since I've visited this system. For most of the other systems I recorded, I didn't always fill in the not working games. Give a shout anytime. Have fun gaming !!!
Burn Cycle was cool, as was Laser Lords and a few others. Lords of the rising sun was a fun strategy game. Escape from Cyber City was interesting. Honestly the golf game was the only good game. The others are more linear stories.
I fell asleep at the keyboarding making this video. My bad. Sorry :) Won't happen again. Luckily RUclips has a fast forward and also a next video button ;) Thanks for tuning in
when I had this setup a while back now, i used MESS. current MAME/MESS should work fine or similar if not better; but haven't played/tested or setup this system in a few years. I had bin&cue at the time; & remember trying cue&iso np. RetroArch works to I believe, but I forget which core off-hand. Drop back in if you have any questions Jugga. thx for stopping by.
cool thanks man im new to hyperspin i have everything set up through retroarch except cdi neo geo and mame im still installing those having alot of trouble with mame but installing mess right now so il try
i thought i replied but guess not. but thanks man im going to try it im installing mess now. im new to hyperspin iv got a decent knowledge on emulation with main retro systems but never used mess or mame i have retroarch installed but besides that just stand alone emulators i tried doing mame but having alot of trouble so gave up for now haha
awesome Jugga Have fun !!! drop by anytime if you have any questions. One system at a time; it all falls into place. The more you setup the easier it gets. There's a wealth of information already posted on the forums as well. I do have a small MAME tutorial up on the channel, and MAME install in the Hyperspin + RocketLauncher setup video, I worked in how I setup MAME with HS+RL in that video.
you can't pull down the pieces with Down and you can only spin blocks in one direction, but otherwise it's a good one, the graphics and music make it work
Something tells me the uploader has a soft spot for the last two Zelda games.
and they were horrible.
I loved games like dragon's lair, space ace and brain dead 13!When I was a kid graphics like that was mind blowing!

I had one. It was decades ahead of its time. I also had the 3DO which was another phenomenal console for its time.
Wtf? Are you serious? All these games look like absolute horse shit even by early 90s standards
@@thegekko5262 you are right! ;) THe CDI must have one of the worst game libraries of all time! The games are laughable
@@GenyaArikado - CD-i is definitely a contender for worst gaming system of all time. I hate it so deeply that it fascinates me.

Sandy's Circus was the one with the seal right? I use to play that one and an Arthur game so much as a kid.

MegaRace has choppy FMV track footage, but I can’t recall a volcanic level.
