Philips CD-i is a Fourth generation console that list Philips Electronics, Magnavox, and Sony as the manufactures. the system would only muster 570K units before being discontinued in 1998. you could argue the only other console that was on the market as long as the CDi (7 yrs) would be Sonys PS2(11yrs)

The story behind the CD-i is pretty interesting.  For anyone who doesn't know, Nintendo and Sony used to be pretty close; the sound chip in the SNES was designed by Sony, and there were plans for the two to create a CD add-on for the SNES.  Unfortunately after a falling out over control, Nintendo partnered with Philips and licensed properties like Zelda and Mario for games on the CD-i... HUGE mistake.  As a result, horrible abominations like "Hotel Mario" and the game below were spawned (not made or published by Nintendo, obviously).

Seriously, if anyone here is prone to nightmares after watching scary movies, has health or heart problems, etc, watch this video at your own risk!

Petty time. The Famicom was on the market in Japan from July 15, 1983 before being discontinued in September 25, 2003. That's over 20 years.
