HOLY freaking crap man!!!
1st that was at least 400 more systems then I had ever heard of.
2nd I never new how many other companies tried their hand at consoles.
3rd Yea, I am glad I was not a gamer 70-early 80's. Well I was not alive till 81 anyway.
4th I did not know sony had tried long ago to make consoles.
5th WOW at how many companies kept making them even though they could not have been making money, or at least much.
6th holy freaking crap!!!!



I am really surprised that a lof of consoles recently were released and I never heard anything about them.

1994 there was a Samsung Saturn and it looked like the Sega Saturn but was released 1 year before ? Does somebody know about the console something ? And the Sony PSX which was released 2004 3 years after the PS2 what was that ? And a Sega Genesis 3 in 2003 (2001/2002 ?)

A lot of things surprised me really there were atleast 2 other Consoles which looked exactly like Sega Saturn.

Then this weird SNES addon Satellite something released after N64 ? And wasnt there a Neo Geo 64 with massive metal Cartridges in the 90s I think I havent seen the console on the Video. Each game costed a few grands I think.

 

Edit: Ok I found on something about the Samsung Saturn but they listet 9 different Saturns like the Sega Saturn Skeleton the Hitachi Hi-Saturn Navi the Sega Derby Saturn and none of them were on the Video. I am surprised that they found Pictures from the 450 Consoles I guess there were more but they couldnt find the Pics.

The Sony PSX was a PS2 with an HD Drive built in 2003/2004 I believe. It was an experiment. Cost something like $800. It was the Sony equivalent of the Virtual Boy and in many respects the original philosophical mistake that has caused the Playstation empire to run into hard times since 2004.

Wow, I had no idea Nintendo was in it soooooo early on. Sega as well. The Zelda tunes brought me back.



I am frightened of how many of thse 70's consoles I've owned.



BAM! There it is!
