    Yeah, there's very few game systems I'm just not interested in collecting and this is one of them, also RCA studio II, Action Max, Socrates, and Arcadia 2001 are others. Almost all systems have at least one title that makes the purchase worth it, these sorry backwards children have none.

    Well, you have to remember that this thing came out in the mid-1990's when those multimedia devices were flooding the market (ie: CDTV, CD-i, LaserActive) and multimedia PC's were still out of the reach of most consumers. Games like Myst and 7th Guest were about as "multimedia" as most computer games got during that era, definitely not worth spending upwards of $2k for most people.

    I'm guessing that this was positioned as some sort of low-cost entry level for just that segment of the market. In retrospect, $600 did seem a little easier to swallow than what comparable devices sold for around that time.

    I have a VIS, with all or close to all of the titles released for it. I also have the controller, the memory card, and the in-store Demo CD as well. If anyone has a question on it, let me know.

    To the person that suggested I use Google.

    I did.

    You know how many of these things were made in the mid 90's? Sony, Phillips and Magnavox all made them and the Magnavox is the rarest of the 3 in terms of acctual information

    Wouldn't mind seeing some screens if possible, any action orientated games at all?

    Hows the video quality?

    Cheers
