It was the game console the infamous Legend of Zelda: Wand of Gamelon (among other turds) was on.
I had a BLT drive that went AWOL and i had this big paper due for Mr Kawasaki out he might ask me to commit Harry Carey
Oh, is that one of these Japanese management techniques? Sounds really bad... Would it help you if I read you the number on the modem?

My uncle had one, and we had one at school. Honestly it was pretty fun. I remember an astrix&obelix game.. tennis maybe.. and a kid's game where you could color in the characters at the start and it would carry over throughout the game. Was it with a seal? Ah well it's been like 30 years.
Never had one, I'm kind of surprised. My mom got all our games when they were discontinued and discounted. Turbografx instead of NES/SNES. Saturn instead of Playstation. Virtual Boy. Game.Com. I still have them all.
Mah boi! This console is what all true warriors strive for!
A friend of mine seemed to have every game system growing up. He even had a virtual boy. No CDi though, but it was through him I learned there were zelda games for a non Nintendo system. Blew my 90s kid mind. Sometime it still gets me that Sonic games are now playable on 3rd party systems.
Nightmare fuel. I didnt have one but ive played it on emulation. That one dystopian future clicker game is sweet.
I had one but we didn't have any cool stuff for it, it came for free with an encyclopedia so it had a couple discs for it. The trivia game was nice
