Is this considered Retro?
What if something is proto-modern?
This thing was going to be some ridiculous multimedia gaming console and tried too much way too soon, without the proper tools and proper developers behind it.
I was almost afraid to post about it because I'm sure some E-Celeb will make a video on it now.
>Korean trash heap console
>Is it retro or proto modern.
It's garbage.
I think that sort of thing flies under the radar and is allowed due to not having anywhere else to post about.
Was this thing ever released? I vaugely recall some DVDs advertising they had interactive games but it was usually just a hidden easter egg in the menu
Wikipedia says gen 6, so I'm guessing no.
But if we are going to talk about failed consoles anyway, HOWABOUT THAT PHANTOM?
What *really* irked me was infinium actually tried to sue someone for "defamation". And then couldn't even pony up the documents the judge wanted and essentially auto-lost. Fucking pieces of shit.

It's American. Samsung was making DVD players.

I've never heard of this before.
Apparently it was majorly hyped in the late 90s as being the next big thing and was called "Project X." There was a time when PS1, Dreamcast, N64 were out/competing that they were worried about "Project X" coming.
It has Tempest 3000, which, I didn't know even existed. Looks fucking good, too.

>Fire Emblem 5000x5000 fag again, in every fucking thread that mentions "retro"
I'm tired of you. Stop posting. Please just go away holy shit.
No one has fucking heard of this thing, it has nothing to do with being a certain age.

This is a good troll identifier.
The person clearly said Nuon was American, but Samsung was the DVD player manufacturer.

>shit all to do with samsung.
Also a few people have been using those 5000x5000 pics. You can too.

what is it with Tempest and ending up with good versions on systems that failed to catch on?

So what if someone does?

it's an unfortunate trend that whenever an e-celeb, especially a prominent one, makes a video highlighting their love for a game, that the game immediately jumps in overall demand, which causes a noticeable price spike. You can literally look up the date that a Game Grumps video for a game came out, look up that date on VG price charts, and see a spike in the value.

E-Celebs are destroying any hope of affordable retro gaming, because they are making "TV shows" for a massive crowd of dumbass, uninformed, low information gamers who go back to buy an old system they played once as a kid or that was part of their "childhood" and then they just shit on it or just have it sit there and it drives up prices both by taking the games and consoles out of circulation, and by creating an artificial demand because someone online with 2 million views talked about it.
>>3285208
It's a known fact E-Celebs browse /vr/. No doubt someone is looking now and sees this and is like
>HMM, I CAN GET 2 MILLION VIEWS OFF OF THIS AND MAKE FUNNY COMMENTS AND VIDEO GAME REFERENCES WITH ANIME SWEAT DROPS IN MY VIDEO

>am i able to read the sticky?
Apparently not.
Personally don't care that it's barely outside the rules. Thing was a turd and not worth talking about anyway.

So your reason for bumping this 12 hours after the last response, was...?

That's not a mainstream e-celeb, and his review is really well done.
>>3286631
To trigger an underage autistic faggot. Mission accomplished.

Nuon is retro. It technically did hit the market at some point.
It died in the cradle since VM labs was trying to sell a standard and hardware manufacturers were just being complete assholes and trying to rip the rights and patents out of the company.
It was practically the 3DO all over again without the reference console to keep manufacturers in line.
