Hi Adam, the reason Magnavox made one is rather simple: Magnavox is Philips: "In 1974, the Magnavox Company was acquired by Philips, and all Philips consumer electronics in the US under the Norelco name began rebranding them under the Magnavox name; Philips acquired the similar-sounding company Philco in 1981, and Philips was able to freely use the Philips name, alternating with the Magnavox name for some electronics, with the personal care business continuing to use the Norelco name."

ApemanMonkey Philips hoped to have CD-i become the next big format, such as was true with VHS and Compact Disc at the time, so they would license it out to any willing companies at in a similar fashion. There were also some TV's built by RCA I believe, though they might not have made it out to the public, which had built-in CD-i player tech. I remember seeing them while I worked at Philips. I wanted one for myself. :P These were often used as kiosks for various businesses. Also, something else some people don't realize, the CD-i (White Book) format, and even the system were actually finalized in late 1987. That was a big mistake since it would be 3+ years before it hit the market. Way too long for technology to sit around! Had it been developed after the Sega Genesis was released they surely would have added more video RAM.

In case you are still wondering after two years: yes it was. It is called the Philips G7000. I still own one.

15:35 That's actually identical to a Gravis PC controller. For all but the DIN style cable output. Gravis was hired by Philips to make them with the CD-i branding. There was another controller released after this one as well.

+Adam Koralik the Halcyon was the very first disc based console ever made, which was released in 1985. It used to cost around $2500 at the time, and that console was miles ahead of its time.

Knowing that the CD-I was an all in one media platform, it can kinda be seen as a precursor to the 7th and 8th gen consoles.

Adam, I have that same gamepad-style controller for my early 486 PC, but it was cream color with different color buttons and released as the Gravis Gamepad.

My uncle bought one of these for his daughter back in the day. He actually bought it s from a door-to-door salesman. It had all the accessories to do all kinds of things, including this weird controller that kinda looked like an arcade type of gaming pad but with a roller ball for bowling and golfing games.

My brother in law has one. Best memories: Seeing digital photography software for the first time Playing Jeopardy and Trivial Pursuit with the whole family Watching my nephew play Sesame Street games with a giant kid controller Playing 7th Guest, INCA, Lil Devil, World Class Soccer, Dragon's Lair, Escape from Cyber City and more... Worst memory? Renting Wand of Gamelon. Honestly, it was a pretty cool piece of hardware, managed like poop.

Wasn't expecting to hear Robert Mapplethorpe mentioned in a video on a Philips CD-i LOL

Always thought it was part of the 5th Gen, as like most 5th Gen consoles it was able to run the point and click game Myst which was quite impressive for the time. Great video 👍👍

I actually found one complete in box today while searching for stuff in a second hand store during my lunch break. It only cost around 100 euros, so I had to buy it. When I came home later today, I opened it up, and to my surprise, everything was as good as new. It was a CD-i 450 btw.

I live in a town that had a Magnavox store and saw THOUSANDS of these things locally with walls of "games". had all the consoles, addons, controllers, and EVERY disc. sold the entire collection for 300 bucks thinking it wasn't that big of a deal considering I had less in it all due to discounts from having family as a plant manager for Phillips/Magnavox. Have regretted selling it for years.

I have an uncle who had bought it 20+ years ago. In Europe it was never advertised or promoted as a video game console. It was mostly promoted as an "interactive multimedia" TV experience. It wasn't cheap either.

Am I the only person who believes that the Zelda Cdi games don't deserve so much hate? I will admit, the cutscenes were a little goofy, but they were impressive for their time, remember this was 1993-94. Seeing animated cutscenes at that time would be mind blowing. The music was awesome and upbeat, and the graphics are full of color.

Yet another example of a game console being usd for dentistry.

Adam looking mad good in this on

I have the model 350 portable CD-i with the digital video dock . Its a beast and makes the sega nomad look like a game boy micro. Its pretty bad ass. It has a ntsc/pal switch, composite vidoe in/out and rgb out port. There were 4 different cdi portables. the 330(no screen and a 3.5 inch floppy). the 350(with a flip up 5.5 inch screen) the 360( same as 350 with a higher quality screen) and the 370 with a rechargeable battery and built in digital video cartridge. The previous models required a digital video dock to play the games that required it.

I remember playing CD-i at Service Merchandise. I think all Service Merchandise stores had CD-i kiosks when I was little. Still have yet to play Neo Geo, Jaguar, or 3D0 but I played CD-i a bunch when I was little.

I bought the CD-I back in late 1990. As long as you weren't expecting a video game console (Philips never originally marketed it as such) then you were probably happy with it. It's basically what you would buy if you wanted a PC CD-Rom and content on your living room TV. I paid over $800 for it and got my money's worth out of it, as well as a job with PIMA (Philips Media). ;) I had all of our photos developed on Kodak Photo-CD and it was great to see them displayed on a TV screen. The 910 is my favorite model and its built like a tank. Escape from Cyber-City is based on a Laser Disc game called Freedom Fighers, which in turn is based on Galaxy 999 anime. Some of the better games would be The Apprentice (this game actually looks and sounds better than most SNES games). Burn Cycle, The 7th Guest, Dragon's Lair 1 & 2 (best ports until the DVD-Video releases by Digital Leisure. There are many more, but I'm betting most people couldn't care less. :P

Great video Adam! The history behind the CD-i is really interesting. Honestly, I think the worst thing about it is the size, and how much they cost on Ebay (which is pretty much the only place where I can find one). Apparently they're easier to find and cheaper in Europe, because Philips is a Dutch company. There were even models made for presentations, and one has zip disk drive!

The digital Video Cartridge didn't come out until a couple of years after the launch of the CD-i. I used to review and beta test new hardware and CD-i titles for PIMA and have 2 beta units as well as a few final DVCs. Video CD was a neat format, but the 74 minute video limit hurt it, as well as the MPEG-1 codec, which yielded video quality which at it's best was close to LaserDisc, and at it's worst was below VHS, with it's blocky video, usually during fast action scene which requires higher bit rates. Had they been able to get the video length up to 100 minutes, to fit most movies or the time, it may have been a huge success. People didn't like the idea of changing discs mid movie. It was the same with LD. SVCD actually looked incredible for the time. It had double the resolution, but at half the play time (35 minutes). It looked like DVD quality (480p). I ended up buying a Pioneer Elite 5 disc carousel so I could load 3 disc SVCD movies. LOTR took 5.

I actually got mine in 1990. :) I bought the store kiosk from a local Lechmere store in December 1990. The person ringing it up thought it was just a CD player and sold it as "used stereo equipment". I ended up buying a $799.99 CD-i 910 machine for $399.

you should to a teardown of the big cd-i. i've always wondered what takes up all the space inside it.

I remember seeing the CDi ads on TV when I was younger. Also, Magnavox is part of Philips.

Funny that gamepad is rare since it's just a Gravis gamepad which themselves are common as dirt, must be a way to change the plugs around and just paint them dark grey so all CD-i owners could have one. Tough system to love, I'm thinking about collecting the software first and then getting a machine after. Bit like Wii game collecting in that I don't even want the shovelware cluttering my shelves no matter how cheap they are since I'm not going to play them.

The video shows that it can be repaired, but it's a super pain in the butt. kzread.info/dash/bejne/lYKr1qqKaZi2n6g.html It is going to suck when most of the CD-i systems become unplayable over the next few years because it is a really cool piece of history.

You can add a digital video cartridge on the Cd-i 410 model (on the left side) but it's a different cartridge which is harder to find loose. There are more platformers too: The Apprentice, Lucky Luke, Christmas Crisis and Christmas Country. I don't know if all of these games were released in Europe though.

Remember playing with one in a high end electronic store in 92'. Compared to the Megadrive I had at home the CD-i was painful to use.

i actually used the 220 type model as a cd player on my hifi separates, back in 88 i bought a first gen ferguson cd player, it was very expensive did nothing but play cd's but sounded fantastic(never found another that sounded as good), anyway in 2001 i had been ill and was broke and of course the cd player died, so i dusted off the cdi out of the loft and set it up, i used that as a cd until two years ago when i bought a new old stock denon cd player, the local game shop swapped the cdi and its stuff for an xbox one controller.

Thanks Ronald

Also, the CDi does have a platformer, and actually a very good one at that, i have it. It's called The Apprentice, and it's an exclusive. I'd say in fact that it's probably the best game on the console.

Hi Adam, I bought a cdi and some games but when I received the console it would not work, it did not load the discs, though you could hear it spinning, so I sent it back to the seller for a refund, but still have the games so I must get a unit that works. Maybe I should have tried to fix it.

In some SE Asian regions VCDs took off because the climate was too humid for tape to be a viable medium to keep around. Hence the VCD was a massive benefit to Asian markets and so it's doubly bizarre why the CDi wasn't sold there.

Philips is Dutch and I remember well the CD-i was heavily promoted here. As a kid I had my serious doubts as you couldn't do much with it as it didn't have storage so everything you make with it is lost once you turn it off. If they would have added a floppy drive in it as standard, the formula might have worked. Even moreso, if they had expension options for gaming, it really might have been something. We could have had so much nice things, pity there are only people at the top who don't want nice things.
