The Bandai Playdia -- Bandai's Educational Home Console
90's ANIME FANS, REJOICE!
I'm pretty happy to bring you guys this comprehensive video about the Playdia, because it's just so darn weird. Not to mention it's actually a pretty cool looking system.
(Also, you have no idea how little history/people care about this console. The amount of digging I did for this research borderlines on actual insanity. ...It was not worth it.)
Hope you enjoy! :)

I'm always amazed at how many obscure consoles there are that are new to me

I love your videos so much! Not enough people tap in to the weird/obscure history stuff. I could totally see you doing a video on the Casio Loopy 😄

I've gotten like 4 comments from girls about the Casio Loopy which makes me extremely happy! I've always wanted one so it's definitely on the list of consoles to cover :)

Kelsey Lewin you should do a video on the Segarra Master System Girl from Tectoy. I'm sure you have heard of it.

Kelsey Lewin haha that's awesome. Can't wait!
This is one of my favorite KZread channels. Thanks for all of this info about a system that I didn't know was even a thing. I love to learn about Japanese things so I hope to see more videos like this in the future.
Educational, Home, Console. Three words that should never be combined. Just hearing those out loud i felt a chill through my soul.
Another obscure piece of hardware I haven't seen yet, awesome! The company history on BanDai was also something I've never heard before so this whole video is great. Keep up the awesome work Kelsey, just put out videos more often!

Thanks so much! Was a little worried I overdid it with the Bandai history but I think it sorta leads to the "why" they would even think about jumping into a crowded console market.

Kelsey Lewin I completely agree, it was a very informative setup for the rest of the story. It's always good to have context to go with obscure items rather than just, "Here's this weird thing." I already can't wait for your next video lol.

I quite enjoyed the history side of it, lot of information I didn't know. I kinda hope you do more videos that give more history of companies as well that was very well done!

The Bandai history was my favorite part, maybe the history of these kinds of companies could be a new series.
I will need to get you a spot on the history/documentary channel. Your structure and delivery is second to none!
Make more videos they're so great:)
It's cool they repurposed those for arcade. Nicely done! I love the obscure. My kids would love this system.

Only if they can read, write, and speak Japanese, since all the games are in Japanese. lol! Although if you can find the right MPEG1 container it might be possible to use one as a VCD player.
A new video from you is always a time to rejoice. You've really come a long way in your presentation. Your videos are now up there with the best.
Hey Kelsey! Wow! I've never even HEARD of the Playdia! Cool video!...also how was your E3? I was hoping we'd get Animal Crossing for the Switch but other than that it was great. I saw you at the Nintendo booth, thanks for taking the time to say hi. It was my first time at E3. Really crowded!

Considering a CD-ROM drive for a PC could cost you $200US at the time it was not a bad price all things considering.
great job/vid Kelsey. Never knew Playdia even existed. Now, thanx to you, I know all I ever care to know about it. Amazing you can make something like this interesting.

Kelsey, I just saw this “console” sitting on a collector’s shelf and has never heard of it before. (I have a Wonderswan, but this… I had no clue about.) You presented it well and thank you for saving me the trouble of ordering one just so I could ultimately roast it into oblivion on my channel. It doesn’t need to be a waste of my money and time. Haha.
Can't find this good of content on these systems except from Kelsey! Keep making videos your good at it.
Never heard of the Playdia. Thanks for the video Kelsey. People like you keep the retro gaming alive and I love it!
THAT'S THE CONSOLE! That's the console with the Dragonball Z: Plan to Destroy the Saiyans game on it! I've been wondering what console it was from. I haven't seen anyone talk about the Bandai Playdia until now. They re-released Dragonball Z: Plan to Destroy the Saiyans movie on Dragon Ball Z Raging Blast 2, but it was re-animated and lost all it's 90's anime grit. Thanks for bringing this to my attention Kelsey!
Best video yet, didn't seems as roboticly scripted / she seams more comfortable and it was really entertaining. good job
40k subs with just 7 videos. You're nailing it, great job!
Great video! Very informative, good laughs and overall a very enjoyable history of the console and Bandai to boot. Looking forward to more, as you're only getting better with each you create.
Wow, so cool to see another console I never knew existed. As usual very well made and researched video! Keep up the awesome work.
Just heard about the Playdia. Found your video, watched it and now I'm a Playdia expert! Thank you!
That thing must be obscure and rare, since I've never heard of it until watching this video. Cool vid Kelsey.
Now that's one that I've truly never heard of until now. Very interesting Kelsey. I like your videos and the way you present things in them. Keep up the good work!
yoooo... your videos are good, Kelsey. you talk with so much confidence into the camera and your videos are so full of knowledge.
Short, sweet, and informative. You're a star.
Thank you for this entertaining, thoughtful, and refreshing video. I thoroughly enjoyed it.
You are the real deal....I wish you taught my history of games class! I think when you get older developers and publishers will start reaching out to you for consultation so keep it up!
For all the "obscure system" videos I end up watching on KZread I've never heard of this one. Nice work, always awesome to see a video with you in it :)
I'd never heard of this, thanks for the introduction. Besides this, you've also helped me learn more about Namco, the Mark III, and Pokemon obscurities. I really appreciate the effort and research you put into your work.
amazing thanks i never knew about this gen5 console. your videos are cool and informative the only downside is that they're only few.... really looking forward for more! many thanks that you put time and effort to bring us this cool content!
I love hearing video game history,even if it's about a flop of a console 😄. Great video BTW,you kept it short and sweet. Very informative, without boring us with unimportant facts. Keep up the great work.
I first heard about this thing when I was about 14ish so around 99 or so. It was a mysterious system no one knew anything about, then I forgot all about, and now Kelsey has it explained. Nice, thanks for that bud.
Very interesting. I had never heard of this game console. Great vid Kelsey!
Thanks for this very informative video, Kelsey. I always feel like having watched a documentary at the end of your videos due to the high amount of research that goes into them from your side. That's why it's even interesting to see something about an obscure console from decades ago - you know your stuff. Always worth watching!
awesome Kelsey. Really like how your videos are put together. Also doesn't hurt to have a pretty laddy to look at while I'm nerding out😜

You love this girl who you never met? That's a little creepy.
Most negative reviews of retro consoles: "Should you get it? Well... I can only recommend it if you're a hardcore collector." Kelsey: "This is hot garbage. Avoid." Not beating around the bush AT ALL. Love it!
Awesome video! I had never heard of this console before!
after the new algorithm it appears the standard became 10-ish minute videos, but kelsey just prefers to leave us wanting more :( I did expect to see more game footage and more details on the acessories. Great video nonetheless :)
Thanks for sharing! Love the history
you are definitely improving on the video recording and becoming gold grade . always love ya work
Thanks for teaching me about something I probably didnt need to know, but still had a fun time learning about.
Great video, Kelsey! I almost thought I was watching the Gaming Historian!
I enjoyed the video. It is always nice to learn about obscure consoles. I have been replaying the original .hack// series and I noticed that the characters in the game are eagerly awaiting the release of a new Bandai console called the WonderHawk. It seems they were very optimistic about the WonderSwan's future at that point.
Top notch content right here! What a great video. You're really getting the hang of this. Thanks for the entertainment!
Just want to say, be proud of yourself Kelsey. You've made alot of progress
This was a fascinating and very educational video. Sounds like a cd-based Sega Pico. Thank you for your efforts!
This was really good, had no idea of that console even existing. You seemed to like it.
awesome video as always! had no idea how many weird and obscure consoles existed
First video in months.. But well worth the wait! Great job on the vid!
Great video, Kelsey! It'd be so cool to see you cover the Casio Loopy sometime, too - that console is so cute and has a lot of interesting stuff on it. ^_^

That's definitely a console I plan to cover! Mostly because I've always wanted one :p
Kelsey! I love you! :P Btw, That playdia thing kinda reminds me of the sega CD and its full motion video games.
Awesome video Kelsey! I've never heard of this console before. Thanks for sharing :-)
This was so much better than yours previous videos, I loved it!
Great video Kelsey, I love your video game history type videos :)
Kelsey your vids are awesome. I learn a lot about obscure consoles and gaming related stuff. Your voice is also nice to listen. I'm so glad that I found Metaljesus and saw you in one of his vids. P.s you look cute too 😅
Awesome videos! Keep them coming :)
I wonder, how much Playdia's were sold. I don't wonder, that Kelsey is probably one of only a handful of people outside Japan, who owns one of those super strange machines. That is sooo cool. Another very interesting video !!!
Great surprise, great video as always.
Yay!!! New video!!! :D It is very interesting, I have never heard of this gaming system before!!
This is a beautiful video! I am really glad to have been recommended this. Great channeld
Hiiiiii, I've seen you on a dozen or so metaljeez videos, and I've finally made it over to your channel. I have to say, this was a great video! Keep the content coming! I'd love to learn about your store and business experiences as they relate to the swings of the retro video game market.
Awesome video as always and wow! What an obscure console!
Gaming Historian better watch out. Kelsey coming for their views. Well done!
Informative! Keep up the good work, Kelsey.
I really enjoy your videos. I hope you do more on a regular basis.
Good to see some Sentai stuff tied in. I always see people talk Bandai in Japan and focus on just Sailor Moon, DBZ, and Gundam, but gloss over Toku. (You should talk more toku games, like that SNES Carranger game with the exclusive FX Chip) I feel like I'd want this for the novelty more than genuine function. Good find
Great episode Kelsey! Keep 'em coming!
I have never heard of this console! Thank you for another great video!
Your educational video on Bandai is better than the system itself. 😁
Nice overview on that interesting console and its games. :)
I enjoy these obscure videos. Thx :D
Nice to see a person not praising a console on which they made a video on...
Awesome video, you always seem to pack a lot of information into them :)
Very interesting video! I love all those obscure consoles Japan came out with we never got stateside.
Great video! You're able to get a lot of info and history across in a short time. Although like others I've seen comment "I wish there were more videos" Do you plan on making videos more frequently? You seem to have a pretty large viewer base already and I know you do collabs with Metal Jesus and all, but I honestly enjoy this short history/info videos.
Very comprehensive and informative. Thanks for the vid!
Another console I've never heard of. Thanks for sharing!
We need more Kelsey! Love from London 🇬🇧
I never knew it existed to this video, so props to you for showing me something I've never seen before.
Good to see you back. I missed you.
Interesting! Love the obscure histories. Good case studies if you're a business person. I like the one you did on the console that was repurposed for finance and gambling.
"Do not recommend to anybody" "All of it's games are Full Motion Video" Oh boy. Those two sentences don't compute to me haha. I love shitty FMV games :P ..Buuuuut maybe not of the educational variety. Top notch video kelsey. Loving what you're doing.

It's not so much that they're shitty, it's that they're not games...they're like...quizzes...in Japanese. :p There's a DBZ one that's like a full anime episode though, so that's kinda cool.
This channel is underrated this woman knows her stuff, I thought she was only a guest at metaljesus' channel, new sub from me.
Now you need to do a video on the Pico! I loved mine as a kid, I have great memories of that thing.
Excellent video Kelsey 👍
I love your reviews. Hope you have time to make more content!
Good stuff here Kelsey. I always wondered if people actually collect these "learning" gaming machines. I always see LeapFrog LeapPads at thrift stores and just pass on them.
If you can find WSC original with the remake demos of FF1 and FF2 that would be a video to post. Love the history you do on your channel, cheers and keep it Retro!
Thanks Kelsey. I love your content and hope to see more.
Never heard of this... Now I know why... Thanks Kelsey!
I always look forward to your videos on obscure Japanese products, keep it up!
Love your videos, always interesting. Keep up the great work! :D
really nice and informative video. keep up the great work!
Keep the videos coming! Keep up the good work!
2:40 Every single one except Ie Naki Ko: Suzu no Sentaku which was published by VAP. 4:15 Actually, 9 promotional games and programs (also they are numbered from 02 to 10, one more may exist). 4:45 There was also a nice Ultraman bracelet controller that came with the Ultraman: Hiragana Mission game.
You're great Kelsey! Many thumbs up!
Learned something new today. Nice job on the video. Subbed
I can't tell whether that's a giant TV to the right or if Kelsey is just that small lol Either way it doesn't matter, it's a great video!
