To be fair, Sonic 3's Tiger LCD game was EXTREMELY successful, and business with other SEGA properties was also booming, Tiger and SEGA probably thought it was the best way to get portable Sonic at that point other than admitting the Game Boy and it's library blew the Game Gear out of the water

I looked up what Delphi was and it's an internet forum that *is still alive!* Wow. To be so unknown to me and yet still active after all these years. The company that hosts it was established back in 1981!
I got one of these for Christmas as a kid. I used to play Resident Evil 2 on it all the time and it actually scared me with the weird sounds and graphics. It wasn't until one of my friends let me play on their Gameboy Advance that I realized I was basically gaming on a calculator lol
This whole segment was worth it just for the slow Duke voice.
I love that whenever the system starts it sounds like it says “gamecom, f*ck you”
For the record, these games are actually running slower compared to what I've seen from other KZreadrs who've covered the Game.Cum. Not that having the games run at full speed would help them be any better, but still you should be informed.

57:45 Tiger & Sega had strong business deals: Tiger did LCD games and R-Zone stuff based on Sega IPs in a license. In return, Sega distributed Tiger LCD games in Japan under the *Game Vision* label. In GCom's case, Sega allowed Tiger to do games while the Game Gear was still a thing in US (it was discontinued outside of US by 1996).
vinny pulling up classicgameroom was like being hit with a jumpscare, but instead of fear its nostalgia...

"Awful Game Com Games" would be the entire game library, to be honest.

So I was the person telling Vinny how to get through doors in Duke Nukem, and for that I just want to say I'm truly sorry for making him play any more of that godawful port.
Audio is slower than it ought to be, but the rest of the system seems to run at the correct speed.
I'm amazed at all the good licenses they were able to get. Specifically Henry.
Christ, Classic Game Room? That sure takes me back, I used to watch that stuff all the time. It and AVGN was like the center spot from where I'd eventually splinter off to find most of the KZread channels that'd eventually bring me here as far as video game content goes.
A handheld console with internet functionality in 1997 should have been the coolest thing ever. But it came from the company best known for cheap LCD knockoffs of better games, so we instantly knew to steer clear.
Ashen, Mark from Classic Game Room, even AVGN have done videos about the gamecom and those videos are all bangers and this one too. The emulator does make the game look playable though, that's inaccurate.
I unfortunately got one of these for Christmas, when I was a kid. I honestly don't know what my parents were thinking? I literally turned it on once and never touched it again 😂
I like how the tagline is "Youre welcome" but with how its bitcrushed it sounds like "Fuck you" as if youre being insulted for being stupid enough to have bought one
Every time I think about the Batman & Robin game, i just lose my mind at how Batman sounds whenever he takes damage.😂 This system SEEMED like a good idea, but it's clear that NintenDO what Tiger couldn't.
The sound was slowed down, but gameplay is actually in accurate speed.
I was not expecting to get hit with nostalgia by a sudden CRGUndertow appearance on a Vinny stream with crusty low quality Dookie Nookie. Certainly was a welcome surprise
What a nice idea from a developer standpoint. Just make your console name sound like a weird shady website URL

For some dumb reason I decided to find out what the character was saying during Henry around 28:08 . It was of course pitched up and it also in reverse. The audio is saying "Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall. Humpty Dumpty had a great fall. All the king's horses and all the king's men Couldn't put Humpty together again."

I do not think the way Vinny set it up does justice to just how difficult it was to see the actual screen. A KZreadr called Ashens did a live recording of playing the physical unit with a professional camera pointing at the screen and two giant studio lights blasting it with more lumens (a measurement of light intensity) then the set of a sit com (The video Vinny showed on screen also demonstrates this effect). He said the screen was easier to see through the camera than it was with his own eyes. The fact Vinny bypassed the horrible screen by pumping the video straight into his capture card means we can witness the poor processing power of the unit.

The KZread captions think every single sound effect for speech is someone saying "foreign". It must be like, the speech to text singularity.
@JacobKinsley
Жыл бұрын
@GoldenSpoon this is what I mean though, you know how certain neural networks will produce one specific output all the time if its not trained with all the fancy mathematical bells and whistles that stop you having a huge spike on the graph as it trains? I'm wondering if "foreign" is the word that the speech to text neural network picks out the most. OK bear with me here, I need to elaborate on this. So, the Adobe enhance video has "foreign" appear EVERYWHERE, I think maybe the voice that that neural network recreates by default, triggers the part of the caption neural network that interprets an unknown word as "foreign". Finally, something interesting I've found is that the 3 models of the jukebox ai will generate their own distinct things when it has no idea what to generate. The 5b lyrics model generates slam poetry read by a young woman, the 5b model generates creepy tonal droning, and 1b lyrics generates Wind in a microphone. Finally, we all know that gpt-3 generates HTML as its default output, regardless of whether it's the code or natural language variant. Which begs the question; are neural networks still biased? Surely if all they're generating is some variant of the word foreign, some robotic sounding woman rambling, loud wind noises or human readable speech patterns around some HTML of the response, if this is what an ai considers the default for everything, then different biases could make entirely new neural networks trained off of the exact same dataset. Or I don't know how neural networks work. That's also a possibility.
