I've seen this failure before.  It had capabilities similar to a NeoGeo but was released around the same time as PS1 and Saturn.  Not exactly a recipe for success, eh?

Looks neat... but I bet it didn't get distributed outside Taiwan for a reason.   :-&

Speedy Dragon and whatever that game is with the Son Goku cloud surfer on it looks pretty interesting.

I like the looks of Boom Zoo.  It's obviously a Bomberman ripoff, but it still looks like fun to me.

Agreed. Speedy Dragon also looks like a pretty funny Sonic rip off.

Nice find Keranu.  8) But yeah, to release this system in 1995 was a slightly bad move. BoomZoo looks pretty funny though.

Holy crap, I saw this at the Midwest Gaming Classic.  DHG had it.  I'm going to see if he'll let me record some game footage at the next MGC in MARCH!!!



Looks kinda cool- from what Hunter said its about the same powerwise as a SNES.  If I remember correctly, he had that fighting game too.....

Sorry, I guess "find" was not quite the right word. It was a "find" for me as I've never heard of this console before. I guess I should have said thanks for sharing the info. hehe  :P
