The Philips Cd-i was a crappy game system that brought us the Hotel Mario, and Cd-i Zelda games. Also lesser known hits such as Mutant Rampage: Body Slam, and CD-i golf. The games were known to be god-awful, with bizarre levels, bad controls, and weird storyline. However, the music in the game was actually pretty acceptable.

They were principally built as kiosk machines for shop displays etc. They pre-dated the Playstation and were released at the time of the 3DO as well as other failed consoles.

The cutscenes in the Link and Zelda games were drawn by a russian company who had never seen or heard of Nintendo or Dendy (the Russian NES clone). Hotel Mario's cutscenes were done by an amateur American. The cutscenes are enjoyed greatly by Youtube Poopers, an underground organization.

Shortly after being fired by Philips, they were employed to produce a pilot for Krusty the Clown's TV show (See right).

Anything Youtube Poop that has to do with CD-i
