Title: cd-i Post by: arcadefever on June 24, 2006, 08:51:29 PM i'm biding on a magnavox cd-i on ebay, the reson is that i LOVE the game
mad dog 8) a western shooting real time movie ... but i notice also that the bid include dragon's lair and space ace :shock: cooooooolllll :roll: nuno, any idea how the games are on that system ? i hope i win it :wink: and if i do, i will post some pics :arrow: Title: cd-i Post by: DarthNuno on June 25, 2006, 08:54:09 AM Mac Dog is an amazing game ! Really good on cdi, and for Dragon's Lair / Space Ace on cdi, you can't go wrong :) The video quality is the best one ( before the DVD release of course).
There is only one bad thing 'bout these cdi releases : there is no sound when you're making a move... so it sometime difficult to know what you are doing, what's wrong, what's good... :? I hope you'll win the games :P If you want to try Dragon's lair or Space Ace, I strongly suggest you to get the 20th anniversary edition on CD-Rom... few bucks on the bay.... very good... not 100% arcade accurate, but you'll able to show and play the games in a really good condition :wink: ...and If you really want it 'Arcade Accurate', I can help you to emulate it with Daphne Emulator... or maybe you can buy a Dragon's Lair cab for your wonderfull game room too :roll: :wink: :wink: :wink: Title: cd-i Post by: arcadefever on June 25, 2006, 08:13:45 PM that cool...
first i will try the game on the cd-i to see how it look.. but i cant wait to play mad dog :D Title: cd-i Post by: SPACE HARRIER on July 09, 2006, 01:01:20 PM Check out this site for more games on your CDI player..

I have about 30 games for it. Be sure to get BRAINDEAD 13 from READYSOFT,plays the same way as Dragon's lair! :D (http://3dotoday.classicgaming.gamespy.com/page%204/b13boxr.jpg) TNT, :wink: Title: cd-i Post by: arcadefever on July 25, 2006, 05:49:38 AM thanks for the info :)
Title: Re: cd-i Post by: Ghost Soldier on April 24, 2008, 05:40:42 PM Old topic revival. New to this board and thought I would bump this. I'm a cd-i collector as well. I remember watching the infomercials late at night and wishing I could afford one. Years later I managed to purchase one with a few games off the bay. 7th Guest was the big reason I purchased a cd-i. I love the game on the pc and it is almost perfect on the cd-i. Just the thrill of watching 7th guest being played on a big screen tv is really nice. I've yet to snag a copy of Mad Dog McCree and Dragons Lair, but I'm on the look out. Other games I recommend are: Voyeur and Burn:Cycle
Title: Re: cd-i Post by: DarthNuno on April 24, 2008, 07:32:50 PM Thanks for the suggestion Ghost Soldier :-*
I didn't have the chance to own a CDi system back in The Days... But I got one few years ago in order to test Dragon's Lair & Space Ace of course :) ...And a I've discovered an interesting game : Kether :-* :arrow: (http://www.obsolete-tears.com/photos/philips-cdi-kether.jpg) It reminds me the game 'Starblade' : you're flying in a pre-calculated path in 3D. ...but Starblade is far better of course ;D Title: Re: cd-i Post by: DarthNuno on April 24, 2008, 07:40:07 PM See this Kether Attract Mode Video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p7-4UdHSOdA), and go to the end of the video for some 'in game' sequences of Kether :)
Title: Re: cd-i Post by: Ghost Soldier on April 24, 2008, 08:18:08 PM Gorgeous looking game. I'll have to put this on my want list. Thanks for the link to the video.
Title: Re: cd-i Post by: superhojon on October 26, 2009, 03:10:25 AM I may not be in the right place, but I was wondering if I could get some help. I have a MacBook Pro OS X version 10.4.11 and I recently purchased a 3DO cd of Dragon's Lair that runs on a Mac. However, when I load he CD it says it can't be played on this computer. I was wondering if there is a tool or an emulator I can download to be able to play this. Any ideas?
Title: Re: cd-i Post by: JG on October 26, 2009, 07:40:50 AM you might want to get the Zelda games as well if you are a nintendo collector.
Title: Re: cd-i Post by: Etienne MacGyver on October 26, 2009, 12:10:38 PM There is an emulator out there... (http://www.cdiemu.org/)
you need the biosfile to run it, but thats foundable on the net too. I've had a CD-i in the past, i can look if i still have my disks, if i found them, they are available since i dont have the cd-i player anymore as far as i remember, i have: Zelda Hotel mario Kether Voyeur 7th guest tetris 4 in a row sargons chess Lemmings and a few i dont recall i will post what i have here if i found them (need to look in old boxes in my attic.....) Title: Re: cd-i Post by: Level42 on October 29, 2009, 08:10:29 PM That system completely sucked to my eyes when it was new, but I may have to give it some more credits now. Indead it was ideal for games like Mad Dog and DL/SA.
I kinda forgot about 7th guest ! My god, that was SO awesome to play (on the PC I had then). The graphics and atmosphere were brilliant. Puzzles not too hard (think that I solved all but one but still completed the game). Loved it then ! I remember some distant family had a cd-i and I saw Mario Hotel and I couldn't help but laugh about it...being used to Atari ST and stuff. The fact that it came from Philips didn't help for me. I hadn't forgotten about the G7000 which was another Philips disaster IMHO in the time of the 2600. The only decent game was Munchkin. By the way Magnavox=Philips. Still might be fun to tinker with one now.If only for Mad Dog I would love it ! :D Title: Re: cd-i Post by: JG on October 30, 2009, 02:05:08 PM OT: Pickaxe pete was a rather nice game for the G7000.
