Does anyone own a CDi player?
("The" first gaming and entertainment console)
CD-i or Compact Disc Interactive is the name of an interactive multimedia CD player developed and marketed by Royal Philips Electronics N.V. CD-i also refers to the multimedia Compact Disc standard utilized by the CD-i console, also known as Green Book, which was co-developed by Philips and Sony in 1986 (not to be confused with MMCD, the pre-DVD format also co-developed by Philips and Sony). The first Philips CD-i player, released in 1991 and initially priced around USD $700, is capable of playing interactive CD-i discs, Audio CDs, CD+G (CD+Graphics), Karaoke CDs, and Video CDs (VCDs), though the latter requires an optional "Digital Video Card" to provide MPEG-1 decoding.
Operating system: CD-RTOS (based on Microware's OS-9)

CDi had far better games then the first playstation that released years later in 1994.
With the internet package(modem/cdi software/email account) you could connect to the internet and use your CDi player to surf the net and had your own email account.
No online gaming at that time as far as I know of.
I still have a Philips CDi player 450(w/digital videocard) and still have lots of cdi games and video cd's.
There are some CDi emulators for windows, did anyone try this?
