Hello, friends of this wonderful object, I would very much like the
CDI could be reborn in a new version, maybe backward compatible with
the previous console. I live in Monza, close to home that Philips
produced many games cdi. You could do a collection of requests
I could present to management
to encourage the company to produce a new console that can do
competition to the PS3, XBox Nintendo and so on .....
I believe that Philips has all the capabilities to produce such a product.
I'm available if my contribution will bring some hope
more in order to see reborn in a renewed version of the CDI.
I apologize for the translation that is owned by Google.

I understand where your coming from, but the amount of money that sony and microsoft have to chuck around not to mention nintendo, philips would go the way of the sega dreamcast if they ever released a new product, sad but true, just need to look at the economics of the situation

For some reason, I'd like to see a device that could play CD-i titles (including video releases, reference titles and stuff like "Antistatic", not just games), Mega-CD games and 3DO games. As an added bonus, it would also play audio CDs (obviously), VCD discs (only natural) CD-G (ditto) and a couple others. Might make a nice "instant collectable". Though, for some reason, I think it would extra cool if it had lots and lots of inputs and outputs as well.

Then, an update/sequal could add PC-FX and Sega Saturn compatibility. By the time they did the 3rd model, Sony will probably be bankrupt, their assets could be bought by Hasbro and their trademarks and patents made "open source" (see what I did there?) so they could add Playstation compatibility along with something else.

Hey, I can dream, can't I?

yes,u can dream,good luck ,dude

Sony don't just have income from the PS3, and their lawsuits are only against sony entertainment, you gotta factor in they sell tvs, dvd players, blu ray etc etc, Car audio, Computers laptops etc! they are billionaires they could pay out their law suits 3 times over and still be fine

I wasn't referring to any lawsuits. It just seems they've been big for so long they will have to collapse sooner or later. Not in the next 10 years, mind you, but eventually.
