my collection
my collection
Decided to dust off my stuff and take a photo. I don't actually 'collect' cd-i stuff, not yet anyway. All in this picture I got back in the day from new. So its a no ebay collection I have no idea if anything is 'rare' or whatever.
yeah it's my DV cart, all £150 of it (I remember convincing my dad that my cd-i was usless without it, so he bought it me )Bas wrote:On the back of the jewelcase you can read it:
The EU titles are "Printed in Germany"
The USA titles are "Printed in USA"
i see you stopped buying titles after 1995! You lost interest in 1996 or anything
cool, i'l check it out tonight.. I take it surf city didnt get a proper euro release then?
Did anything good come out after 95? I recall all the shops stopped selling CD-I at this time, I used to get a letter from philips nearly every week with a list of games on offer at very reduced prices.. i think they were all about £9.99. I cannot remember if I bought any from thease letters though.
I got a PS1 in 98. Then I dont think I got anything else untill I got a DS lite last year.
I'm going to get some more CDI games soon though, I'd like a copy of Mad Dog Mcree with the gun. I never had the gun managed to complete it using the pad though.. Can you recomend anything else i'm missing?
It wasnt massivley populer, i remember being the only kid at school who had one (but thats just what i knew of, maybe sombody at school had one). I knew of 2 other people who had one, my uncle (4 years older than me) and one of his friends. So we used to swap/ trade a few games between the 3 of us.thomas wrote:very nice collection.
i remember when i lived in the UK, i actually seen CDi titles at Virgins. it must have been reasonably successful, as later, i had seen many players and softs at car boot sale, and seond hand shops
You can still get CD-i games in Gamestation shops that have 'retro' sections, infact Wigan gamestation has quite a few, I had most of what they were selling other than a few I didnt like the look of.. They are all priced at £5 and 'Buy one Get one Free' (so £2.50).
Hi All,
It's been over 5 years since I posted here and my CD-i collection has not expanded much since the above photo, which in itself had not expanded since about 1995
I still have everything and plan to have my CD-i set up again once I get my 'man cave' sorted out. I moved house last year and I have a nice sized room just for my games collection (obviously not just my CD-i collection!).
I had come back for a look around here after seeing K1ngarth3r's CD-i collection photos over on Retro Collect, so I have quite a lot of reading to get through now

Bas, I never got back to you on this subject.. Surf City was not an import for me and does say 'Made in Germany' both on the Disc and back cover.Bas wrote:Very nice! I still have mine in boxes somewhere but I should also make some pictures! I see you even got Surf City back in the day, was this an import for you?
