Woa, Check this Nintendo Console!!!!

[Balbarei]

This console might be a console that never came out, it was made 1977, can be a fake ? but i belive its a real console that never came to the market, because, what happend with the console that Sony/Nintendo, same thing!

Oh, Well here is a picture of it!
the name of it is (Model CTG-BK6)

Actually... It looks like a giant "Game & Watch" game except with Arkanoid.

If you notice on the left hand-side of the box, there are different levels of Arkanoid. I see that this has a dial thing to switch through levels (It seems to show the levels beneath the switch too, labeling them 1-6). I might be wrong, but that's what would make sense to me.

[Balbarei]

yeah me to, but is it a fake?
because someone is selling it on a swedish site!

[Atax]

It's not a fake.

I saw a special on some channel a while ago about the history of video games. I believe this was shown.

[Cerris]

The model is diff. And if you look at nintendo(the word) closely, it looks like it was pasted inthere with paint. The thing is meant to look like the real thing... Thus fooling all who thaought its real!
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHahahahahahahahahahahahah........... .........

Yeaa i think i saw that 2

[Inu_Ranma]

It's a Burowwa, what ever that is. It's not a nintendo, and Nintento's first system was called the Famicon.

[Atax]

Famicom/NES wasn't Nintendo's first, Famicom was released in 1983.

In 1972 Nintendo made the first in in a line of consoles called Color TV.

First came the Color TV Game 6, and played 6 variations of Pong. It's processor was a joint project between Nintendo and Mitsubishi, since Nintendo had no cash to make their own.

The one I posted is the Color TV Game 15, it came out in 1978. It is pretty much the same as the Game 6, but since Nintendo had cash to throw around due to the Game 6, it made a updated version which had 15 variation of pong.

Both versions sold well over a million each, in Japan.

Next came the Color TV Racing 112 in 1978. It was basically like todays steering wheel controllers, and had top-down style racing games.

Last came the Color TV Block Kusu Re in 1978 (pictured in the first post of this thread). It was based on Breakout, and had 6 variations built in.

Exo, so true,
what happend if there was no nintendo/sega ?
sony and microsoft wouldnt existed on the game market today!

True i like sega, but im not a fanboy either, i always wait up to 6months after a console been released to see what games come to that system, i saw PSO to GC so i bought one, but me & my bro got a ps2 for xmas last year, i only buy games that really are worth, same with SC2 now, still dont own, cuz i dont know wich version i want of PS2 or GC,

stop being stupid Fanboy, Xbox sux, PS2 sux, Nintendo sux....

its no the console that sux...

its the variation and the value of the games!

[eXo]

Hmmm thats so true, and im not sure if i speak for everyone but the ps 2 controllers is a little bit better then the xbox,and gamecube but to me the gamecube has the best version because of link other then that they are basicly the same.spawn is fun but he fits into the game about as well as necrid which is kinda sad http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_frown.gif ask around but i recommend the GC version, i own both the ps2 and GC version respectivly http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif

[Inu_Ranma]

I see....


I'm wondering still why it says Burowwa on the box, though. It's just an odd thing to see written on a box and has no alternate in Japanese speech.

(If you're wondering where I'm reading 'Burowwa' from it's the Katakana that's on the box)

Actually Famicon was the japanese equivelnt of Super nintendo, my japanese neighbor had one, even had the gameboy hookup before the one for super nintendo had it and the games looked like the ones for the N64 with the rounded edges. damn them for holding out on us

[DJTigresa]

I own all of the TV Color series. They are hand me downs from my parents who are young enough to be my siblings.

BUROKKU kuzushi.

BUROKKU is obvious. "Block"
The kanji is read as 'kuzu'...
http://linear.mv.com/cgi-bin/j-e/jis/dosearch?sDict=on&H=PS&L=J&T=%1B%24BJx%1B%28B&WC=none

So, something along the lines of 'block collapse'.

*shrug* Rather intuitive name, once you look at it. ^_^;

[person]

dont ask me

[Balbarei]

oh well...

is it fake or not ?

[Xiu_Hazuki]

I can't believe I wouldn't have heard anything about this at all, and even more shocked that EGM didn't cover it in their history issue, or even Nintendo Power. I'll only half believe this... Unless I get an email from Nintendo supporting it. lol, have them forward it to [email protected]. http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/anime1.gif

[starhealer]

I can see where Inu_Ranma got "Burowwa" from, though. That "ku" is a little...odd...looking...

Thanks for the information, though. "Block collapse," huh? Interesting name...

I remember reading about this a couple years ago, though I can't remember the source. Never thought I'd actually see one.

*sigh* Makes me miss my Atari for some reason. Nostalgia sucks sometimes...

[Kadou]

That's pretty wierd. It kind of looks like a crappy radio to me. ^_^;
