What do you know about the CD-i Games?

[neoak]

Some of you remember that Matsushita (Panasonic) was making 2 Zelda games to their CD-i (Improvement of the SNES). ¿What do you know about them? Please let me know here.

 

[dave_luther]

they were bad.

 

[neoak]

besides that...

 

[blizz]

they were very bad

 

[neoak]

Hey, i mean the story, characters and else. I KNOW THAT THERE ARE VERY BAD!!!

 

[dave_luther]

Ganon was bad!

 

[neoak]

.... ¿So? I like to know if Zelda was violated... (Y/N)

There was 3 games for cd-i (btw - it's a Philips device)
"The Wand of Gamelon"
"Zelda's Adventure"
"The Faces of Evil"
You can find some info about them, say...here:

Also the first working cd-i emulator exists (but it runs only Rise of the Robots for now). Here:

There were platform games where you controlled Zelda instead of Link.

 

[Anton]

Only in "Zelda Adventure", as I know.

 

[Anchel]

?That's funny
In Zelda II: Link's adventure, you can make Link jump.
And in Zelda's adventure it's a platform game

 

[blizz]

yeah Zelda2 is pretty much ignored by the hardcore Zelda fans that's why it returned to it's original format on the SNES

 

[dave_luther]

and man was it sweeet.

 

[Anchel]

And it seems that Nintendo is going to make a Remake of it for GameBoy Advance.

i know those cd-rips are obtainable i think.. nothing special about any of those games on the whole system. from what i've read, almost everyone was horrid

 

[dave_luther]

youd need a cdi to actually play them which is almost impossible to obtain i think or youd have to pay a LOT

 

[Anton]

I think is better to wait until "Cd-ice" will support zelda, and then download iso's somewere. (100 mb each, or more...)
