Title: 999,999,999 in 1 Game console

Something nice from China, a 999,999,999 in 1 console.
If this is real it would be really nice to hack and build it in your arcade.

Not sure if it is real tho :)

We have no idea if this thing is real, but if it is you can probably expect to pick one up from nondescript street markets across China. With a claim to fame of one less than a billion games included, the "999999999 in 1 Super Game" should give the "big three" consoles a run for their money.

It's probably a SNES or Mega Drive clone.

Not that there's anything wrong with that as long as the price is right.

If it's anything like my Chinese "64000 in 1" NES system, then it's 100 unique games repeated about 10,000,000 times each.  :laugh2:

they have to be like ahofle said there is not even that many games out for all consoles, handhelds, pc's, even the want to be's that were knock-off of them added would not even come close to those numbers  :laugh2:

the site name in the picture works and they offer all kinds off different weird console's.

I'd take a "100 in 1" console over a 999,999,999 in 1 console anyday, provided the 100 games were decent, and I didn't have to scroll through enless lists of (terrible english) game lists to find good games.

I have the "Power Player" version (http://www.americasmartshop.com/tvgame.html) and I must say it runs the games very well and the light gun works nicely.  It was worth it for Duck Hunt/Hogan's Alley alone.

Oh come on!

That's half the fun, trying to figure out what game that is in Engrish....

example - "HYPER OLIMPYC"

Any idea what that one is all about? Don't know, but it sure sounds fun!

Oh, and thank god...it also has Mr. Pacman.
