    The video is mildly entertaining......9 minutes of failed video game systems...What I want to know is, who on LG owned the most of these failed consoles in their lifetime......So watch the video, and let us know how much money you've wasted and what you wasted it on!

    Proud to say I only owned the atari 5200.....

    I figure JMan owned at least three of them....

    Ill be shocked if there is someone who can actually say they blew their wad on 5 or more of them......

    I'll admit, I was insanely close of getting a Gizmondo.

    Wow, I had never even heard of the Gizmondo. Sounds like a crappy version of the PSP, lol.

    I wanted the CDI so badly back in the day cuz of that zelda game but looking at it now its probably a good thing i didn't get it.

    Also, i'd throw the Neo Geo in there as well, not that the system was crap but that each game cost 299 CDN
    Who could afford games with that price!

    The only one I had was the 3DO. For it's time the games were fantastic, especially Road Rash and a few other gems.

    That was great, thanks for posting it. Gizmondo!! ROFL.

    I also only owned the 3do. Road Rash did rock, great game.
    It sat in my closet for years until i finally sold it on ebay last year. Bummer.

    My two favorites...the hand-held that you had to take the battery out to change games, great design. And the one that only had two colors, red and black! Genius!

    Gizmondo was owned by that guy who crashed his Red Ferrari Enzo here in LA....and was then arrested for DUI. He also has a rapsheet in Europe.

    I had all of the Genesis add-on's they featured in the video. My college roommates and I all went in on the 32x and CD add-on's.
