Even as a collector, I've never laid my hands on one of these. (lemmy.world)

I used to watch these game console startup compilations https://youtu.be/Wntf-pM5k2E , and the X'Eye and Wondermega felt like fever dreams like lol imagine booting up a game console on Christmas morning and there's a dancing X or W with music that feels exactly like staying up past 6AM. I could not believe those existed.

It's such a crazy throwback. Mine came bundled with Compton's Interactive Encyclopedia and Prize Fighter for Sega CD , I believe. Or maybe I got Prize Fighter separately. Also how I discovered the Spin Doctors song "Little Miss Can't Be Wrong," because it also had a karaoke feature. And, yes, Christmas morning exactly.
