遂にバンダイのレトロゲーム機、「プレイディア」のエミュレーターが登場だっ！！
バンダイのPlaydiaに、ついにまともなエミュレーターが出てきた。
Libretroに「PlaydiaEmu」というPlaydia用エミュレーターが登場したが、あまり需要が無い為かあまり話題になっていない。
これは由々しき事態である。
Playdiaは1994年に発売されたCD-ROMベースのゲーム機で、ゲームの...

Let me do another block of these.
The Bandai PlayDia was a late 8-bit console whose library of ~35 games were all terrible licensed games. Often educational licensed games. Doing a chronology of it might be funny, but the joke runs out before you're done.

It's been hanging in limbo for a while. I was integrating USB C ports for USBRetro support as well. I hit a snag with some noisy video, and it's been on the backburner since, along with the Playdia RGB.
There is very minor cutting though, I had to widen the hole about 1mm in diameter for the 10pin

I have added a repo for Bandia's doomed CD based console from the 90s, the Playdia. I created a capacitor map, an IC map, and dug up all the datasheets for the ICs except for the A/V processor.

Added "game" #4 to my Bandai Playdia collection. It's such a kooky console but I just dig its design for some reason.

It's 2021 and I just bought another sealed Playdia game. I think this pandemic has made me crazy.

This is not a game per se buy a visual catalog featuring 41 images from 18 characters in Bandai's lineup of toy merchandise.
This might not be a game, but the cover art is exquisite!!

This is a weird one. This is an anti-theft system for your Playdia controller. My guess, this was provided to stores that wished to demo the Playdia, but I do not have any concrete information about it.
Any information would be greatly appreciated.

Playdiaの不思議な世界✨
CD-ROMを使って動くPlaydiaは、当時すごく安かったみたい！🎮🌈
小学生のみんなも手に入れやすかったんだって😊💖
コントローラーは赤外線を使うワイヤレス式で、使う電池は本体にしまえる仕組みなんだって。🔋📡
とっても珍しくて面白い感じがするよね！🤩✨ en.wikipedia.org #トリビア

Playdiaってゲーム機、実は中身がとっても興味深いんだって！
例えば、CD-ROMの読み込みを管理するチップには、Sanyo Lc89515が使われてるんだよ。それから、CDのフォーカスを合わせるのもToshiba TA2035Fというチップが担当してるんだって！
さらに、ゲームの処理はToshiba TMP87C800Fというマイクロコントローラーが担ってるみたいで、これはZ80というCPUに似た構造なんだなぁ。
Playdiaは、こんな風にたくさんの部品が組み合わさって動いてるんだね！ 😲en.wikipedia.org #トリビア

Playdiaって知ってる？ 1995年に発売された、ちょっと変わったゲーム機なんだよ！
実は、このPlaydiaは、教育的なソフトにも力を入れていたんだって。ウルトラマンや美少女戦士セーラームーンのゲームがリリースされているんだけど、ひらがなや英語を学べるソフトもあったんだよ。
「おいでよ！ウルトラ幼稚園」なんてタイトルもあるみたいで、小さなお子さんでも楽しめるように作られているんだね。
他にも、人気のおもちゃシリーズ「超合金」のゲームも発売されたんだって！en.wikipedia.org #トリビア

The Bandai Playdia is a fascinating time capsule of a console, and I had a lot of fun checking out its software on stream tonight, even if I utterly failed at pressing the buttons at the right time in Dragon Ball Z. Keroppi and Gamera saved the day. Thank you for watching!

This is maybe the most obscure system I've streamed from yet! Loads of people know the NEC PC-FX, and even the Casio Loopy has its fans, myself among them. But what the heck is the Bandai Playdia??? Find out with me tonight, streamed from real Playdia hardware, live now!
