I cant call the channel Video Game Esoterica if I don't show some of the weirder harder from the Retro Gaming pantheon of failed consoles now can I? Retrogaming is filled with also rans like the Casio Loopy...the only game console designed specifically for printing stickers! Wait...printing stickers?!

In the 90's Casio got the idea that there was an untapped market in the Japanese gaming space; a console that was orientated towards a female demographic that ALSO printed stickers on photo paper. Well...it really failed hard! And also...I played the Loopy and so damn it...anyone can play with it. Its an obscure and rare piece of video game hardware that has some interesting backstory! It certainly is no PS1 but it actually has some relatively decent hardware in it that is a cut down version of what you'd see on the Sega Saturn.
Basically its Purikura for the home! I mean you can print cats after all!
