Mattel HyperScan: Marvel Heroes + IWL (Catalog Exploration Part 3/3)
37Time to finish up our look at the most unloved console of all time, the Mattel HyperScan. The HyperScan was a VERY short-lived games console that used a combination of CD-ROMs and scannable RFID cards to deliver a next-gen gaming experience to the poor unfortunate kids who were unlucky enough to get one of these things instead of an Xbox 360 for Christmas in 2006. Are Marvel Heroes and Interstellar Wrestling League any better than the games we've played so far? Let's find out!
