Released by Mattel in 2006, the HyperScan quickly gained a reputation as one of the worst consoles ever made. It was panned by critics and players for its long loading times due to it using CD-ROMs, outdated & unreliable hardware, locking content behind trading cards and the mounting cost of the owning the system (the cards are required for the games to work, and cost {{Inflation|USD|10|2006}} per-pack, each pack had a random selection of cards).
Released by Mattel on {{#formatdate:2006-10-23|mdy}}, the '''HyperScan''' quickly gained a reputation as one of the worst game consoles ever made. It was panned by critics and players for its long loading times (stemming from the choice of CD-ROMs as a storage media), outdated and unreliable hardware, content locked behind trading cards and the resulting neverending cost of operation (the cards, costing {{Inflation|USD|10|2006}} per-pack for a random selection of cards, were required for the games to work).
