|VHS tape console released in 1987 by Worlds of Wonder. It relied on a light gun and score counter for all of its 5 games, which could not really be lost. There's an add-on for the multi-[[Arcade LaserDisc emulators|arcade LaserDisc emulator]] [[DAPHNE]] called [https://web.archive.org/web/20150512114240/http://www.singeengine.com/cms/node/6 SINGE], which can possibly be able to emulate the console.] We're in murky waters here, so run this at your own risk.

|Hybrid clone of both the [[SG-1000 emulators|SG-1000]] and [[ColecoVision emulators|ColecoVision]]. Sold by Telegames as the Telegames Personal Arcade, allegedly with permission from Coleco themselves. The console's build quality leaves a lot to be desired, not to mention that games for the aforementioned platforms can be played on most [[ColecoVision emulators]] anyway.

|Sega also had a go with the VHS-Based console market with the Family Driver/Video Driver from 1988 and unlike most of these type of consoles, this did not play Light-gun games but instead played driving games. Only three games were released for the system; it's unknown when Sega discontinued it.

|Released circa 1989 by European company, Funsation (The Exact Origin is Unknown).This Projector based console somehow sold worse and is even rarer then the "Mega Video Game" (A similar console that also flopped). It's unknown how many games were made for it, how many units sold or when it was discontinued.
It was also released in France (and Germany?) by French toy company, Savie as the [https://imgur.com/gallery/ZawKz "Projector Jeu Électronique LCD"]

|A rare Europe-only console, first released in early 1983. Philips designed the Videopac+ to be a backwards-compatible successor to the [[Magnavox Odyssey² emulators|Videopac/Odyssey²]], and was even planning to release an American version called the "Odyssey³", but they reconsidered after a poor showing at that year's CES. Then the 1983 crash happened, and Philips quickly axed the whole thing. Limited support in some Odyssey² emulators.

|A terrifying machine based on HAL from 2001: A Space Odyssey, featuring voice-recognition and AI learning. Its failure led it to being unreleased, and bankrupted RDI. There are currently no known emulators for the Halcyon, as mankind has yet to fully comprehend its awesome power.

|1984 successor to the original Cassette Vision. Much easier to emulate as the hardware is similar to some other obscure systems. There's an emulator for it called [http://takeda-toshiya.my.coocan.jp/ eSCV]. The graphical quality is somewhere between the ColecoVision and NES.

|A hybrid DVD player/game console with enhanced movie-viewing tools, from a bunch of former Atari personnel. Only a few games were made for the system, as the cheaper PS2 slaughtered it. There was a closed-source emulator in production called [http://www.nuon-dome.com/files/Nuance_051.zip Nuance], but its author died and he didn't release the source code himself.
