    The VideoNow actually had Media Wizard software to create your own blank discs. And there was even the VCamNow, a camcorder for kids that could easily connect to the Media Wizard software

    I'm seriously tempted to get one.

    Nice to see someone having something positive to say about this thing. Everybody likes to jump on the bandwagon and say it sucks because it’s not modern, but back in the stuff was hot

  • @TheRealKnightFuryPremiere

    I still enjoy the Videonow.

    I had the original 2003 one! I only had the Hilary duff and SpongeBob disks and it was great for the summer roadtrips my family took that year. Unfortunately, my nanny’s daughter stole it from me and I could never get it back… 😢

    The 5 downvotes are for the kids who had the original and not the color growing up.

    I’m considering getting a new VideoNow color fx or the videoNow Xp soon. It’s fun for nostalgia. I did find a videoNow xp at goodwill unfortunately that one broke down and never started from day 1 and on top of that it had expired Duracell batteries dated from 2010 that leaked. I returned it and am looking for a videoNow that works. Although new technology is much better the videoNow still holds a special place to me

      If you are more concerned with a working system than value try eBay for New Old Stock. There was (the last I checked) lots of unopened FX's mostly in Pink or Blue.

    Hello there, you forgot about the video now XP. You can play games on that device.

    • @16bitvirtual

      By "games" you mean those DVD quiz shows. I didn't mention it since I've never seen one in the wild and from what I understood it sold poorly.

      I had no intention of looking at it, never had one and this is honestly the first time hearing about it. Not much of a surprise seeing how little programing it had.
      If I ever get my hands on one, I might make a video about it.

      I didn't forget, I just never had it. The XP was just a video now color with "games" slapped on it. By the time of the XP I had moved on to the PSP.

    Why is the television playing the video while he is talking

    • @16bitvirtual
      @16bitvirtual  Před 3 lety +1

      The Television is "playing" while I'm taking because it is showing what I am talking about, instead of cutting to the footage I thought it would look cooler if my background props showed what I was talking about. I use this effect in all of my reviews
