    Believe it or not, I actually have one of these. My dad got it solely for the LaserDisc player.

      AdamKoralik When you do 3rd gen you covering a system called "Action max"? had alot of full motion video games. In fact I think most of them were lol

      Killer Ratchet Honestly, I'm a little worried about that. There's arguably 14 game consoles in that generation. I have three.

    You're getting pretty close to having one video covering each and every major console ever made. That's super impressive.

    @greenneon7314 3 роки тому +2

    I had this back in the day too. If I remember correctly it was about twice the price of the Neo Geo like maybe $1200 plus the costs of expansions. I mostly watched movies but also sometimes Sega CD or Turbo CD games

  • @glittle1751
    @glittle1751 9 років тому

    Thanks for this series, and including this console! It's cool to see all the weird extras you wouldn't normally associate with a generation. Please do the 3rd gen, I'll definitely continue watching!

    @slpmjb0921 9 років тому

    Thank you Adam as always for the highly informative generation recaps. I learn a lot from these, like I actually was unaware of the Pioneer laserdisc player being able to do that much. That pretty much blew my mind. Great content as always man. I'm with the others, I would love to see a third generation recap if you could.

    • @AdamKoralik

    I highly recommend you replace your capacitors
    Even if you think they are good they probably aren't
    Laser active is notorious for pac failure because of cap leakage

  • @00AOD
    @00AOD 9 років тому

    Adam, fantastic ending to a great series. Your fourth generation breakdown was very informative. You asked us about doing a third generation and I think that would be great! The Master System was my first system and would look forward to watching that one! Keep up the great work.

    Thanks Adam, another great series! :) You always give me something interesting and informative to watch while I'm eating or doing homework, so thank you for that. I'd love to see the a series on the third generation, whenever you feel you have the time and resources to make that happen.

  • @Jelster64
    @Jelster64 9 років тому

    Really loved this series. Even when I didn't know about a console's existence, the video of it really, really appealed to me. It's really cool to see that the lesser known consoles also have great stories that should be told.

    • @AdamKoralik

  • @Ronny1031
    @Ronny1031 9 років тому +2

    The LaserActive seems to me like a product to cater to the video/entertainment system-philes of the early 90s and get them playing games. I imagine they were and still are insanely expensive to have and certainly collect for.

    • @yee4618
      @yee4618 3 роки тому

      Depends we’re you live, in the UK you can find the players for a decent price but the game modules... they are another story completely.

  • @hotscorcher9544
    @hotscorcher9544 9 років тому

    We do enjoy those recap videos, Adam! Yeah, a 3rd gen recap would be nice, but take all the time you need! Keep it up.

  • @VyperEye89
    @VyperEye89 9 років тому +1

    I say keep making more of these recap videos. I enjoy them and since you got this far, might as well do generations 1-3.

    @kevinstrade2752 8 років тому

    Yes Adam. As a 43 year old gamer, I've witnessed almost it all. Even then I find your videos informative!!! You are right on as fars as common VG history. Some of the obscure systems I have learned a lot from you. please do all generations, you will find some very interesting history on the early generations, as interesting as the MD/SF fourth generation. Thank you for your videos, I just completed your fourth generation, now onto the fifth!!!!

    @BakiX 9 років тому

    Awesome info Adam, I knew about the system itself and its add-on's but I had no idea that it actually had a library of its OWN games, that's super interesting. Thanks!
    Oh and yes, make more generation recaps, they're my favorite pieces of content on your channel =).
    PS: I would in fact include the Pioneer Laser Active as its own system, Ya did good Koralik! Ya did damn good!

  • @fifebielby4147

    Adam, this series has been so great. I will definitely go back and re-watch it! You know you have to do the third gen next. You just have to. Really appreciate all the work and time and effort you put forth to make these videos, they're absolutely fascinating and the most educational.

      @majorg6065 9 років тому

      AdamKoralik Ha! I believe you gave me 14, I drank one every morning before work for about 3 weeks. I had a slow start the first day I went without one.

    Back in the day it was something amazing to play Mega Drive or PC Engine Cartridges on this thing I guess.

  • @D00MTR33
    @D00MTR33 9 років тому

    Ive been power watching all of your different generation lists and they're really nice, I learned a few new things and was reminded about sone great memories. I've played every gen of games, from a shitty 9 in 1 pong system that had sinlge/double pong and a light gun you usec to shoot squares on your screen to the ps4 now and your videos remind me of things I had and ones that I missed out on. Id love to see you do a 3rd gen list and maybe a 1st and 2nd list combined to cap of the whole gaming history. Thanks again and take care.

    That console is just so freaking massive! You could beat several people to death with this and probably not scuff the paint. Funny enough, my roommate who is a laser disc collector has one of these in his collection.

    AdamKoralik Yes!!!! please do a third generation series! They have been great! I'm also a collector and know a lot of the facts you have presented, but from a UK perspective, not how it was seen from the USA. That makes these videos really, really interesting. Good work chap!

  • @Crlarl
    @Crlarl 9 років тому +2

    Laserdisc was only composite video. However, unlike most composite outputs, it is native composite and not modulated internally. The Laserdisc format was recorded in composite and if players had S-Video or component, it would read the disc then demodulate the video and output in another format.

  • @Kneal2005
    @Kneal2005 9 років тому

    Really love this series and hope it continues into the previous gens. As others have said many times the videos are interesting and infomative and turn what could be a dull subject matter into a great watch. I suppose you could do the main 3rd gen contenders and sum up the stragglers in an intro/follow up vid?

    • @AdamKoralik
      @AdamKoralik  9 років тому

      Kneal2005 I may have no choice. I don't have the VAST majority of third gen hardware.

    Cool review dude I remember my boss/friend getting Jurassic park and his sons saying that he'd left it on pause we all made him forget about it for 48 hours and the laser burnt hole in the disc. He paid £289 to import it. He was not happy. This bring's back great memory's love review you rock dude.

    @techguy348 9 років тому +5

    Laserdiscs are composite only. That is why there is no s-video or RGB. Even the laserdiscs themselves are in the composite video format. Not RGB

      Plenty of LD players can output through S-video, but their usefulness really depends on how good that particular player's comb filter is. It won't change that the LDs were designed for composite, of course, but it'll give the PQ a bit of a boost.
