Template:System-Infobox The Philips CD-i is a discontinued video game system, and was the first to be CD-ROM-based. Nintendo originally partnered with Philips Media to develop the SNES CD for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System. However, the project was later aborted. The CD-i was originally released in 1991; it costed $1000 in the United States[1]. After the SNES CD was abandoned, Philips Media released three games for The Legend of Zelda series, one for the Mario series (while another was planned but became cancelled), and a CD-i version of Tetris under contract from Nintendo. The Zelda and Mario games received bad reception; on top of that, the system itself sold poorly.
