Philips released a lot of samplers, showing people what what coming to CD-i and especially to convince the market what it was capable of doing. Recently another demo CD-i disc surfaced thanks to CD-i member Seventy7. It is a copy of the 1995 'Philips Media Retail Sampler '95 - 'experience the power and vision', made to promote CD-i. But with again a promotional CD-i
title, it becomes more than obvious that there was never before a
platform with so many exclusive titles just about the platform itself,
to promote itself! To name a few: Alles over CD-i, CD-i Clickshow, CD-i
Gang 1991, CD-i Product Preview, CD-i World, CD-i I Want One, CD-i titel
Neuheiten 1995, CD-i An established format in the market, Everything
you've always wanted to ask John Hawkins (=president Philips Interactive
Media), ICDIA Awards, General CD-i Presentation 1993/1994, Let the
Games Begin, Power Match, Titles Sampler, CD-i a world of opportunities,
the FunTower disc, the list seems endless!
Jorg Kennis: "Those
demo discs, super meta as they are, are quite interesting to us fans
(and not at all to many other people). They made quite a lot of them. I
sometimes joke that there probably never was a platform with this many
title releases only about itself. The full list of these demo titles in
the museum can be found here: "http://www.icdia.co.uk/archive/democdi.html"
