I have an internet gem for you today what you are about to watch is a real commercial it is for Apple's only ever gaming console B Pippin at McAfee Demio 10 a job ok divvy up to Mac tangel what was that to say this was a dark time for Apple would be an understatement Apple including this product was not very successful under CEO Michael Spindler but you can't say the Pippin didn't contain innovations that were way ahead of its time the NTSC pal switch on the back eliminated region locking its games could be run in a Mac desktop computer it's included modem allowed browsing in the living room its operating system could be upgraded on-the-fly it could run a standard full-size keyboard natively and it wasn't just about gaming no it was a play to take over the big screen in the living room as a whole and I got one and a game time for a glorious retro tech video I need to go find Linus the light-dark Bass Pro 900 from be quiet features a modular design to support a variety of layouts and configurations check it out at the link below to start the insanity often remember while I say this this was a real policy while marketing the Pippin Apple stated that they were not allowed to use the term computer even though the Pippin was manufactured by Mitsubishi yes that Mitsubishi and licensed to band eyes yes that van died under Apple's Mac clone initiative and yes Mac like computer and being able to call it one might have even helped overcome the astonishing $600 price tag because for the time it was even a pretty bangin one featuring a Motorola PowerPC 603 running at 63 megahertz six megabytes of shared memory 128 kilobytes of envy ram and an expansion Bay to put this price into context of a game console instead of a computer a playstation one launched at 299 dollars the PlayStation 2 launched at again $299 four years later however that to put that price into perspective the Pippin was over 900 us today when adjusted for inflation yo Doug want to check this out yeah this is the at mark a console by Apple a console by Apple yeah a cool huh where did you see Artie I'm gonna hook it up you know here it is brought right don't worry about it jump on three one two three Wow okay we landed in a 93 different scope you didn't expand laughing I don't think you get much from essa no no I got this something something something cd-rom something something 64 for sale use in pan only alright you source this things do the honors okay I'm surprised you have you even had that something no literally never out yeah who keeps such an irregular you'll never been open really yeah it just wasn't going to shrink wrapping 20 year old feels I'm having the ultimate Canadian experience destroying feels ha ha you know what there's some English here not much I'm assuming this is for extended warranty if there's like some forms you can fill it wasn't below vent it cuz like and I fill it there but look at this everything still filled here's the modem glorious where's your social month there's that nice long telephone cord because who would have a phone jack right next to the TV that's the apple the Apple Jack for this controller is ridiculous the irony being that in the 1990s Applejack cereal did exist Charles Applejack cereal is part of this complete breakfast so Apple Jack Bonet oh oh it's got a ball mouth yeah that slaw lens you have left and right click and a Ballmer how are they expecting you to reach these buttons like this middle one it's like exactly out of reach for the bus of my thumb's this is not very ergonomic no it's a very weird controller so this is the six disc kit that comes with it Internet kit at all caps Frankie online and then at mark town in all caps it's a dress on a game I've even been lucky so we have two games to play maybe yes a dope okay okay consulate Jim okay is heavy Oh - how much did we pay for this um give it to me straight I think including the game it was probably about 500 bucks hey man not ever be the most revolutionary anything about inflation it is $900 so I got a pretty good deal with like five four hundred dollars all right okay let's just if you wanted it to be a desk computer that's not a bad feature to have had fund out on the front oh so this is cool so it's actually a toggle switch so you can go VGA ntsc via composite or pal via s-video okay Oh believe this is an expansion fort down here so that when Apple believed in expandability for their devices PCI slot so we'll tag-team this I'll find cable do you plug them in socially all right I can feel the static from this TV just like attacking my head yep oh no just kidding it literally oh yeah okay I tried another life good yes oh yes okay cool Oh scary it's like funny you told me the double-edged sword of buying things that are still sealed yeah oh oh it's delightful go for it man all right at large town uh you disaster nope okay we have to like fully boot the computer every time that we try to change something oh my goodness oh my goodness there we go Oh No what uh-oh it's probably like a social network so Apple again years ahead of the game always on online activation okay yeah done tactics mobility fleet zero zero seven nine there it is I'm pretty excited oh it is in perfect condition this game saw very little you so this is the game also cost almost as much as the console what the total was like five hundred I think the console is like three hundred and this was like two hundred it's okay the game will load in a few minute you know I've explained this to the viewers but maybe it's worth explaining to you expensing purchases is not magic you still have to earn the money all right this little promising okay okay turn oh man look at the graphic okay the audio so good you have to sit through this no okay it's in English Wow laughing I'm elect with the mouth you don't use the controller at all yeah look at that and it makes sense because a lot of these were just ports so start new game yeah oh hey what am i doing interaction I'm going with the world okay so any hopes that I had about the game being in English - no no subtitles either okay I'm going to come up with something for it the universe is in peril and only the Gundam tactics mobility fleet zero zero seven nine can save them it's going to totally wreck that city but those graphics are too difficult to render so wow I don't know what I'm rooting for right now Luke you're up brah okay dude Oh what I think I'm gonna try ms I'm gonna carry the middle one I think you already have all of them you know that's probably confirmed perfect okay let's just move our way over then this one crew crew crap this is probably like a mission explanation ah here's a big rock okay yeah that's exhales it hey big problem so we're being deployed against this ship and those three platform things we'll just go for a solid start Oh timers going up okay wait you click didn't stop yeah if I do anything it stops oh there's more menus you probably like let the game sort of happen and then go in here and like manage your ship great game this is not another kinda game so far okay I'm deploying pilot now different pilot yeah done so now we've deployed three seas hey select them now nope I mean oh the timer stops when the things on screen move maybe try losing them with that just out no just move the screen I'm so bored right now the system cost us $900 you have to enjoy it mmm did he move now yeah no just button this is a really tedious game very let me give new orders to this guy you're actually playing now aren't you yeah the best game it's ever made for the tippet should we move up towards their Gundam one of those buttons will be moved and one of them will be attached we're getting better okay now I'm playing Georgia dang it Garuda hmm all right pretty sure he's better than us no I think any time anything gets close they engaged one oh geez tell my family I never liked them okay so the dudes are starting to die well he's starting to oughta move away I think that's what he said I'm retreating I'm tired no ty go home now I am very sleepy and out of oxygen I must read didn't plug honey okay only one more shot yeah we don't gotta hurry up this is it yeah yeah hello my goodness notice I think we need a bridge crew is what we need that's got to be how you move the big ship I think when we get there it's actually going to go wait what Oh our Gundam is attacking the big ship it put a fair amount of damage I love that the the weight icon is the little apple watch I feel like I've been playing this game for a literary we're probably supposed to intercept and destroy the platforms or some see there's only two ones gone like are we both here Oh leading up on oh oh okay oh whoa whoa accelerate to ramming speed Oh maybe we're going too fast nope we're going to use this one maybe this is like combat sure try it they were different oh oh I have no idea we did it though whoa why did you damage to a completely different bar -
