South Korea Consoles

There's a fully sick Samsung branded Mega Drive I've always kind of wanted

You mean the Super Aladdin Boy? Or was that Samsung?

Anyhow, all Japanese consoles were locally rebranded due to trading rules or ingrained xenophobia or something.

I think OP is talking about original consoles.

>>3893079
Isn't that thing an MSX?

I always read Super A'Can with a Kansai dialect.

>>3893090
Indeed.

Has Korea ever invented anything significant?

>>3893090
How do I find it?

MSX is Japanese

As >>3893065 was saying, all Nintendo consoles up to the Nintendo DS were rebranded by for example Hyundai because Japanese companies weren't allowed to sell their products in Korea. I have no idea why the Hyundai Comboy still says Nintendo though.

Huh. I figured they'd use the Famicom mold.

>>3893042
There was all kinds of shit over a long period of time. Nothing original worth mentioning. Sorta like Taiwan. lel.

I assume you phrase it that way because you think it gives you weeb cred. It does, but not in a good way.

There was a rare South Korean arcade/PC fighting game discovered a couple years back

I know people here tend to hate on HG101, but there's an absolute fuckload of info in this

In Hong Kong, they released both the Famicom and the NES officially. The Hong Kong version of the Famicom was NTSC internally but had an internal PAL-convertor. Way better than the crap involving changing the internals of the console Nintendo and every other console maker did from then up until analog TV-formats were rendered irrelevant.

There was some handheld like the GP32 but those aren't retro even if they're used as emulation machines 99% of the time.

Korea is PC territory and has been since the days of DOS.

>>3894328
They wanted to disguise the Japanese roots so they sold the American localizations.

I dont think they have video games in korea...

kimchi

Nah. Spicy pickled veggies were around long before those gooks. And remember where you are. Weebs love that sweet young jap kimchi and will argue to the ends of the earth that it's the only real kimchi made the way developers original intended.
