(TCRF) V.Smile Startup In All Regions

[@Sterophonick]

So, recently, this video has had a surge of popularity, and every day I'm getting one or two comments here. Where are y'all coming from?

[@GamergalDS]

Just a buncha guys who own a vsmile and/or clicked on one video with vsmile in the title.

[@MixelsFan2015]

Y'know, there's a separate one for the U.K.

[@brooklynstooksberry7234]

i just turned 19 and am feeling incredibly nostalgic and a lil sad

[@S1LLY_3MB3RLYNN_L0V3R]

I actually had one of those. They're really rare in Puerto Rico. I had a prototype when I was a child in Puerto Rico of a game.

[@Sterophonick]

Woah...

[@peacebwithuuuu]

Boricua gang!! Hahaha I had one of these when I was little, although I live in the us, it was super fun to play on!

[@MarioMiibo]

@@Sterophonick I did. It happen a long time ago since my mom used to work in V TECH studios.

Also V.Pal has an adult male voice.

[@magenta5539]

Huh. I remembered the Italian start up on my V Smile as a kid. Even though I’m born and raised in UK.

[@FrenchFriesrGood]

That's because it was also used in the UK as well as Italy

[@EASBrits]

I had the UK version.

[@electrocat07]

😭 my younger brother had one of these and we used to play it all the time like there was no tomorrow I miss those days

[@Sterophonick]

DAMMIT

[@portal1523]

He putted a not in the description

[@aidan5125]

The first intro had enough cartoon noises to make 12 episodes of Looney tunes. also I would like to point out that this would not compete with the sixth generation of consoles it was released for. It's more comparable to a 4th generation console.

[@Sterophonick]

lmao yeah it's more or less comparable to the Super Nintendo. But it is superior in terms of things like ROM space and CPU speed.

[@BigOlSmellyFlashlight]

surprised nobody commented on the german one contrasting so much

[@FilippolippoChannel]

Every contury: (cute laugh) Germany: HEY!

[@humbloom]

Holy crap, I remember playing this in my sister's room on her Disney Princess TV.

[@TheGamerWithMore]

had one of these when i was younger. from what i remember was, it was very buggy when it came to controller inputs, sometimes the game would hardlock or sometimes it would load random sprites from the cart ROM (yes, these systems used carts). if you were lucky, unused sprites (for some reason on the dora cart had a low battery icon for some reason, even tho this console didn't have any way to check the battery level on the controllers) would be randomly called from the ROM during a crash.

[@MarvelouzTubeStudios]

0:55 HEY

[@LaskyLabs]

I think we got rid of ours which makes me sad. I even had the drawing game with the special drawing controller for it, and the portable one. That drawing game seemed to have a special mode meant just for the portable one where you could play it with the D-Pad on that. For being a very little kids thing, the portable one actually felt really good if I recall right.

[@Slim.shadey300]

Man the nostalgia!!! I had one when I was a kid! Had a bunch of games on this system!!

[@vendalts]

Nostalgia hit harder then my dads belt

[@ToaderTheToad]

I would like to point out that tcrf says that the V-Smile was released on August 4th, and I was born on that date. Funnily enough, I've never heard of this until now, I only had the Leapster L-MAX, Leap Pad, and the MobiGo.

[@Sterophonick]

Perhaps that handheld was the MobiGo?

[@ToaderTheToad]

@@Sterophonick YES! That's it! Thank you!

Yeah, I don't think they did.

[@GabePickles3837]

I had a V.Smile and a V.Smile Pocket as a little kid! They’re both still in my house in a box underneath the TV, but I wonder if they can still work when they are given new batteries. Also, Is there a current working emulator for the V.Smile, as well as ROMs?

[@sgnjamcitydevteam6913]

Also, I'm very sorry that this thing flopped. I mean, it was a baby's first console, what the hell did you expect. What, you wanted to give a 3 year old a console and just go: you figure it out yourself. Oh no, anyone who had parents, they got this. And this thing, was where a console and education got put together.

[@justquite187]

._. Ummm. I’m from the uk and I got the Italian one?????? Also I’m currently on a never ending loop of this intro Halp pls

[@Sterophonick]

If it never ends, then your system is not reading cartridges correctly.

[@jordanmillraney5481]

Yeah. If the startup screen is in a loop, then there’s 2 reasons why that is. 1. The game cartridge you inserted is foreign or dead. 2. You don’t have the cartridge inserted. (I wish there was a message telling the user to insert the cartridge to play but that never happened).

[@jordanmillraney5481]

When it’s in a loop, the vtech startup sound is silent but the V-smile startup sound is the same. This will never end until you power off the console or unplug it (which I would never recommend).

[@jordanmillraney5481]

@brolookatyou I was talking about the vtech V.smile that came out in 2004. Not the V.smile motion.

[@Totaldramaislandgroundedoffici]

You got Germany and france mixed up!
