CD-i gave me AIDS

Who was the target audience for this? Did rich ass yuppies need to be aware of AIDS?

>>11844813
It's a multimedia device. You could find it in schools, stores, factories, hospitals and the like. The kind of places where they'd hold on to various types of electronic waste for decades which then only get releases specifically for those places as either hidden away devices attached to a visible screen or perpetual video machines.

>>11844813
Robert Mapplethorpe fans might be curious about the disease which killed him.

I used to kick back and chill with this when I was 5. I still regret giving away my cd-i in the late 90s, they're probably pricey now.

Reminds me of the Act Against Aids splash screen that'd appear when booting up some of the older Puyo Puyo games.

>DON'T TAKE CRACK, SMACKHEAD
Different times, probably made a lot of kids try drugs.

>>11844852
>probably made a lot of kids try drugs
If that analogy holds, does that mean Puyo Puyo turned kids into bugchasers?

>>11844857
No. They just didn't act against AIDS.

Good to learn something from random shitposts I guess?

Bestseller I'm sure.

Best thread currently on /vr/, somehow every post is funny and/or informative

Here's some gameplay. Check out the tubular unskippable intro with that early 90s "woo yeah" beat.

Woah dude. I'm in a time warp.

Maybe schools? Or liberal parents trying to educate their children?

>>11844915
and the protagonist is some guy in revealing spandex, excellent hair, and a gym physique tripping so hard on E that he needs to wear sunglasses in the forest
yeah you know that guy needs to watch out for sugary treats at this stage, should probably get someone to make sure he doesn't drink too much water too.

Thanks to YouTube's song detection copyright thing below the video description, I was able to find the full song, which is stock music.

AIDS education was a big deal in the 90s. We had a school assembly with a group putting on a hilariously inappropriate presentation for a bunch of middle schoolers called The Wizard of AIDS. It was like a Wizard of Oz parody where the Tin Man needed KY Jelly and the Wicked Witch got killed with a giant condom. You can probably imagine how this went over with a bunch of 5th and 6th graders in like 1994. The guy playing the Scarecrow looked like he wanted to kill himself by the end.

>>11847754
Those girls are hot, I wanna party with them.

Everyone has AIDS!
AIDS AIDS AIDS!
AIDS AIDS AIDS AIDS AIDS AIDS!
Everyone has AIDS!

And so this is the end of our story
And everyone is dead from AIDS
It took from me my best friend
My only true pal
My only bright star (he died of AIDS)

Well I'm gonna march on Washington
Lead the fight and charge the brigades
There's a hero inside of all of us
I'll make them see everyone has AIDS

My father (AIDS!)
My sister (AIDS!)
My uncle and my cousin and her best friend (AIDS AIDS AIDS!)
The gays and the straights
And the white and the spades

Everyone has AIDS!
My grandma and my dog 'ol blue (AIDS AIDS AIDS)
The pope has got it and so do you (AIDS AIDS AIDS AIDS AIDS)
C'mon everybody we got quilting to do (AIDS AIDS AIDS AIDS AIDS)
We gotta break down these baricades, everyone has
AIDS! x 20

>>11844808 (OP)
were the questions things like, have you stuck your bare cock into another mans stinky sweaty hairy poopy butthole and the tip of your cock kisses a little turd nugget buried in their butthole, and your dick makes a tiny tear in the guys anus skin, and your jizz and their blood and shit all got mixed together, then another guy comes in the room and takes your dick out of that guys ass and the new guy gets down on his knees and swirls his tongue around your cock with layers of sweaty man ass slime, poop, blood, cum, and swallows all of it before getting up to give you and the other guy big long romantic french kisses with tongues ?

That would be appropriate questioning for gay AIDS man buttsex disease

>>11845778
That "woo yeah" is classic, it was sampled from the legend james brown

>>11844864
Kek

GET HIM OUT OF HERE! HE'S GOT AIDS!

>>11845778
Holy fucking kek, you couldn't make a parody that funny

>>11847823
lmao, why did they do shit like this in the 90s? We had something similar, but it was about "mental retardation" instead. The show featured a retarded puppet that was excluded from doing certain tasks due to being a retard, and the puppet literally explained in plain english to the other puppets that it had mental retardation, so letting it use sharp edged tools and needles would be a bad idea, much to the other puppets surprise. I was in 4th grade when we saw this, and it only served as pure comedy for my friends and i at the time.

>>11848148
Jesus, you must have played that cd constantly.

Who was he? Was he one of the devs for the CDi?

He was a photographer who had an interactive gallery/slideshow type thing for the CD-I. It's one of the most (in)famous piece of CD-I multimedia because AVGN covered it.

>>11847758
What the fuck is he saying?

>>11848629
I remember a video from the 1970s about teaching sex-ed to retarded kids that someone posted on YouTube. Was comedy gold.

>>11844915
Do you get codec calls from Wilfred Brimley?

>>11844813
Depends on if they lived on the west coast or not.

>>11848672
Also, he was mostly famous for his BDSM photos of gay dudes in New York clubs. This part of his legacy somehow gets completely ignored by gamers who only know him from AVGN.

>>11848675
He's describing a new title and saying if you just mash buttons you will suck at the game, but his english isn't great so it comes out as "you will be sucked"

>>11844813
>Did rich ass yuppies need to be aware of AIDS?
I mean, that was the audience that had the most sex.

>>11847823
>Wizard of Oz parody about AIDS
The jokes write themselves, lmao

But those girls have the AIDS!

He also did some icon album covers for Patti Smith, Peter Gabriel, and Television

Propaganda looks so obvious outside of its cultural context.

>>11851674
Sounds reasonable.

For those wishing to emulate AIDS, make sure to set up an NTSC system. On PAL systems (which are legitimately superior to NTSC ones since they actually make use of extra screen resolution) the question screen appears glitched and shows a bit of the answer screen at the bottom which can spoil correct answers.

>>11848148
Anon you need to lay off the gay porn.

>>11848148
the fucked up part is that fags actually do this, and things 100x more heinous

>>11848724
Do you expect everyone to be familiar with a Greenwich queer like him?

>>11844836
>Robert Mapplethorpe died of aids
>had his own game on a console that also had aids awareness game
What is this, I don't even...

>>11852412
this is the kind of shit that lets you know god is real, and he has a sense of humor.

>>11852412
Fun fact: you can experience The Flowers of Robert Mapplethorpe on Sega Saturn. The disc is actually a hybrid CD-i/Photo CD format disc as stated on the cover >>11848672 , so you can play it on any device with Photo CD support. Saturn also had a special disc to run Photo CDs on the console, so you can have the best of both worlds at the same time.

>>11852359
Were pre-lubed condoms not invented yet? What an uncivilized era.

One question in the game mentions condoms made out of sheep intestines. What is that medieval shit?

>>11853119
Sheep skin condoms still exist. They are supposed to enhance sensation but are more likely to tear

>>11844827
>You could find it in schools, stores, factories, hospitals and the like.
No, you couldnt. None owned a fucking CD-i.

>>11853590
That's right. They made medical informational software, Instructional videos, karaoke, edutainment, etc. for the heck of it, just to make this anon very mad decades after the its release.

>>11853636
Extremely based if true.

>>11853646
They were ahead of the curve in shitposting and if their sleep apnea machines are anything to go by they stil got it.

Fuck, now I want to get AIDS.

That actually has a wiki page with some fun tidbits. I'm fucking dying at this newspaper clipping linked from it.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Wizard_of_A.I.D.S.
>The play, which parodies the 1939 film The Wizard of Oz, is an AIDS education piece that follows Dorothy Gale and her friends from the "Land of AIDS" as they battle the "Wicked Witch of Unsafe Sex" and learn how to prevent the spread of HIV.
>Along the way, the Scarecrow learns to use his brain to make good choices to avoid infection, the Tin Man finds it in his heart to feel compassion for people with the disease, and the Cowardly Lion realizes the courage to face his fears about becoming ill.
>The musical plays on the popularity of the film among gay men (see Judy Garland as a gay icon), a group at increased risk of HIV infection.
>During and after the play, cast members distribute HIV-prevention literature and condoms to the audience.

>>11848148
thank god i'm never having sex. shit sounds disgusting. everyone is disgusting.

>>11852541
brb buying a saturn

>>11853717
>land of AIDS
This is where I fucking lose it, the jokes really did write themselves

>>11853717
Is that Dorothy being played by a man?

>>11854749
No, your brain has been scrambled by trannies.

>>11854753
Yeah... I'm pretty sure that's a dude.

>>11854249
Make sure to not make a wrong choice. CD-i has Namco games. Saturn doesn't.

>>11853717
Surely someone taped a full show of this... for educational purposes, right?

>>11856092
This is the most I could find: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sqwkqjH__mE
They play a full scene from the show around 7 minutes in.

>>11856092
>>11856113
Oh, and a second scene about 13:25

>>11856113
>>11856115
Lost media kiddies need to get onto finding it

>>11853717
there's a "League of Gentlemen" bit just like this, I think from the first episode. A theatre troupe called "Legz Akimbo - Put Yourself in a Child". Unfortunately the scene I'm thinking of isn't on youtube

I read that as "CIA" and was like "yeah, they do that."

I never realized Namco released no Saturn games until this post.
