The "999,999,999 in 1 Super Game" system

We have no idea if this thing is real, but if it is you can probably expect to pick one up from nondescript street markets across China. With a claim to fame of one less than a billion games included, the "999999999 in 1 Super Game" should give the "big three" consoles a run for their money.

The best part about these multigame things is the fake game names. "Maperboy" and "Flaperboy" are funny enough, but when Mappy Land is called Iron Conquest Eagle Deluxe, you will laugh for days.

Assuming it takes 0.3 seconds to scroll down each of the games in its menu

999,999,999 games x 0.3 = 299999999.7 seconds
299999999.7 seconds / 60 = 4999999.995 minutes
4999999.995 minutes / 60 = 83333.33325 hours
83333.33325 hours / 24 = 3472.22221875 days
3472.22221875 days / 365 = 9.51293758562 years
9.51293758562 years / 10 = 0.95 decades

It would take you 0.95 decades to scroll to the bottom of the list, assuming there's no page skips or a function that takes you automatically to a certain numbered game.

Endless fun.

FYI... This system originally came with 1 billion games, but they had to pull Rock Band out at the last minute due to problems with the guitar. Apparently it didn't meet their quality standards.

This type of console is very old, they only change its design from time to time. I believe that it has just 3 basic games in that 999 999 999 in one cassette : a tank game, a Super Mario Brothers clone and a game where you shoot ducks with the gun. In 1994 or so it was called this console was marketed by the name "Terminator" :) .

1 billion was to many games?

These consoles are really common in South America. They are pirate versions of Famicom, commonly called "Family game". You usually have cartridges with "45 in 1", "500 in 1", "999 in 1", etc. which have Super Mario, Galaga, and 5 or 6 more games. The rest are modified versions of the first games. Say, a Contra which starts on level 2 would be "COntra 2", etc. You can also have individual games on cartridges, there´s an adapter to play NES games on it, and viceversa.
Some cartridges even claim to have the latest games, like Pokémon back when they were popular, and recently I even saw one with a Wow image on it.
You can see them on "south american ebays":

Yeah, even with the 999,999,999 game mention, it's at best 100 games with different name logos. Honestly, seen plenty of these things out there, buy them when you see em cause they're each about a week away from it's own lawsuit and demise.

Yes but does it blend?

I bet it goes down real smooth.
