Greeny Arcade

As depicted from the 1994 commercial, Greeny Arcade is a multimedia gaming system, released from the people behind the TV show, Greeny Phatom. There is also a portable version called Greeny Arcade Pocket Handheld.

History


Development of the Greeny Arcade dates back to 1992. Then, Greenytoons founder, Robert Stainton was testing out some arcade games in a local arcade he owned, until one day, he found an arcade cabinet with a CD-ROM drive implemented (which was a early Dragon's Lair cabinet). Heavily inspired by the idea, he decided to go to work. He then told the entire staff that he wanted to plan out an arcade system, codenamed at first, "Arcadia".

Development of the console started in May 1992. The Greeny Arcade was supposed to look like a real arcade system, but it took the developers a lot of time on the project. This idea would later be implemented on its successor, Greeny Arcade 256, except the color of it was green. By late 1992, Codename Arcadia was given a name. A name that feels like it's GreenyWorld Studios-related. The final name was chosen, as Greeny Arcade.

The bent arcade screen took the longest development, which took 4 months to complete it. It took 1 year and 2 months to complete the prototype.

By 1993, The prototype was revealed at the 1993 Summer CES near the Greenytoons Studios of GreenyWorld Studios. The prototype of the cabinet had a few glitches with very early builds of the games that it could play. The prototype looked a lot like the final version of the Greeny Arcade. The cabinet was fixed in August 1993 and the console was finished in September 1993 using Windows 3.1 OS.

The only thing the crew forgot to add was launch titles, thus delaying the release. The first game to start production for the Greeny Arcade was Guns n' Blossom, which started production after the prototype was finished. sold 8 million units during its first few weeks.
