Tandy/Memorex VIS

(1992-1993)

Nickname: "Vidmark Ripoff"

Logo: On a black background, we see the pink-purple gradient letters "VIS" surrounded by a white box, wiping upwards. Black lines then "etch" into the

letters. You can see "VIDEO INFORMATION SYSTEM" below, colored pink. The green text "Authorized Video Information System Title" appears below.

Variant: If you don't have a CD in the machine, the yellow text "Insert a disc or cartridge" is below, and it stays on screen throughout the animation.

FX/SFX: Simple animation.

Music/Sounds: A "whoosh", then a synth drone.

Availability: Seen when a VIS CD system is turned on. This system is pretty hard to find (it only sold 11,000 units, and only about 25 games were released for it).

Editor's Note: None.
