Pure fan service. The 32X was barely sold in Japan. Only like half the titles (so, about 15 games) were even released there, with only one Japanese exclusive.

Remember, Virtua Fighter was a phenomenon in Japan. People bought Saturns in 1994 just to play Virtua Fighter, and the later Super 32X port is often regarded as an even better port of the game.

By the way, that's a famous anachronism because that scene takes place in the Summer of 1994, before the PlayStation was even released in Japan and more than a year before it was ever sold in Europe.

A Neo Geo CD-like console appears in the A Certain Magical Index Movie, complete with a Metal Slug ripoff and the infamous Juggling Monkey loading screen. Somehow it fits that Touma would end up with the console that has terrible loading times.

I wouldn't be surprised if a bunch of 32X's were scooped up from clear-out bargain bins by people who went from Mega Drive to PS1 just to get access to Virtua Fighter. In the US I think 32X's eventually started going for $30 or something.

Everyone who's old enough remembers being their autism being triggered by the game gear In Rumble in the Bronx because it didn't have a cartridge in it.

Like, they couldn't just buy the cheapest cart available at wherever they got the game gear to begin with?

If you plugged in another control another player could issue commands so it does technically work, but generally it's just a case if suits not giving a fuck.

The movie is from 1984, two years after the release of Pac-Man for the 2600. Jackie Chan is suppose to be a Japanese race car co-pilot who is testing out some wacky 'high tech' Japanese race car in a Cannonball Run race. He played the same character in the first Cannonball Run as well. The sequel is pretty cheesy and not as good as the first. But a dumb-fun Burt Reynolds movie.

Fun fact: The creator of Sim City, Will Wright, participated as co-driver with Rick Doherty and won the US Express, the successor to the real Cannonball Run, in 1980.
