Template:System-Infobox The Philips CD-i is a discontinued video game system, and was the first to be CD-ROM-based. Nintendo originally partnered with Philips Media to develop the SNES CD for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System. However, the project was later aborted. The CD-i was originally released in 1991 at the price of $700 in the United States.

After the SNES CD was abandoned, Philips Media released three games for The Legend of Zelda series, one for the Mario series (while another was planned but cancelled), and a version of Tetris under contract from Nintendo. The Zelda and Mario games received very bad reception, and the system generally had poor sales.
