Casual Photos: Creativemu's Latest Homebrew for the CreatiVision, Diagnosticart

Mon, 06/01/2009 - 1:49pm — Bill Loguidice

I just took a set of three new iPhone photos, below, of the new Italian homebrew from the Creativemu team, Diagnosticart, for the CreatiVision, a hybrid videogame console and computer from 1981. I have numbered and signed release 16 of 40. I also have Creativemu's earlier CreatiVision Multicart Version 1:0, number 92 of 100. The CreatiVision system from VTech was released in pretty much every major territory except North and South America, and was widely rebranded. I have the Australian Dick Smith Wizzard version of the CreatiVision (the only NTSC compatible system was released in Japan and is very rare and valuable). The Diagnosticart is the three ROM version, with future expansion for an optional fourth ROM. The Diagnosticart performs Keyboard, Video, and Video + Audio tests as part of its current three onboard ROMs.

I don't believe I have any handy, but it looks the same as the system on the front of the box in the blog post. It looks like any other CreatiVision system.

That's a pity. I'd rue the day when that happens here, since that's what I use to host all of my images.
