Sega shifted the focus of its game marketing to a much younger age group when it released the Pico "edutainment" system. It was designed as both a learning tool and gaming platform for kids. The Pico console resembled a laptop PC. Sega advertised the Pico as "the computer that thinks it's a toy." Inside the console was a stylus called the "Magic Pen" and a drawing pad. The Pico did not come equipped with its own screen and required a television hook-up.
When a child touched the Magic Pen to the drawing pad, pre-rendered characters could be animated or original pictures could be drawn. The Magic Pen aided children in learning how to use a computer mouse. They could also control action on-screen by using the Pico's directional arrow keys like on a real personal computer.
Software for the Pico system was called "Storyware." It was fashioned like a storybook. The Storyware game cartridges fit into its slot in the top lid of the Pico. As Storyware pages were flipped, the television screen changed and displayed new pictures. Voices, sound effects and music also accompanied the turning of each Storyware page.
Interested buyers pls call Mr Ho 9451 7070 or sms.
