Background: The Casio Loopy is a 32-bit home video game console primarily sold in Japan. Targeted at young females, the Loopy included a built-in thermal color printer that could be used to create stickers from game screenshots, with almost every game released for the system using the printing technology. An optional accessory, called "Magical Shop", allowed the machine to be used with outside devices (such as VCRs and DVD players) to obtain images.

(October 18, 1995-December 1998)

Logo: On a blue background, the white outlines of the word "CASIO" in its corporate font fly in from both the left and right sides of the screen to the center, causing a bright flash which makes the rest of the logo white.

FX/SFX: The logo flying from opposite sides of the screen and the flash.

Music/Sounds: A 6 note electric piano tune.

Availability: Seen when a Casio Loopy system has been turned on. The system was a big flop in Japan (due to the niche demographic), and was released in a limited amount of copies which makes it hard to find. Check sites such as Ebay to see if they have a copy of this system.

Editor's Note: None.
