Here's a nice batch of updates.


New Games and Systems
Over the past few weeks, 7 retro game systems have been added to the Retro Game Room which has increased the RGR library by around 1,336 games. The added new systems include:
-Sega Saturn (75% of the games work)
-Phillips CD-i (only around 25% of the games work)
-Atari Jaguar (only around 10% of the games work)
-Pokemon Mini (most of the games work)
-Sony PocketStation (75% of the games work)
-Magnavox Odyssey 2 (most of the games work)
-Sega Pico

Since all of these games still need to be tested and configured, they are currently only available to Beta Testers of the site. To become a Beta Tester, you need to buy the "Beta Test Ticket" for 10,000 viz here:

Each system will become available to everyone once the staff has finished testing and configuring the games of each system. The CD systems and the systems with a lot of games will take longer to test.

Some of the games for these systems may not work and some may not function properly. Some of these can be fixed once the staff get to them while others may never be playable. Also, I'm still working on adding more games to these systems.

You can find a complete list of the newly added games here:

Need Viz to play these new games? Scroll down for information on how you can earn a lot of Viz in a very short amount of time just for helping out Vizzed.com.



New Item Shop Item: V-Machine CD
As some of you know, the V-Machine item lets you play all games for free once you've paid the Viz for it but it doesn't let you play CD games for free (due to their disk space and bandwidth). I've added a new item to the item shop called 'V-Machine CD' which also covers CD games for 50,000 Viz (except PSX).

CD systems on the site that this covers include:
-Sega CD
-Sega Saturn
-Turbo Grafx CD
-PC-FX
-CDi
(more to come)

You can see that item as well as all other items here:

Playstation Games
Vizzed has had Playstation games for quite a while and the library keeps on getting bigger and bigger. The only way to view and play our Playstation library is by purchasing the 'Playstation' item for 50,000 Viz:

Earn 10,000+ Viz
I've created a new thread full of new offers which allow you to earn a ton of Viz in a very short amount of time. For more information, go here:

New YouTube Channels
I've created 3 new YouTube channels which will have different purposes:
Vizzed Video Game Commercials: A channel dedicated to video game commercials (this is where all the old commercials will go)
Vizzed Video Game Music: A channel dedicated to video game soundtracks
Vizzed Productions: A channel dedicated to events, tournaments, competitions and compilation videos

Of the 3 new channels, the only one which has content currently is the 'Vizzed Video Game Commercials' channel. The other 2 channels will get content added next month.

Be sure to subscribe to the above 3 channels and also subscribe to the already existing channels:
