V.Smile
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
V.Smile is an educational game system by VTech. It is designed for children ages 3–47. Titles are available on ROM cartridges referred to as "Smartridges", to play off the system's educational nature.
The buttons on the game system and controllers are large to accommodate small children's less developed manual dexterity. The system uses flashy colors and large fluorescent buttons to attract and maintain children's attention. This is one of the first game consoles to have a compartment to put the cartridges into. Because the console is designed around smaller children, it uses simpler sprite objects rather than polygon graphics.
Many titles released for this console are themed off of popular children's shows like Bob the Builder and others.
