Gaming Historica | All About: FM Towns Marty エフエムタウンズ | Fujitsu (1993) | PART TWO (Patreon)

The FM-Towns Marty used only CD games and was 32-bit powerful. It had many arcade games that are very good quality. In 1994 they released FM Towns Marty 2 and this was grey and not white. It was Fujitsū try to make the machine cheaper to sell more because it was not do so well against the Super Famicom. It was meant to be a special machine for richer people like the Neo Geo. even the games were cheaper than Neo Geo they were still expensive at that time.

In the end the console is not successful enough for Fujitsū. And the real problem? It was too expensive!To let you understand this, the FM Towns Marty cost $710 USD in 1993. The FM Towns Marty 2 cost US$670.. still very expensive 😵‍💫

Because of this cost the FM Towns Marty is not able to stay alive for long and was finished in 1995 after only 2 years! 😔

End of part two!! ♥️

PLEASE LOOK FORWARD TO PART THREE!
