Okay here’s the box for the actual Mark III. It only got cooler

I earnestly feel like there are echoes of the Mark III in the dreamcast’s design, down to the modularity of the console

also!! you could get a COLOR PRINTER for the thing!

for all the fuss we make about consoles just "becoming computers", in the 80's, you could just like use your famicom or mark III as a home computer. You could even write games in BASIC with more capabilities than you would have on, say, a commodore 64 retrocomputing.stackexchange.c

@poss_bot Perfect early-'80s example: The ColecoVision game console was the centerpiece of the add-on version of the Coleco Adam home computer system.
