1st Basque Country CD-i Philips Tournament 2023 – Results

1st Basque Country CD-i Philips Tournament 2023

(All text by Egoitz Campo)
Last Saturday, 11th of February, Euskal Retro Association organized the 1st Basque Country CD-i Philips Tournament. After buying the console more than a month ago, we thought of organizing a tournament so that there would be an extra incentive to play this console. In addition, the people of The World CD-i told us that they could publish the news on their official website and even create a High Score with our results and with those of other CD-i fans around the world. That definitely motivated us a lot.

We met at 4:30 p.m. at Bar Jofer in Santutxu (Bilbao – Basque Country). Initially, the idea was to meet at the Bar Azteka, but we had to change places because the owner closed the bar that afternoon. First we played another great console, Atari 2600 and then at 18:00 we played the Philips CD-i, a very interesting interactive console. We played four games: Ms Pac-Man (Arcade Classics), Escape from CyberCity, Video Speedway, and Mystic Midway. 8 players in total.
The afternoon was entertaining and people liked the console. For example, it was very difficult for them to play Escape from Cybercity, and for good reason because it is an extremely difficult and fast game. If you don’t have great reflexes, you’re dead right away. Instead, they all enjoyed as children playing Ms Pac-Man (a classic arcade game), Speedway (the best car game from Philips, interesting driving game) and Mystic Midway (great game of shooting skulls and other kind of things that are very scary).
We played Ms Pac-Man in hard mode until they ate us for the first time. In Speedway; we played the training and the race of Verona, and we wrote down the time that each player needed to take the first lap of the race. In Escape from Cybercity we played in rookie mode, and we recorded the points that each player got before they were killed; and in Mystic Midway the final score that each player got in a single attempt.
The tournament was won by Egoitz, although we must remember that the previous week he was practicing at home to be able to win this first Basque Championship. Our intention is to continue organizing tournaments, the Basque Country Tournament twice a year and also that our basque friends and players can participate in the rankings (also our friend Alex, the Nicaraguan, of course). In August, we will do the second tournament.

Here we leave you the results (In parentheses the points obtained):

1st Basque Country CD-i Tournament


A few weeks ago I have been contacted by Egoitz Gonzalez, a Spanish CD-i enthusiast.
He is from Bilbao city, in the Basque Country (north Est of Spain) and got this crazy idea to make a tournament of CD-i games.
He and some friends have decided to buy a CD-i player with some titles just to organize this event. Wonderful!

So, if you are from Spain and want to participate in the 1st Basque CD-i Country Tournament, don’t miss it!
Saturday, 11th of February 2023 at Bilbao (Spain) will take place at “Bar Azteka” (Calle Fika 50), 06.00PM

4 CD-i games will be rolling:
– Ms Pac-Man (Arcade Classics)
– Video Speedway
– Mystic Midway
– Escape from CyberCity

This is a very good initiative and hope we can see more of this in the future all around the World! Congratulations!
We can’t wait to see pictures!

This is an awesome idea, I have discussed the subject for several days with Egoitz and another idea came to my mind…
At The World of CD-i, we will create a High Score section, based on this tournament idea.
“Can you explain it better, Omegalfa?”
That is a good question folks, of course I can 😉
Each month, a CD-i game will be chosen, during limited days you will play it and try to reach your highest score, then you just need to send a picture of the High Score screen from your TV.
We will publish a list with the TOP 5 Hall of Fame of this specific game with your username and country.
Points will be attributed and a ranking will be created. A list of the TOP 5 usernames and countries will be set for each year.
Simple right?
Get ready… it’s coming…
