Apparently the Timetop Gameking beats the Virtual Boy, with 13 games released (that are known). The Super ACan has a really small number of games - perhaps something like 13, as well.
But yeah...that Action Max and Adventurevision really blow it away...sort of...with their lack of software support LOL
I'm also sure the Leapster (if you count that as a system, which I think one should) has a miniscule library).

Don´t forget Gamate and MegaDuck...there are a very little game library for these systems...

Well if you count all the import releases too, the Virtual Boy has alot more than just 14 games, but if you don't count all the import versions of games that were released here there's only about half a dozen more than we got. And of course that small handful of games are the rarest and most wanted VB titles now, so I assume that's why they all go for $100 - $1000 on ebay.

If it's something purely console based I'm going to have to say the 32x. Then the virtual boy.

the game.com doesn't have THAT many...
EDIT: The GameFAQs database has 19 registered.
The sega pico had around 16 games and little demand. It is defintely one of those noveility systems.

US wise, PlayStation has the largest right now at 1276-ish. PS2 may over take it soon.
Laseractive US only had 18....

I actually went and picked up a Pokemon Mini unit when the Pokemon Center in NYC opened up. WHAT A LOAD OF CRAP that thing was. Thank god the boxes were not shrink wrapped, I brought it back that very day. It wasnt even cool enough to keep based on cute factor or cool factor.

Did'nt the Microvision only have about 8 games?
But yeah, I'd say the Adventurevision wins out. I've actually played one. Not a bad system, just came out at a awfull time and had little support.

The Jaguar CD would also be a contender with only 11 titles released. Plus a couple of Telegames releases.
Amstrad GX4000 only has around 20 titles.

Amstrad GX4000 only has around 20 titles.
26. With possibly another couple that haven't surfaced.
No-one mentioned Nuon (7 games) yet?

Aww man, I love that system! Especially since it was $10 for the complete collection :D

Also worth mentioning that all of these low-game-count systems are just as hard to finish off as Intellivision, or Coleco. I'm SURE there are more complete intellivision collections than there are adventurevision collections :)
No-one mentioned Nuon (7 games) yet?
You beat me to it :)
Pokemon mini:
I got 5:
Party, Puzzle Collection, Zany Cards, Pinball, Tetris.
I really thought there was only 6, but 11?
So far I only know of Puzzle Collection 2, which is very rare.

a ha! everyone seems to have forgotten the much loved Halcyon system... cost 2,500 bucks and only ever had two games released for it... makes me feel very sad for whomever bought it LOL , especially since both the games really sucked.
EDIT - more info on the Halcyon can be found here (http://users2.ev1.net/~rik1138/Misc/RDIHalcyon.htm), or just google.

What about the Sega Pico?
I always put Game.Com and Virtual Boy as the smallest library

NUON - 7 games
PC-Engine SuperGrafx - like 5 games which will not work on regular PC-E
Halcyon - 2 games, ouch!
Indrema - 0 LOL , this puppy died even before birth
Actually, NUON has 8 officially released games if you count Crayon Shin Chan 3 which only came with the Korean NUON DVD player.

How about the Telstar Arcade? Only had 4 games, and #4 was barely released. A fifth one is listed in the DP Rumor Mill.

I think, though, that somewhere in the docs it references 37 games. I've only seen the 13 that everyone else has, however.
I'm also sure the Leapster (if you count that as a system, which I think one should) has a miniscule library).
It's already over Adventurevision's 4 though... IIRC there are at least 6 games for it.
Another poster mentioned Halcyon, but has anyone ever come up with proof that it was actually released?
A system no one's mentioned yet but is definitely in the running is the Ohio Art Etch-A-Sketch Animator 2000. There are only 4 carts, but one is just a Memory Cartridge; there are only 3 games (Overdrive, Putt Nutts and Flyby).
