Nintendo Lasabirdie

Hey Guys

I have some information on the Nintendo/Ricoh Lasabirdie system from Japan. It's a golf game/simulator that uses light sensors and a golf club to register your swing. Pretty unique stuff.

I have a video of the unit here:

The beginning fo teh video uses still pictures then it changes to actual gameplay video. I did a narration to explain how it's used.

Thanks,
Eric

I really enjoyed the demo. I've never seen one of those in use before.

how much did it cost in yen?

In 1995 it was 46,800 yen, which was about $450.

This seems quite familar to the Real World Golf game that was just released on PS2 and XBOX except for the fact that RWG uses strings to sense movement, but this is cool either way and probably much harder to find.
