In Germany, the PDC is rebranded as "MGT (Mobile Games Technology) Pocket Star LCD - Spielkonsole 30in1" by importer PEARL or sold under the original Name "PDC" from Videojet at Toys R Us. The Videojet-Version is available with 30, 40, 50 or 100 games. A 200 games model was also sold.

System overview

Games

The PDC is a closed system with 100 built-in games, mostly unofficial clones of other popular titles, including clones of Loderunner, Arkanoid, Puzzloop, Sokoban, Bomberman and Nintendogs. The advertised line-up includes:

  • 6 action games
  • 4 racing games
  • 6 entertainment
  • 3 casino
  • 5 puzzle games
  • 6 table

The console does not support saves, so they must always be restarted from the beginning. The "pause" menu, triggered by the dedicated button on the console, simply pauses the game and asks either to resume the game or go back to the main menu.
