Won't you help Pops? Please!ABOUT THE ACTION MAX VHS GAME SYSTEM: The Action Max was a game console produced by the California-based toy company Worlds of Wonder in 1987. At the time, videogame developers wanted to integrate full-motion video (FMV) into their games. However, game cartridge memory was insufficient to hold the video data. One solution from the time was to use Laserdiscs, as seen in the 1983 arcade game Dragon's Lair. However, due to the high cost of Laserdisc, it was not seen as the best method to bring these games into the home. Also, digital video compression onto CDs was not yet sufficiently advanced enough to hold the video data.Therefore, Worlds of Wonder chose the VHS format to hold the FMV component of their games. After all, VCRs were common in homes at the time, and the tapes were much cheaper to produce than Laserdiscs. All of the games utilized a light gun, with the player shooting flashing targets that appeared over certain objects on the screen. There was also a suction cup sensor that attached to the screen which watched a flashing light in the bottom right corner. The purpose of this light was to tell the console whether the object on screen was an enemy, which would result in the player gaining points for shooting them, or an ally, which would result in the player losing points for shooting them. As VHS could only play from beginning to end, the game is the same every time, with the goal remaining to collect as many points as possible.
