Description
Epoch had difficulty producing the Casette Vision consoles and satisfying demand due to the costs of manufacturing them. In response, Epoch released the Cassette Vision Jr., a cost-effective remodel, on July 19, 1983. This version was priced at ¥5,000, far lower than the original model, and was designed specifically to be cheap and more affordable for consumers. The Cassette Vision Jr. retains most of the same features as the Cassette Vision, omitting the volume dial controller and having a redesigned keyboard layout to make certain games more intuitive to play. The Cassette Vision Jr. was successful for its low price point and lack of competition, and like its predecessor was commercially successful.
