The Casio Loopy (ルーピー Rūpī), subtitled My Seal Computer SV-100, is a 32-bit home video game console sold exclusively in Japan. Released in October 1995,[1] it was unique in that the marketing for it was completely targeted to female gamers. The Loopy included a built-in thermal color printer that could be used to create stickers from game screenshots. An optional accessory, called Magical Shop, allowed the machine to be used with outside devices (such as VCRs and DVD players) to obtain images from them, add text, and make stickers from those as well. Including Magical Shop, which contains its own built-in software, the Loopy game library contains 11 titles. The CPU is the same as Sega 32X CPU[2] The Loopy features one controller port for use with a standard game controller or with a mouse (sold separately). Noted developer Kenji Terada worked on Loopy Town no Oheya ga Hoshii!
