Revision as of 07:07, 19 July 2018

Fangkuai Zongdongyuan (方塊總動員) is a multicart developed by Waixing in 1996 containing two games, Mali Yisheng II (瑪莉醫生II) and Shenqi Ba Bao (神奇八寶). The use of -總動員 (general mobilization of-) in a title was widely popularised by Pixar, who used it for most of the Chinese titles of their films beginning with Toy Story. [1] The pause screen shows a production date of 1996, which seems plausible as Toy Story was released in late 1995 (Toy Story opened in China on March 28, 1996)
