CAMERICA -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Camerica was founded in Canada in 1988 and released 13 game cartridges, including 3 multi-game carts, for the NES. Some Camerica games appear in silver cartridges, and some in gold. There are no variants, each game is either one color or the other. Just as the company was going out of business at the end of 1992, it created a new product called the Aladdin Deck Enhancer that supposedly offered superior processing and graphics and worked with smaller proprietary game cartridges. The only new game developed for this device was Dizzy the Adventurer, their 14th title. The other 6 games made for the ADE (Big Nose Freaks Out, The Fantastic Adventures of Dizzy, Linus Spacehead's Cosmic Crusade, Micro Machines, Quattro Adventrue, & Quattro Sports) were re-issues of existing Camerica games. It turned out that this device did absolutely nothing and the games were identical to the original releases.

It's unclear whether or not the Aladdin Deck enhancer was ever actually sold in stores, or if the unsold inventory found its way into the hands of collectors after being wholesaled following Camerica's closing.

In an aggressive marketing move, Camerica hired 1990 Nintendo World Championships winner Thor Aackerlund as its official spokesperson.
