Does the console play DVD's?

No, it does not play DVD or Blu-Ray movies, nor does it play audio CD's. It will only run Wii U and Wii software (including titles downloaded from eShop and virtual console).

No. In fairness, it would be more expensive then due to licensing agreements and almost everyone has a DVD player. It has the hardware to play blu ray discs and DVD's, but not the software. Some people illegally install the software and others think it will come in a future update.In fairness, the off screen play and dual screen functionality for local multiplayer more than makes up for lack of DVD player. It also plays netflix and hulu in full HD 1080P. Maybe take a look at the Mario Kart 8 bundle that comes out in a week or so. It's a little more expensive but includes the best game of the year on any console, more accessories and a 2nd game free download code with Mario Kart 8.

Yes, it has a DVD/CDR/CDRW/DVDRW combo drive. That means it can play dvds, cds, as well as burn them.

No. It does not. No netbook can play dvd's for the fact that they don't contain a drive.

That depends on your gaming system. You might have to ask Nintendo. I thought all gaming systems were the same not like DVD players.

Absolutely. It plays any DVD Blue Ray or regular. It also will play Music cds and, if you would be so inclined, will read a disc with pictures and allow you to show them on your TV. It will also allow you to acccess the internet if you have a WiFi modem. If you like you can stream movies from Netflix or Amazon it you are a member. Great piece of equipment!

Yes. It will play CDs. Optical drives like this Samsung are ALL backward compatible to older disc formats. If it plays Bluray, it will play DVD and if it plays DVD, it will play CD.* *Because they still build all Bluray (blue laser) optical drives with DVD/CD (red lasers) as well

Yes, they all play regular dvd's, not just blurays. If you only have a 720p/10801 television, then the bluray player will output the pic at that level. You may have to adjust the settings, but it will still out output it at 720p/1080i

Yes, I think so. I play DVD's on tv and portable dvd player. I am not sure about cd's, for I have not tried burning cd's in this unit, and I'm not sure it even does cd's???

Yes, it has a CD/DVD drive. You will need software to play a DVD and I am not sure it comes in the std Microsoft package. I use: Sonic Cine Player DVD which is very inexpensive. I watch DVDs on mine all the time.

Yes, this system does play cd/DVDs... However I have not gotten a chance to use it.

No, it doesn't. You'd need to buy an external drive if you wanted to play DVDs through this machine.

Nope, just slide the DVD in and hit the play botton...Nice little set.Good Luck,

Yes. The PS3 plays PS3 Blu-Ray games, DVDs, PS1 Games, Blu-Ray movies, and CDs.

Hi Gaius, no, you don't. Regular DVD Players can play converted DVD videos. -Vincent

Thank you, Paul! I have the disc and the "Quick Setup Guide", but don't seem able to play certain DVD's.

No, but you can use HDMI cables or audio video cables to play games, DVD, or blue ray movies. Hope that helps.

Hi there - short answer is yes - just hook it up and it'll play any DVD - I play discs from both UK and US on my US TV and they work fine
