The Casio Loopy (Japanese: ルーピー, Hepburn: Rūpī), subtitled My Seal Computer SV-100, is a 32-bit home video game console. Released exclusively in Japan in October 1995 with a price of 25,000¥, the marketing for it was completely targeted to female gamers.
The console is powered by a Hitachi SH7021 SuperH 32-bit RISC CPU running at 16MHz, and had 1MB of RAM and 2MB of ROM. It was capable of displaying 512-color graphics and of playing 4 channels of 12-bit PCM audio.
The Loopy has one controller port for use with a standard game controller or with a mouse which was sold separately.
The Loopy includes a built-in thermal color printer that could be used to create stickers from game screenshots. An optional accessory, called Magical Shop (マジカルショップ, Majikaru Shoppu), was a video capture device to obtain images from VCRs and DVD players. Users may add text to these images and make stickers. Including Magical Shop's own built-in software, the Loopy library contained 11 titles.
Developer Kenji Terada worked on I Want a Room in Loopy Town! (ルーピータウンのおへやがほしい!, Rūpī Taun no O-heya ga Hoshii!).
Software development ended in November 1996, and Casio ceased production of the console in December 1998.
