Camerica never recovered from the release and shortly after was forced to close down. However, by the time the product was released the Super NES and Mega Drive/Genesis were already released and the product never had a sizable installed base to warrant a large amount of software. Also, since the slot for the actual game was much smaller, less material was needed to produce a cartridge. Camerica was one of the major purveyors of unlicensed NES games, so the Deck Enhancer was a logical creation for them.

The idea behind the Aladdin Deck Enhancer was to provide a cheaper means with which to make the game cartridges mainly because each cartridge requires its own 10NES lock-out chip, RAM and extra circuitry. : side A The device contains 8 kilobytes of RAM for graphics use, much like 24.7% of all other NES games released in the U.S. Inside the slot where the Compact Cartridge is placed is a recessed switch, which changes the Security/Region settings from position A to position B. First, the Compact Cartridge would be inserted into the Aladdin Deck Enhancer, which is shaped the same as a standard NES cartridge, and then this would be inserted into the Control Deck. Invented by Richard Darling, the Aladdin Deck Enhancer contains a bypass Security Circuit Chip, a Memory Control Chip, and a Graphics Chip, : side B which would work with the lock-out chip and other features inside the Nintendo Entertainment System.
