      The Sega Channel was the same thing over Cable TV and it came out 1 year before the Satellaview.
      But the PlayCable was a cable TV game service that came out in 1980.
      It was for the Intellivision.

    omg, y'all are my heroes. As the perfect intersection of Japanese-exclusive Nintendo esoterica and lost media, Satellaview is my jam! 🤩 So, fun fact I learned the other day; The Satellaview was supposed to have an HDD. There's an unused "EXT." bay inside it, and according to the original patent, that was for a 'hard disk drive'.

    • @alexk8792
      @alexk8792 6 днів тому

    4:00 That rendition of the Dark World is fantastic. Without your preservation, I would have never gotten to hear it, even if it's short and talked over. Thanks so much for this!
    It's interesting to see what else this promo is advertising. For example, I have never heard of 弟切草 (Otogirisou), basically a visual novel. I'm not quite sure what is being advertised here (the game existed outside of SatellaView so I guess this is just a "downloadable" title here?) but it's interesting to hear about these games too. Incidentally, a fan translation for it has been released just a few months ago! Neat!

    Awesome video! I'm wondering why Nintendo decided to use satellite technology. I mean, a 14.4, 28.8, or 33.6 baud modem from that era would probably also be sufficient for transferring those tiny bits of addons.
    Edit to myself: As I was reading Wikipedia about how much a modem cost at that time, it's most certainly the price. Such a modem cost about $250 USD.

The BS-X cart itself is worth maybe $15 average, but the data cards that may have rare downloaded games and data on it are around $30 each.

Sony and Nintendo didn’t see eye to eye as the project went on and Nintendo tried screwing over Sony, the project fell apart and Sony decided to make it their own console. Nintendo then went to Phillips and together made a terrible deal and the worst Zelda games ever. That served them right, Nintendo in the 90s was downright arrogant.

    BS Marvelous: Camp Arnold

    Edit: and to be clear, I’m not talking about emulation, I mean I want to know if any of these are still playable on official, un-modded BS-X cartridges that received the broadcasts in the 90s. Unsurprisingly, my search for this oddly specific information has yielded no results.
