I wish Nintendo would rerelease the satellaview games on the switch. obviously some changes would need to be made to replicate what it was actually like playing them, but still, it's an important part of Nintendo's history.

If that were to happen in the 1990s, Nintendo would have to join forces with a satellite company (like Dish, RCA or PrimeStar) to make distributing something similar to the BS-X service a reality for the SNES. Dial-up internet is too slow, the telephone line belongs to the X-Band video game modem, broadband internet is many years away, and the Sega Channel owns the cable TV video-gaming landscape.

The worst part about the Satellaview is that not all of the games were saved, and are now lost to the sands of time. It's such a shame that so many games are completely lost and unplayable.

Something else about the Satelleview was it live streamed music while you played! F-Zero played licensed classic rock songs for example, and yeah there was voice acting too in stuff like Mario and Fire Emblem. The Fire Emblem maps were actually remade for the sadly Japan-only remake of FE3 called New Mystery of the Emblem for the DS, but it's still nice to see some of that old gaming history survive officially.

I was told gunpei yokois grandfather was ceo of st giga and after some digging it appears true. Supposedly after they heard of his work with the virtual boy they mentioned joining forces and it went from there

I never really view it as forgotten or obscure, even though it really is. I found out about it 4+ years ago when i got into the Fire Emblem franchise, I started with the gba entries then backtracked, and on my path I found out about this system because there was an FE game on it. When they remade the third entry in the series, they actually included the story and characters from the satellaview game which was pretty rad of them.

I turned 6 in 1995, and I seriously thought this guy was at least 10 years older than me.

Holy crap you were born after 1995? That's insane to me. Also that shelf is driving me ABSOLUTELY insane. Genos Woods makes it okay though

I still remember when the bz zelda team worked like hell to get those games into a functional state. So many memories getting BS Zelda and Ancient Stone Tablets running

The "weird computer guy's" name is Satebo. ;) He acted as the mascot for the Satellaview (along with his satellite dish counterpart Parabo,) as well as a character in some of the Satellaview games. This is a really great and accurate video as far as I know, amazing job!

I recently came across both BS LOZ and Ancient Stone of Tablets.

So was definitely cool to see more Satellaview games out there!

The shelf above the Bowser wall art gives me a little anxiety that it is going to fall. (nice video refresher about the Satellaview!!)

I remember AVGN talked about Satelavision once on Legend of Zelda, in the Japanese version there was a microphone in the NES controller where you can scream into and it modulated your voice and scared away the big bunny eared monster because it hated noise

Internet became public use in 1993. Satellaview was out in 1995. Let that sink in

The Kaizou Choujin Schbibinman series actually has ONE game that was localised in the west (NA), Shockman

In the words of Clyde "Tomato" Mandelin, the thing looks like a Super Frankencom.

Dang dude, Bowsah done melted your shelf! I keep thinking,....is that stuff gonna fall off there??! CATCH IT BRAH!

I think that you should make this a series called "Forgotten Bits."

You were close on BS Zelda 1. It was a Soundlink-only game (the ingame music sequences apparently existing as a fallback since it was such an early game), in which you played as the same character as you did in the BS-X town (Link also seemingly being a fallback).

Saddened by the lack of no more than the mention of warios woods existing, not even mentioning it got aired twice in different skins The second one was as close to the American release of SNES Wario's Woods as Japan got with a few modes removed, and Birdo or Catherine as she's called there, being replaced with an honestly creepy but not scary rendition of... Er... Stevette...? But first they used it as some kind of advertising for some show called burst to laughter, where Birdo and the Whomp wall were replaced with sprite versions of real life actors. Again, Japan didn't get the SNES version AT ALL, so these were the only times they ever got a taste of it. You left them out though, which is a suuuuuuper shame, and makes me suuuuuuper sad

Sattelite? That's out of this world!

RIP Near/Byuu. They were one of the legends that helped preserve the Sattelaview

How can you look so old but yet so young at the same time

That's one small step for game, one giant leap for game kind

This sounds really good wow

The BxS shooter game was made by Athena's own Dezaemon, where Dezaemon is basically a "shmup maker" or "2D shooter maker" (i prefer the term 2D shooter than shmup or runNgun) Dezaemon is available for NES (reportedly the hardest to emulate), SNES (probably the best one), N64, Saturn, and PlayStation And it's surprisingly powerful, even have contests where people bring memory card and share their games, and the PS1 one reportedly came with weird and bizarre assortment of contest-winning games.

Nowadays the most similar thing would be Telnet based MUDs and CGI/PHP only webgames. Yeah it's all text based (webgames can have graphics but still won't be interactive ones) but everything is rendered on the server. It could be interesting if someone just use PHP to make a game that would change itself depending on what time you log into the game. It's totally possible. (Well... Glass terminal style client games, for example, Minecraft, would also allow minigames and things like that. But there's very little stuff you can do to make the experience "not as Minecrafty" so it probably doesn't count.)

THE WOWOW PART KILLED ME XDXDXDXD

Before you were born...way back in 95...that's funny stuff...I mean God 1995 was like so long ago...okay, I'm busting your chops a little. Good and accurate video, keep up the great work. ;) What...no Chrono Trigger either...thats it I sentence you to 40 hours of non-stop Chrono Trigger or until you beat it! The shmup is pretty much Parodious (misspelled) for the Super Famicom.

Think Nintendo would ever do a sort of "reboot" to this? Obviously not with St. Giga, but perhaps on their own terms?
