Born in the wrong place and the wrong time (for us zoomer)

One of the coolest stuff in video game history and we can't replicate it
>>
Those japs had it good man
>>
Is this a "Wrong generation" thread? Along with "I wish I was Japanese..." as well?

I confess ,i wish i was an expatriate in japan during the 90's (born in 99 in reality)

I'm glad it flopped. We didn't need digital only, streaming, subscription to access games shit any sooner than we got. Yeah, the hub was cute and the streaming audio was interesting, but it wasn't something that needed the service to function. 3rd parties already had 3rd party add ons that allowed CD audio on the system and Nintendo could have easily done the same thing if they wanted to.

lmao, we just need someone saying they wished Japan would have won WW2

Eh, we're getting there. You can hop on Satellaview+ right now. We just need it to work on real hardware.

I wish Japan won world war ii

I cant imagine a weeb being that retarded to actually say that, unless in jest.

>>12463762
Was there a similar fan project for Sega Channel?
>>
>>12463678
Why can't we have threads to discuss things without you extremely dour people always trying to police us by slapping cringe labels on everyone?
>>
>>12463805
Yes. I haven't used it.

If they had won they would never have made good technology or anime

>>12463669
By virtue of being in the year 2026 and having access to emulators and ROM dumps, you are able to experience more of the Satellaview library than 99% of the people who actually owned one.
>>
>>12463864
No the satellaview experience include a schedule to play the game and live commentators and music

This is not emulated

Satellaview+ does all this.

>>12464172
It should be able to work just fine, just move the ~700-800 files that the client downloads to Retroarch on the deck and run BS-X.sfc.

>>12463878
Knew a kid that had this. When I'd sleep over there, I'd wait until everyone else went to sleep, then play as much as I could, and read as much of the notices and tips and contests and shit.
We played through Gunstar Heroes on it, checked out the gimped version of MK3 with like three chars available so they could keep the filesizes small enough.
Wanted to get Xband, but my parents wouldn't go for anything like that.

>>12463678

Why? All you'd need is the Satellaview in the 90s.

This looked so cool but I didn't care enough about netplay at the time. I wish someone would make one now. I know emulators have netplay but what would it entail to make one for gen 4 consoles these days? Like an FPGA with pass through and wifi antenna?
Sega Channel was a great idea but was too inaccessible to be realistic longrun. I wish the FDS kiosk model had been adapted for other consoles, especially today; I can't be arsed to download 100gb games to try on a whim with Gamepass. Being able to take an SSD to a store and load games would be a lot easier and ease slack from data centers.

Lol

Then don't open a thread with cringe "I was born in the wrong generation" or "I wish I was Japanese..." bullshit.

I mean desu 90's gaming in Japan looks so fucking cozy, it's hard not to wish you were Jap during that golden age.
>>
>>12466661
It was the opposite of cozy, it was a wild west of bizarre ideas and boundary pushing not seen before or since anywhere else; that's what makes it so tantalizing.

you know what, having unofficial "subscription services" skinned like the satellaview or sega channel with the entire catalogue of games, or even scheduled releases that people in a community can enjoy at the same time, would be a soulful alternative to the flash carts full of games you'll play for 5m and then never touch again
