I'm kinda sad that there aren't more people covering this. Such a cool project, thanks for bringing more attention to it. From what the creator told me, they're planning on doing more than just "reviving" the Satellaview. Today they posted a video where Super Mario World was one of the available games and if you update and play the game right now, you can find a tower for homebrew games
Pretty cool that the SNES hacker scene is restoring things like this. You know, I'm just thinking how cool it would be if Nintendo actually added a feature like this to the Switch online service. They could even include all this original SNES/Satellaview content as part of it. That would just be such a neat nostalgia trip right there. And, with the success of the recent F-Zero 99, I think it's obvious there's still a huge amount of love for all this classic SNES content. Edit: Look at almost all the replies to my comment below. Boy do we have problem with trolls and Nintendo haters in modern times. Nintendo ain't perfect, but some of those comments are just absurdly OTT, ergo, the people making them are absurd.
@@VideoGameEsotericaThis is the Nintendo that hounds anybody (or their legal department anyway) for including any Nintendo content on their channel. They really are so hostile to the fanbase that sustains them, and of course the fanbase are like abused spouses: “it’s ok, you don’t know them like I do” etc.
For a while, I kept thinking you were forgetting your channel’s name when you started each video, haha. The way you enunciate it: “Videogame Esooooooo? terica!” Now, if you said it any other way, it would feel off. 😂
Looks amazing! I love the passion the Nintendo community has, hell the retro community as a whole! Teams like this deserve way more recondition for restoring this lost art! Side note, I wonder if it could possibly work on the wii via Homebrew? The wii Hombrew community is amazing, and I would love to see this work on there! Since there is already a snes emulator on there
Being a guy who works at a grocery store 5 out 7 days a week this would basically be impossible for me to play stuff at certain times of day but it’s an interesting concept
This is brilliant, I love it, can't wait for it to be mature, would be amazing if it got ported to MiSTer and OG hardware one day too, I love the idea of a modern day version of this as well, or maybe this could be used to build on with new features and games as if the service never ended, add in weekly challenges and high-score competitions et cetera, a cool way to show of homebrew games, and you could also have demos of modern SNES game releases, would love to see the Sega Channel too, does make me want a kind of mini internet closed platform for MiSTer though, with the same kind of design, with weekly MiSTer magazines, videos, game music, demos, retro challenges and who knows what else, a virtual game store done in the style of the N64, would be dope af, "MiSTer neT".
Ah, they need to recreate the news and weather services too! 😅 It’s a very early web era idea to use a virtual town as a menu - think the varying neighborhoods of Geocities.
Are they recreating the radio portion of BS-X? I know a few broadcasts got found, but not all of them. Playing BS Mario 2 without the characters in the corner actually talking always bugged me.
You use a loader to download files from the server that emulates the broadcast times, then you run it at the next broadcast time to see the next chunk of games broadcasted then
@@VideoGameEsotericaunless someone gets the licenses and sends a LITERAL SATELLITE to space… maybe not They’re making a recreation of the Sony and Nintendo collab to have CD-based games called the Superdisc+, and Satellaview+ is supported and will auto update over the internet!
I hope this gets supported on Linux and Raspberry Pi systems running Batocera and RetroPie, this would be awesome for those with a home-made Super Nintendo/Famicom Mini.
Heh, I just downloaded the bsx rom to mess about with on my Mister last night. Be nice if they could arrange to get this working via that or the Po compatible emulators
This is very interesting there's a lot of history to nintendo and sega I had no idea about. Gotta love the hacking and modding community that do stuff like this! It's crazy to think in real life, there's bad hackers and good hackers that create stuff like this.
I tried it a bit years ago when I made my personalized collection of roms, I have only 17 games in my roms folder, I didn't like the rest too much and I think only one was a Chrono Trigger music player xd.
Hello everyone, this is Ryuhei Yamanosuke from Nintendo’s legal department. Just leaving a comment to say that we here at the Nintendo megacorporation are funneling all our resources into destroying this Satellaview fansite. Fans who enjoy our older games are of course a very real problem and we are doing our best to put an end to this. Thank you for your compliance in this matter.
@@VideoGameEsoterica at least write it here?i used the SNES9X route and im on the client,what do i do in the client?it updated a bunch of .bin files and,what now?i did try to launch BS-X.sfc with snes9x and it said there was no signal.please tell me what way you tried.
"so much fun" "so much fun" "PVM" "I can play the real thing anytime" But remember this guy grew up in the US and didn't experience any of the cool stuff, except Pit Fighter and Mortal Kombat.

But Nintendo would have to be cool to do something like that haha
@@VideoGameEsoterica Well, "cool" is relative. But, in principle, I get what you're alluding to.
It’s up to hobbyists to preserve game history as it’s clear, that by and large corporations don’t care about their history.

@yellowblanka6058 they def do not
You won't believe this!!!! just a month or so ago I wished satellaview to return and here it is!
Haha willed it into existence
Same broooo
@@VideoGameEsoterica exactly
I had heard about this from a different video and thought it was incredibly interesting! Glad to see more people covering it it an amazing project
This is exactly the stuff I love…weird and unexpected mod work
Wow are you kidding, I JUST got a Satellaview this afternoon in a massive sfc lot locally! I would Love to use it like it should!!
Seems like they might try OG hardware eventually
They’re also gonna make a Superdisc+, a recreation of the SNES and Sony collaboration
Don’t we already have that? Or at least the bios
@@VideoGameEsoterica I don’t think so…
For a while, I kept thinking you were forgetting your channel’s name when you started each video, haha. The way you enunciate it: “Videogame Esooooooo? terica!” Now, if you said it any other way, it would feel off. 😂
It’s become a meme so I run with it
OK so when is Sega Channel coming back???
Haha I was waiting for that question
@@VideoGameEsoterica Funny enough I actually had Xband for my Genesis, but my dialup connection maxed out at like 24K on a good day. It was awful.
That map music is catchy as hell. I want to use it in a frontend as background music.

It could probably work everywhere if coded correctly and I hope eventually it does
Now if only someone can find and unearth the missing weeks for BS Shiren the Wanderer…
Sadly it may be lost 🤷🏻♂️
Being a guy who works at a grocery store 5 out 7 days a week this would basically be impossible for me to play stuff at certain times of day but it’s an interesting concept
It’s highly inconvenient but also highly authentic
That vertical shoot 'em up is giving serious Star Parodier vibes.
Def heavy inspiration
This makes me wonder how many other forms of lost media could come back on the table.
More and more keep coming back so you never know
Oh wow! That's great to know VGE. Thank you for sharing this with us. 8^)
A very fun and unexpected development

Yes I hope it comes to all platforms so everyone can enjoy it
Ah, they need to recreate the news and weather services too! 😅
It’s a very early web era idea to use a virtual town as a menu - think the varying neighborhoods of Geocities.
It’s def of its era as far as visual design language is concerned
Awesome video as usual, might be nice to put the link in the description :)
Ugh did I forget again
Fixed 😂 links are my kryptonite
Any chance you will be live streaming this?
I’m too busy as it is haha
Are they recreating the radio portion of BS-X? I know a few broadcasts got found, but not all of them. Playing BS Mario 2 without the characters in the corner actually talking always bugged me.
I believe they are where they can
SoundLink support will launch today at 2pm. It will require a separate client to be downloaded, however.
Good to hear! Pun intended lol
How fantastic that they're keeping to the scheduling. Some BS we can actually enjoy!
Haha yep. I held this video til today as they will be resuming broadcasting in august
Is it using original data? Did they get the broadcasted audio files for the live broadcast?
From what I understand they are sending the audio as well when available
It would be neat if they added support for connecting to this server to the SNES MiSTer core.
Have they started broadcasting yet?
I haven’t seen a broadcast yet but they said 8/1 so maybe soon?
You use a loader to download files from the server that emulates the broadcast times, then you run it at the next broadcast time to see the next chunk of games broadcasted then
Where did you hear about the Super CD thing?
@@VideoGameEsoterica the Discord server has a link if you’re interested
Thanks for sharing as usual ♦
Happy to :) fun project
Holy……shiiiiiiiiiiiii!
would be rad if one day we have access to the f zero satellaview games
Would def be nice
Wish this worked for original hardware since I’ve had mine new in box for 25 years. :(
I think the plan is eventually it will
@@VideoGameEsotericaunless someone gets the licenses and sends a LITERAL SATELLITE to space… maybe not
They’re making a recreation of the Sony and Nintendo collab to have CD-based games called the Superdisc+, and Satellaview+ is supported and will auto update over the internet!
Was there any way to interact with other users?
Not that I’ve seen
Have you ever checked out that Link to the Past Satella version?
I’ve never played through the entire thing
I hope this gets supported on Linux and Raspberry Pi systems running Batocera and RetroPie, this would be awesome for those with a home-made Super Nintendo/Famicom Mini.
Might need a little rework to deal with Linux protocols vs windows but would probably work
Heh, I just downloaded the bsx rom to mess about with on my Mister last night.
Be nice if they could arrange to get this working via that or the Po compatible emulators
MiSTer would be a good option as communicating out would be easier than real hardware
Dang it, I should have known that TH-cam would delete my comment. So sensitive TH-cam!
It was about Mai wasn’t it?
@@VideoGameEsoterica It was about jamming a SNES controller up their rectum.

There’s some gold in the list but there’s some calcified poops too
Satellaview+:done randnet+:done famicom modem next?
You never know
I hope they do BS zelda map/quest. All I have is the MSU1 hacks.
Me too. The hacks aren’t the same

It's ZELDA TIME.
Just make sure you are free during the broadcast 90s style
Windows only.... :/ Guess I'll wait until it supports real hardware.
Might be a bit
