Anyone else love the early steps at online gaming? I think it's really interesting watching it evolve.

No I don't enjoy remembering that nightmare. Especially SEGA Channel. Some of the keyboards are neat though.
Wasn't till 6thgen that you actually had games made for online.
Knew a kid in elementary school who's family had Sega Channel. I pretty much lived at their house for a summer staying up all night playing that shit, and fucking around on AOL chatrooms trying to get girls to send us pics.
The games did take a while to download, maybe ten minutes? But playing through Gunstar Heroes two player was awesome. First played Vectorman on Sega Channel. I think MK3 was split into two or three parts with a few characters in each part probably to save on the download time. Still some good ass shit though.

Can confirm
We had Sega channel for one summer
My fuckin dad used it more than I did but it technically did work
I can't remember any specific games we downloaded
We ended up losing the entire Sega collection in a yard sale for $60 had the 32x , CD add-on , and a shit ton of games (30+ games)
It's not a sad story though, I recently bought all the pieces again and built my own +burned a huge library of games & grabbed the everdrive MD
