Damn, I had no idea that SNES and Genesis had online gaming.

It was mostly sports games.

Maybe, but still quite interesting. The concept of the internet and online play wasn't even something I was really aware of back when I had a SNES.

do you know about satellaview? is not a online play but it's pretty cool.

Yeah I was aware of the Satellaview, mostly through the exclusive games of which ROMs are available, like Ancient Stone Tablets.

Goddamn this was a thing?
Cousin used to have this and somehow the connections between him and the other people he played Doom with were flawless, despite him living in the middle of the woods and 90s online play being as finicky as it was.
You guys are like little baby, watch this

hefty amounts of lag, but you got used to it
I had Sega TV growing up. Shit was great.

that's not the best part
the best part is the XBAND actually just hacked the game's memory on the fly, it's kinda like a game genie with a modem attached

Think that's strange? Snes also had online banking.
