I'm anxiously awaiting Bobby Roberts coming in and saying exactly what model laser disc player sanjuro could have fit in his backpack.
what did Sega channel even do
These were relatively cheap. Later models had fucking soundboards built in.
I felt like a damn spy with mine. Memory made it basically like saving a tweet due to character limit.I remember always wanting one of those 90s electronic organizers because I thought they were like mini computers at the time (meaning I thought you could play games and do desktop stuff on them) but thank God I never got one based on that assumption.
goddamn. this is fucking napalm.It was always easy to separate the poor kids from the rich kids based on if they had a legit Tamagotchi or a checkout aisle ripoff version

actually the only time i used to feel poor was the lack of a starter jacket and/or a stusy/mossimo/no fear tee. 😫It was always easy to separate the poor kids from the rich kids based on if they had a legit Tamagotchi or a checkout aisle ripoff version
I wanted a Cybiko so goddamn badly. Then my cousin got one for Christmas and I was super jealous. Then, as it turns out, the thing sucked major ass. I mean, yeah, you could chat with other Cybikos! At least, on the very, very, rare occurance that another one of the 500,000 sold nationwide happened to be within shouting distance.
Aspiring animators everywhere rejoiced when color PDA came out for note flipping action!Also PDAs in highschool that shit was so cool.
iirc it was bulls, cowboys or hornets or your weren't shit. maybe braves too. 90s kids were such bandwagoners.man I didn't even want to bring fashion into it but my older sister got a starter jacket and then when my moment came I got her handmedown. at least it was the bulls.
I had a huge poster of Shaq in my room when he was on the Magic, but the Jazz were always my team. And thus I fucking hated the Bulls.iirc it was bulls, cowboys or hornets or your weren't shit. maybe braves too. 90s kids were such bandwagoners.
hey perverts porn means something else now other than your disgusting hobby deal with itGive us nostalgiac porn thread or we riot.
Space Trader was still better than Drug Wars to me.
Motherfuckers were playing Drug Wars and shit on there during class

I found one of these a few years ago that still worked. The recording on it from when me and my brothers were kids was hilarious.

Sega Channel was freaking amazing. So far ahead of its time.Keep in mind, this was 1995.
I remember starting to mod games and then starting to write my own stupid stuff. Fun times.http://i.imgur.com/9CBHo8R.png

A kid in my neighborhood had one of these. Made me super jealous. He never let anyone else play with it either.
This one time he bounced it off a curb and hit my friend Carlos in the balls.
Sega channel worked on the same technology as pay-per-view. You'd rent this cartridge from your cable company every month that looked like this:
And you'd run a coax cable to your Sega Genesis using this cart. Every month, they'd select 50 games out of the Sega Genesis library and broadcast them in a loop across your cable provider. When you turned on this cartridge you'd get this menu:
which let you select between the games being broadcast every month. For $15 a month, you got unlimited play of all 50 games.
It was like blockbuster video directly in your house. 50 fucking games a month for $15, and many of the games on Sega Channel either came early, like when they released Mortal Kombat 3 like 6 weeks before it shipped, or were outright sega channel exclusive, like Mega Man: The Wily Wars and Alien Soldier.
The cart also had SRAM so you could save your games. I played through soooooo many genesis games that way, like Shining Force II, Beyond Oasis, Phantasy Star IV, etc.
