Retro Pals Podcast, Episode 2: Games Without Frontiers
30The Retro Pals Podcast returns with an in-depth look at the Sega MegaNet, a pre-Internet downloadable games service for the Sega Mega Drive in Japan. A bunch of these games will be featured in the upcoming Mega Drive Mini, which includes the rarely seen compilation Game no Kanzume Otokuyou. We also cover other digital game services from the '80s and '90s, including Atari's GameLine, the Broadcast Satellaview, and Sega Channel.
If you've used any of these services in the past, please share your experiences with us in the comments! Yes, even you, Sega Channel kids. God I wanted Sega Channel so bad...
