Episodic Gaming

Runtime: 59 Minutes

We learn all about the Satellaview, a satellite tuner for the Super Famicom that allowed Japanese Gamers to download games to memory cards. We look at its history, starting with its creation, and following through its cancellation. We then talk about its library, many of which were remakes of familiar Nintendo franchises, such as Mario. Our discussion has us talking in depth about the Legend of Zelda titles in its library. Join us for this week's weird Zelda game trip down Memory Card Lane.
