Okay so today I was doing my usual gaming news browsing around the web and found out about Xband which was a way to have online gaming with your Sega Genesis or SNES. I'm sure some of the gamers on here that played games and remember the 1990s probably remember this but I always thought that online gaming started with the Dreamcast and hit full stride with the PS2 and Xbox. This thing was way more advanced then what I thought it would have been, but I'll let you check that out. So if anyone remembers this or had it let us know a little more about it and the best thing is this is not Madden related gaming content for a while (which probably means no one will even notice this thread). Here is an original promo: [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HnnND_UTU6Y"]YouTube - XBand Promo Video[/ame] Demo of it working: [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JYquuc4dyuc&feature=related"]YouTube - Xband[/ame] [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QZ87mYwjop4&NR=1"]YouTube - Super Nintendo Xband Footage[/ame] [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LwBkGhec8M8&feature=related"]YouTube - Connecting to SNES Xband Network[/ame] Wikipedia description of XBand: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xband Oh and here is a couple videos of the Sega Channel as well: [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sMRLZcBiN-k&feature=related"]YouTube - Sega Channel Memories pt1[/ame] [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3bvC6RwA88Y&feature=related"]YouTube - Sega Channel Memories pt2[/ame]
Glad you liked some of my Xband videos from YouTube. I had it for the SNES. I only played one game of Madden on it. It took FOREVER to get through! After that, I stuck with Mario Kart and NBA Jam TE.
