Description

The Satellaview is a satellite modem peripheral for the Super Famicom, produced by Nintendo as part of the fourth generation of video game consoles. It was released in Japan on April 23, 1995, as the successor to the Famicom's Network System.

Containing a megabyte of ROM space and 512 kilobytes of RAM, the Satellaview allowed players to download games, magazines, and other media through satellite broadcasts provided by St.GIGA. Players purchased or rented a broadcast satellite tuner. It attaches to the expansion port on the bottom of the Super Famicom. The Satellaview received extensive support from third-party developers, including SquareSoft, Taito, Konami, Capcom, and Seta.
