A Satellaview research blog.

One of the biggest batchs so far (Part 1)

Hi. It’s danyl, again! This is just that I think we should speed-up the releases (we have something like 28 dumps to release but I’ll release the first half in this post). So, let’s get started!

This memory pack contains one of the last volumes of the magazine serie “BS Nintendo HP”.

It’s also one of the very last new magazines EVER aired in the whole Satellaview broadcast period before Nintendo definitively stops making new content for the Satellaview, and then St.Giga begins to rerun most popular/latest games/magazines between April 4th 1999 and June 30th 2000.

So here is a small summary of its content:

It’s about new Nintendo news (like the SpaceWorld) / releases (like the Nintendo 64 ones with Yoshi’s Story and F-Zero X).

(Yeah, I admit it’s kinda short.)

BS Nintendo HP (1999-3-21)
BS任天堂HP(1999-3-21)

This memory pack contains two others Satesupo volumes. These magazines are about the horse races, I don’t have so much to say about it.

But the only thing I have to add is that we got before is a corrupted dump of 8/05 volume and randnetdd have in his hands the 7/29 one.

This memory pack contains a user data Sound Novel file and a magazine of the radio program “Ijuin Hikaru no Kaidenpa Hasshin Kichi”. It’s about a November festival, and some cute girls. Also, this memory pack contains some leftovers of the G.B.S. version of Actraiser (we already got it).

[User] Sound Novel 1 + Ijuin Hikaru no Kaidenpa Hasshin Kichi (1996-11-09) / [User] サウンドノベル1+ 伊集院光の怪電波発信基地(1996-11-09)ROM Download

Yeah I know, I F#CKING know I did so much low-efforts on these ones, but I promise I made a real research effort for the next ones ;)) .

This memory pack contains another volume from the magazine / radio series “AK Live Hit Gang”.

Some details can be found about it in the “かべ新聞ニュース” :

 

“『今日のピック・アップ・ソング』のテーマは“独特な声を持つ人々”だ!夏に向かって『市川博樹のサーファー道』も要チェックだぁ!!”

“The theme of “Today’s Pick Up Song” is “People with Unique Voices ”! As we head into summer, be sure to check out “Hiroki Ichikawa’s Surfer Road” !!”

However, the memory pack contains also leftovers (in fact 5Mbit) from 8th trial version of the PC Engine game “百物語 ほんとにあった怖い話”. Yeah because at the very beginning of the Satellaview (precisely between April 26th and September 2nd 1995), Hudson aired a 10-parts trial version of this game (it was originally planned to release in Super Famicom but it was instead released on PC Engine due to lack of storage space).

Here is some footage pictures :

This memory pack is more interesting. It in fact contains Twice of the “Bakushow Mondai no Houkago no Ousama” magazine from June 6th 1995. However, one of these two copies seems to have been partially overwritten by an RPG Tsukuru 2 User File. Fortunately, the second one is 100% clean.

Some details about it can be found in the “かべ新聞ニュース” :

“今日はダブルゲストで、“市原真紀&パンクラスの山田学” だー!美女と野獣・天国と地獄ってかんじだね!”

“Today, we have a double guest, “Maki Ichihara and Manabu Yamada from Pancrase” ! It’s like beauty and the beast, heaven and hell !”

The next one is also a Bakushow Mondai magazine.

This memory pack contains the 4th volume of the special-summer serie Bakushow Mondai no Natsuyasumi no Ousama. Its about a “Taku” Hiroshima tournament sponsored by Hazuki, and petitions (these Taku are painting exclusives to this show).

Again, some details can be found in the “かべ新聞ニュース” :

“爆笑問題ワイドの人気コーナー”拓”のイベント「拓フェスティバル’95」が好調に列島を南下中である。札幌、熊本横浜大会が大盛況で終了し、8月12日には広島大会、8月19日には山形大会8月26日には原宿のギャラリーでの東京大会と、引き続き大展開の予定だ。”

“「全国縦断!拓フェスティバル’95」も今日も含め残り3日!本日の開催は広島“はづき”宅にて。自己申告制の女子のみ参加可能だ!”

“Taku Festival ’95”, an event featuring the popular “Taku” section of Bakushow Mondai Wide, is making its way south through the archipelago. The Sapporo and Kumamoto and Yokohama tournaments have ended with great success, and the event is scheduled to continue with the Hiroshima event on August 12th, the Yamagata event on August 19th, and the Tokyo event at a gallery in Harajuku on August 26th.”

“There are only 3 days left of “Nationwide! Taku Festival ’95” including today ! Today’s event will be held at Hazuki’s house in Hiroshima. Only girls who self-report can participate !”

Also, it contains leftovers (in fact 4Mbit) from the premiere variant from August 6th 1995 of BS Zelda no Densetsu Dai-1-wa (this what I think because even if it similar to the rerun one it’s still kinda different).

This memory pack contains 2 magazines. The first one is an episode of Ijuin Hikaru no Houkago no Ousama from February 5th 1996 about squid fishing (I am not joking), and the second one is the Game Tora no Ooana Special from March 7th 1996 about the New Yatterman trial version (than we found a long time ago).

Some details can be found in the “かべ新聞ニュース” :

For the Hikaru Ijuin magazine :

“に来て下さい。次はいかを釣るぞ!たぶん今週あたりに、又、小田原へ釣りに行くと思います。もしご一緒したいという方は、朝6:30頃に小田原に来て下さい。次はいかを釣るぞ!”

“Please come to Next time I’ll catch a squid ! I’ll probably go fishing in Odawara again this week. If you would like to join us, please come to Odawara around 6:30 in the morning. Next time I’ll catch a squid!”

For the Game Tora no Ooana Special magazine :

“今日の新作ソフト情報局は、懐かしのTVアニメがゲームになって復活した『NEWヤッターマン』を紹介!期待のダビスタ’96一口情報も!!”
“Today’s New Software Information Bureau introduces “NEW Yatterman,” a nostalgic TV anime that has been revived as a game! A bit of information on the much-anticipated Davista ’96 !!”

This memory pack contains a redump of the last volume of “Yuuki Nae no GE-MU no Tsubo” (from March 23th 1997), and the last volume of its predecessor “Yuuki Nae Ashita ni Nareba…” (from March 29th 1996). It seems that the picture at the very end is a teaser of “GE-MU no Tsubo”. However, this one is corrupted. LuigiBlood has indicated some details about this corruption :

– Corruption at 0xB001F – 0xB0023 (bits 1 into 0, weird)
– Block Corruption at 0xB00C0 – 0xB02D6

This is why the image in the 4th screenshot seems to be kinda glitchy as you can see.

Also, some details about it can be found in the “かべ新聞ニュース” :

☆奈江もさよなら、そして……!?

“「裕木奈江 明日になれば…」も3月29日(金)で終了してしまう。しかし、明日になれば……ではなくて、2日後の3月31日(日)になれば、奈江ちゃんの新番組がすぐにスタートするのだ。タイトルは「裕木奈江 GE-MUの壷」。毎週日曜17:00~17:20放送だよ。お楽しみに。”

“この1年間の名コーナー&ビッグイベントを振り返りつつ送る『明日になれば・・・』最終回。最後の奈江ワールドをご堪能あれ。”

☆ Nae also says goodbye, and then…?!

“ “Yuuki Nae Ashita ni Nareba…” will also end on Friday, March 29th. However, not tomorrow… but two days later, on Sunday, March 31st, Nae-chan’s new program will start right away. It’s called “Yuuki Nae no GE-MU no Tsubo”. It will air every Sunday from 17:00 to 17:20. Look forward to it.”

“The final episode of “Ashita ni Nareba…” looks back on the best corners and biggest events of the past year. Enjoy the rests of Nae’s world.”

This memory pack contains 2 magazines : the first one is a Game Tora no Ooana which is about the upcoming game releases of June 23th 1995, and the second one is another magazine of Okami Ga Kita (the first dump we got before is the one from June 11th 1995) which is according to LuigiBlood, corrupted of 1 byte (we couldn’t figure out where exactly the corruption is).

Some details about these can be found in the “かべ新聞ニュース” :

For the Game Tora no Ooana magazine (Fun fact : it was also its official description in its original building) :

“『今週はお買い物情報』今週は8本が発売されるぞ~さて、キミはどれを買う?”

“In this “week’s shopping information” 8 products will be released this week ! Now, which one should you buy ?”

For the Okami Ga Kita magazine :

“今一押しコーナー『あゆみのハートに投げKiss』!では、キミたちのハートはくぎづけだぜ~!大好評の『泉谷のエサ』は “鈴里真帆” ちゃんだ~!”

Here is the very last thing of the part 1 (and the most unexcepted) :

This memory pack contains another volume of the magazine serie “Nintendo Power Magazine”. Precisely the volume 111 (the 107 had been found a very long time ago).

But before you say some bullshit like “Oh ! I aM SuRe ThE vOlUmE 001 wAs AiReD iN aPrIl 1995 !” – the kind of absurdities I generally see in some forums/websites, let me give you the volumes list :

“さて、今回の『NINTENDO POWER Magazine』はとうとう決定したPokemonの全米での発売を記念して、6ヶ月だけ発行されることになった別冊付録「Pokemon POWER」を特集してお送りします! これは、「NINTENDO POWER」本体に付いてくるものなのですが、なかなか読みごたえがありますよ。『111』は、9月6日(日)から10月10日(土)までの5週間、放送の予定です。ご期待ください!お楽しみに。”

☆Nintendo Power Magazine

“Well, this issue of “Nintendo Power Magazine” will be featuring “Pokemon Power,” a special supplement that will only be published for six months to celebrate the finally confirmed release of Pokemon across the US ! This is something that comes with the main Nintendo Power unit, and it’s quite a satisfying read. “111” is scheduled to air for 5 weeks, from Sunday, September 6th to Saturday, October 10th. Look forward to it ! We hope you enjoy it.”

And, that’s all for the moment. But don’t worry, the part 2 will come quickly after this one (and I promise than this time, you’ll not have to wait nearly 1 year for the next post).

I am trying again to do a new blogpost (with some trial versions + leftovers)

Hi ! it’s me on the air again. Yeah, I know than I am recurrent in the latest blogposts, but I try to be useful and yeah sadly, we didn’t find something better or just insane as BS F-Zero GP2 (I sort of predicted/teased it in the WaiWai & Kirby blogpost), but we have soooooo much things to release right now :

The first memory pack contains a “trial version” of Shougi Zanmai !

yeah “trial version” is in quotes because it has the same content than the SFC Retail but it has 3 limited starts according to Satellaview Tsushin from February 1996 :

“放送されたお試し版の内容は、製品版とまったく同様だったぞ。つまり、対局も、詰め将棋も、シューティングも、みんなまとめて楽しめたのだ。ただ回数制限があって、3回プレーで終了というスタイルだった。それでも、じっくり遊んでもらえたんじゃないかな。お試し版は残念ながら21日で終わっちゃったけど、再放送に期待したいよね。”

“The content of the trial version that was aired was exactly the same as the product version. In other words, everyone could enjoy playing games, playing chess, and shooting all at once. However, there was a limit on the number of plays, and the style was that it was over after three plays. Even so, I think they were able to take their time and play with it. Unfortunately, the trial version ended on the 21st, but we look forward to the rebroadcast.”

In the data itself, most of 00 bytes are replaced with FF ones.

Well, let me give you the broadcasts list :

1995/12/16~1995/12/22(2 times per day)
1996/01/15~1996/01/21(2 times per day)

This one is… kinda disappointing.

Its seems to be another SD Gundam GNEXT Data Pack distributed which as the name suggests adds more than 30 extra Mobile Suites (generally from older SD Gundam games).

But when I checked the ROM and compared it with the regular MAP Data one, the data was 95% identical. The only difference is than it doesn’t include the 6 extra Maps from Map Data

Fun fact : it was supposed to be distributed from January 1st 1996, but it has been delayed :

☆SDガンダム追加データ放送開始

“衛星対応ソフト『SDガンダムGNEXT』の追加データが1月16日(火)からオンエア開始。当初の予定では1月1日の放送開始だったのが遅れてしまい、プレイヤーのみなさんお待たせいたしました。もちろん、今から『SDガンダムGNEXT』を買う人も、まだ間に合うよ。”

☆SD Gundam additional data broadcast starts

“Additional data for the satellite compatible software “SD Gundam GNEXT” will begin airing from January 16th (Tuesday). The original plan was to start broadcasting on January 1st, but the broadcast was delayed, and we apologize for the inconvenience. Of course, there’s still time for those who buy “SD Gundam GNEXT” now.”

Source : かべ新聞ニュース (1996/01/16)

Let me give you the broadcasts list :

1996/01/16~1996/01/31(4 times per day)

It was aired during a very short period because it has been replaced with Map Data one from February 1996 (its kinda a V2 of MS Data since than its include the 30 Mobiles Suites + 6 extra Maps)

This one include another magazine of Uchida Yuki Yuugure Street Kids, but this time the one from 1995/09/09.

And yeah, Lily Franky made a small cameo in this ! (as in others ones like 1995/07/29 and 1995/05/20 but I disgress)

If you want to know what is the content of this, the “かべ新聞ニュース” has a nice summary of this :

“極秘情報によると、「内田有紀大改造計画」なるものが進行中らしい。と言っても、有紀ちゃんが改造人間にされるわけではなくて、「夕暮れストリートキッズ」のコーナーを一新するという計画の事なのだ。彼女にやってほしい企画があれば、番組あてにハガキを送ろう。レギュラーコーナー「ブラックメール
フリートーク」や「バーチャルポエム2001」など楽しさ120%!君とシュールな時間を過ごそうぜ!!”

“According to top secret information, something called the “Yuki Uchida Major Remodeling Plan” is underway. However, this does not mean that Yuki-chan will be turned into a modified person, but rather that the plan is to completely change the “Yuugure Street Kids” section. If you have a project you would like her to do, send a postcard to the program. Regular corner “The BLACK MAIL” 120% more fun including “Free Talk” and “Virtual Poem 2001″ ! Let’s spend a surreal time with you !! ”

This memory pack contains a trial version of Ranma 1/2 – Ougi Jaanken. (this is kinda fun when you know than the anime of this serie has been released recently)

It take 3Mbits instead of the 8Mbits from the SFC Retail, and only the VS Mode + few characters can be played.

I have the official description which promote this trial game :

“落ちものファン必見!!あのらんまがパズルで楽しめる。さっそくトライだ!!”

“A must-see for fans of falling items !! Enjoy Ranma as a puzzle. Let’s try it now !!”

Source : 虎の大穴 (Game Museum Building)

Also, it contains some corrupted leftovers of Wario no Mori Event Ver.1 (Premiere Variant).

Here the partial broadcasts list (yeah partial because I don’t have the entire one) :

1995/07/10~1995/07/16(2 times per day)
1995/07/31~1995/08/06(2 times per day)
1995/08/21~1995/08/27(2 times per day)

Sadly I don’t have the rest of broadcasts, but as I know, it has been reran for the last time during 1996/01/04.

Well, this trial version is corrupted so the zip file include the original dump + Checksum fixed one.

P.S. : No-Intro, if you see this post, consider this trial version as bad dump because we couldn’t know (for the moment) where the corruption is.

Ranma 1/2 – Ougi Jaanken (Trial Version) | らんま1/2 奥義邪暗拳(お試し版)

This one contains a trial version of Panel de Pon. Precisely, only Endless, TIme Attack, and 2P Vs. Modes can be played.

Now let me furnish the broadcasts list :

-Original broadcasts-

1995/09/21~1995/09/27(2 times per day)
1995/10/02、05、07、09、12、14、16(1 time per day)

-2nd Satellaview broadcast period reruns-

1996/07/14~1996/07/20(2 times per day)
1996/08/25~1996/08/31(1 time per day)

We have just to find Event Ver.1, and we will have every Panel de Pon games/versions from Satellaview !

Panel de Pon BS Ban | パネルでポンBS版

And now the rarest / most insane one :

Before talking about this, let me give you some context :

1 year ago, LuigiBlood showed to me in dm some screenshots of this dump and this one kinda intrigued me. Some members of the team was thinking than it was an older version/prototype of an SFC game, Jigsaw Party.

But, its in fact the first dump of an episode of Yuki no Jigsaw Kids than we got !

But if you ask : “WhY iT dOeSn’T hAvE tItLe ScReEn ????” – Someone not familiar with Satellaview

This is because the name of the game was undecided during this period (It only got the name of Yuki no Jigsaw Kids from Late June 1995) :

☆ゲゲーッ?!有紀の〇〇!?

“内田有紀のジグソーゲームの正式名称がついに、決定した!その名はなんと「有紀のジグソーキッズ」だ。あまりに安易なネーミングなので有紀ちゃんもビックリ!?”

“The official name of Yuki Uchida’s jigsaw game has finally been decided! The name is “Yuki no Jigsaw Kids.” Even Yuki was surprised because it was such an easy name !?”

Source : かべ新聞ニュース (1995/06/25)

The internal memory pack name which says than its a rerun and the header date (5/10) makes me firmly believe that this is a rebroadcast of the third episode which has been aired for the first time between May 6th and May 13th 1995 !

As I know there has been 41 episodes of Jigsaw Kids between April 23th 1995 and February 3th 1996.

Yeah because from Early 1996, it has been replaced with Yuki no WaiWai Kids (which has been aired until the March 30th 1996 which I call “The First Carnage” since than A LOT of programs has been stopped at this date).

Anyway, this episode just include some Uchida Yuki & Dinosaurs puzzles.

Yuki no Jigsaw Kids (1995/05/06) Rerun | 有紀のジグソーキッズ (1995/05/06) 再放送

That’s all for the moment, but we’ll have so much more to release during the next months. so, stay tuned !

The biggest batch so far (Part 1)

Hi, LuigiBlood here. I’m late. Very late. Happy Pride month, by the way!

Since the last post in February of this year, a lot of things happened. Anytime I was getting a decent batch, it kept growing up, and delayed it even further. It became almost daunting to manage, especially after a certain anonymous benefactor just dumped like… 40 Memory Packs for me to check since then. Then I kept getting plot twists.

So it got to about 25 things to release. That’s too many to release at once, so I seperated in two batches for me to release some things faster.

I will start with some of the most important stuff, because 2 of these releases has been funded by people:

We actually have been looking for this for a long time. This is the last one of the 3 Dezaemon games that we dumped for a while.

For more context, Dezaemon is a shoot ’em up game editor, released for Famicom, Super Famicom, Playstation, Saturn and Nintendo 64, and with the Super Famicom version, there was also a trilogy of games broadcasted on Satellaview.

This one from the Sugoi STG series was created by Riko Kushida (櫛田理子) from the Game Tora no Ooana (虎の大穴) team, a weekly Satellaview radio program usually coming with a magazine supplement. The name is Jintai (人体) which means Human Body, and boy… does it show.

We finally completed the Satella-Shooting Trilogy, and this one needed some fundraising, and I need to credit the following people who were happy enough to donate money for this:

  • Video Game History Foundation
  • Jonas Rosland
  • cmstar0
  • dillydylan
  • Hiccup
  • History of Hyrule
  • Ballz
  • Matthew Callis
  • Hubz

We had known about this one for a while, but we finally have it.

Bounty Sword is one of the very few real time strategy games on the Super Famicom and was released in stores, on a cartridge, the ROM is actually 3 Megabytes!
Considering that the Satellaview Memory Pack only allows 1 Megabyte of storage, this means this is a cut down version.

I’ve left the research to ChronoMoogle, who liked the base game, and was more than happy to help explain differences between the retail and BS Version:

  1. The titlescreen lacks its intro / background animations and has the subtitle “Satellaview Special Time Attack Version”.
  2. The save file menu is missing, it jumps straight into the game after pushing start on the title screen.
  3. The story cutscenes are extremely simplified and only show text.
  4. The map screen and other features between chapters are missing.
  5. Each chapter gives you a time limit of 2 minutes.
    -> If a chapter is beaten within these 2 minutes, the game advances to the next one.
    -> If it reaches zero, the game goes back to the titlescreen without any saved progress.
  6. Dialogue during chapter gameplay seems to be mostly the same, but the player will be reminded how much time is remaining periodically.
  7. It is pretty tough to even beat Stage 1 within 2 minutes, so cheats would probably be needed to check how many chapters of the game are actually in the data.

As this also needed money, I would also thank ChronoMoogle for the funding of this release as well!

This one is identical to the retail release except for 2 bytes. This is Soreyuke Ebisumaru Karakuri Meiro – Kieta Goemon no Nazo!!, a spinoff game of the Goemon series from Konami, where you guide Goemon’s sidekick, Ebisumaru, to the goal, through a 3D isometric labyrinth by changing the arrow panels as he walks through them.

This was dumped by an anonymous benefactor.

This one is also identical to the retail release, it also has no starts left so it won’t show up on the BS-X menu by default, but that can be easily bypassed!

This is a Super Famicom version of one of the games of Activision’s Shanghai series of Mahjong Solitaire, where you just match two identical tiles together to make them disappear, until it’s empty. It’s playable alone or with 2 players competitively.

This was also dumped by an anonymous benefactor.

This is another retail identical thing, this time however, it’s Lufia & The Fortress of Doom! This one has 2 starts left.

There’s not much to say, it’s the first game of the Lufia RPG series from Taito. I know there’s a lot of retail identical titles for this batch, but Satellaview is also this, a bunch of retail rereleases with limited amounts of starts sometimes, think of them like demos but with the full game.

Huge thanks to Hubz who managed to get this.

Okay, we still have some more games that were released on retail, but I promise, this time it’s a bit more interesting:

This is a cut down playable demo version of Supapoon DX! If you leave the game on the title screen, it would show gameplay demos, but also advertises the full game’s content, such as 100 stages in Story Mode, that you can have fun with everyone in Versus Mode, and ends, with, of course, a “Coming Soon!”

It’s a fun breakout clone game that can played in both single player and multiplayer!

The final game is 1 MB, but they actually made a Satellaview demo version with half the size, 512 KB instead.

Huge thanks to sanmaiwashi for sharing this! And thanks to danyl as well for remotivating me to get back in touch with him!

This is a non playable demo showcase of Elfaria II – The Quest of the Meld. Yes, non playable. This is a pretty substancial and very long showcase of the game’s story, characters and RPG gameplay elements, and ends with credits info and the release date and price of the game. This game was never released outside of Japan.

Again, thanks to sanmaiwashi for the dump!

Okay, the retail stuff are out of the way for this part 1 of this batch, now back to unique Satellaview content.

More content in the Satellaview magazine format! Freud’s Challenge 11th time. Except it’s literally the same as the 2nd version, 95% of the data is identical, just seems to be sorta recompiled.

Freud’s Challenge is a series of psychological tests (putting aside how Freud isn’t really the best example of our time), where you’re put through a bunch of situations, with a question to answer with several choices, or maybe an image to pick through. It’s certainly one of the many oddities of the Satellaview.

There are dumps of 1 through 6 already, and the fact that 11 is basically 2 is certainly feeling more like a rerun.

This is data to be used for Same Game Tsume Game. It’s basically custom graphics to select for Same Game. This is named “User Same Game” in the BS-X menu, there are editors for custom graphics for it, but this is… weird. I don’t actually know for certain if it’s user data or a download. I have absolutely no context for it, but I wanted to release an example of addon data for Same Game that isn’t the usual kind from retail stores.

There were several dumps of BS Nintendo HP. HP stands for Homepage, it’s a Satellaview magazine version of the Nintendo website, where they shared a lot of news about the future of their consoles, incoming games and everything. It used to be deleted via BS-X, so it was “undeleted” to be usable. This means as a result that the data integrity cannot be certain.

The music is also something to behold. This is from February 21st, 1999. Super Smash Bros. even has a full featured menu to explain the game, characters and all!

It’s interesting how late this is, considering Nintendo was about to pull the plug for new Satellaview content support in a month then, leaving St. GIGA alone at the helm after a bad fallout, only able to rebroadcast content.

This dump is brought to you by, again, sanmaiwashi!

I brought you Cheap de Gorgeous Vol. 5 last year, well here’s Vol. 4, dumped by Denizbkg01!

This one was not deleted this time, so the data integrity is totally fine. As a reminder, this is a cooking magazine with recipes and food talk.

The music is the same as Vol. 5, so the music SPC rip is not really needed here.

This next one, we owe you an apology. We had this dump since 2019. It seems that in the process of research at the time, the release just was completely forgotten.

A wrong now fixed. This is “Derby Stallion 96 – Nintendo Breeders’ Cup National Betting Championship Tournament 3”, a soundlink title of horse racing where you can bet on horses… for pretty much already predefined races and results for each, you can watch the original broadcast from back then thanks to kukun kun: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yt2n2l4DLAo

This dump, unfortunately, was corrupted. The download includes both the original dump and a modified version to make it playable.

And, finally, the last one for Part 1:

This is sort of an insane one because we had UNDAKE 30 Same Game Mario Version before. And that was it. There were more UNDAKE 30 titles, such as this one.

This is UNDAKE 30 Ura Game Daisakusen, on a similar principle to Same Game where you make all objects attached to the one you selected that are the same disappear, except there’s a twist that some of them change when you select them before it registers. There’s also a hidden golden 7 that makes you gain more points.

This Memory Pack also includes a redump of Kouryaku Casino Bar Kinyoubi – Slots.

Part 2 will come as fast as I can, there’s really a lot of dumps to deal with. You should not wait too long, there’s still interesting stuff to release.

Final dumps and redumps of the year

This is my final Satellaview dump post of the year, from LuigiBlood 🙂

I’ve accumulated a bunch of dumps and redumps in the past few months, and it’s way overdue again to give the updates, so I’ll seperate it the post in three parts, from three different dumpers.

 

From j4m13c0, we got a Memory Pack dump of two things:

This memory pack contains Kanaderu Score, and is ACTUALLY DOWNLOADED as it is dated, and it actually contains a song from Ryoma de Yuku, one of the RPG Tsukuru 2 games!
So you could edit and see the composition of it, which is a nice bonus.

Then there’s a magazine called Yusuke Akamatsu Theater, it seems to be a story written by Yusuke Akamatsu, and ends with an advertisement of an album by the same person, published by Shinko Music Entertainment.

The download includes a seperate version of the magazine, and the full Memory Pack dump with the Ongaku Tsukuru content. Both were originally deleted, but were recovered, so we cannot confirm if the data is actually good, but it seems to be alright.

From PsyKo, we got an interesting dump:

This is a demo of Harvest Moon, which was previously dumped, but the data was originally considered bad, this one however has not been deleted, and its integrity is confirmed intact. It is slightly different from the other dump, but 99% of the data is identical.

This is worth it just to have some confirmed intact dump of this demo.

Harvest Moon (Demo) | 牧場物語 (Demo)
ROM Download

 

Then, the rest of this post are all dumps from PrincessBeef, who has been really busy buying a bunch of these Memory Packs, and we cannot thank her enough.

First of all, let’s begin with a bunch of games that came from retail builds:

This is Air Management II, aka Aerobiz Supersonic in the US, this is 100% identical to the japanese retail Super Famicom build except for the header, of course.

Aerobiz Supersonic | エアーマネジメントII 航空王をめざせ
ROM Download

This is self explanatory, this is Space Invaders – The Original Game, the remake for Super Famicom, also known for having a smaller version inside the Game Boy version for the Super Game Boy.

This is also 100% identical to the japanese retail Super Famicom version, except for the header again.

ROM Download

Next, some magazines with some extras:

First, another magazine of Yuuki Nae no GE-MU no Tsubo (Yuuki Nae’s Game Jar in english) was dumped from a different date, with different funny drawings based on games, a profile of a game developer, in this case, it’s Hideki Konno, as well as a presentation of Konae-chan no Dokidoki Penguin Kazoku, which is actually the game where Yuuki Nae stars in!

And then includes another dump of Konae-chan no Dokidoki Penguin Kazoku in it, which was already recently dumped and released by Forest of Illusion, it’s a different version of the game that isn’t an Event version!

There’s also some leftover data of what looks like graphics but I couldn’t figure out more about, but I left it in the full Memory Pack dump included.

Yuuki Nae’s Game Jar + KONAE-chan’s Pounding Penguin Family (12/22) | 裕木奈江のGE-MUの壺 + KONAEチャンのどきどきペンギン家族 (12/22)

Now this magazine has confused me a lot. I’ve just shown… all of it in these 3 images.

This is apparently Lily Franky Theater (which was origniall, titled Manga here, but… there’s nothing? It just says “Discarded”. I cannot seem to find anything more about this…
Maybe it was something that was promised and then it didn’t happen and made the most useless content data ever?

It also contains a lot of leftover data in the full Memory Pack dump of what looks like Wario’s Woods, but it’s not placed the same way, so this might be something undumped…?

Cheap de Gorgeous Vol. 5! What was previously dumped was Volume 1, this is a cooking magazine, with a bunch of recipes and sometimes people talking with each other, it was unfortunately “deleted,” but we fixed it.

Next, some redumps, these next two are identical to previous dumps except the dates so I won’t bother writing much about them.

And I kept what I feel is the best for last:

We got another RPG Tsukuru 2 game, BS KureKure Mou Race! A game that you have to finish to then get a password to send via post card and receive prizes on a first-come, first-served basis.

This seems to be the February version, as the name might suggest, but seems also to be the second one.

And that’s all of them!

Thanks again to j4m13c0, PsyKo and PrincessBeef for their time to bring these dumps to the public!

New dumps and redumps, and name corrections.

It’s time for another Satellaview post from yours’ truly, LuigiBlood.

We’ve got a bunch of dumps to share, some of which I should have shared earlier again but I’m here to make it right.

Coming from an anonymous source, another redump of Wario’s Woods Futatabi which the date is 8/11 this time.
It is identical to what is already dumped in the past.

ROM Download

Then all of other dumps come from PrincessBeef, and there’s a lot of them:

It turns out that we got another dump of Bakushow Mondai no Totsugeki! Star Pirates, the other one was Week 1, this one is Week 3! It is a quiz show hosted by Bakushou Mondai performers and others, all Satellaview personality.

That said the dump was unfortunately corrupted, so the Download link will provide the original bad dump, and a version where the checksum is manually fixed, but make no mistake, we don’t know what has corrupted and we cannot fix it for certain.

Then another set of magazines, both of which are undumped volumes of magazines we’ve dumped in the past.

Do-Re-Mi de Faa~! is a magazine dedicated to music, Top 20 of CD sales, and other things, this is Volume 9 from 5/25.

Then there’s BS Famitsu Magazine Kawara-ban Issue 5/24, which was named Weekly Famitsu Express but this is not really the right name.
It turns out the name Kawara-ban would mean like, Tile Print, from the Edo period, and would be considered like Prospectus, it is something that really hammers home how it is a smaller version of Famitsu magazine.

Both came from the same Memory Pack, which I have included in the Download.

Now, another issue of… okay so we said “Machi Magazine Idol Diary Media – Strawberry,” but the name is woolly inaccurate, a proper name would more be like “Future Idol Development System – Media Strawberry”, where… there’s no volume number, we can only rely on the date which is 4/17. Another issue we got was 3/22, which is Volume 12, so this should be dated after, in theory.

The first screenshot explains what kind of magazine it is, courtesy of Google Translate which seems to fairly translate what it is about:

このマガジン型番組は、明日のスターを夢見る、若き乙女たちが続々と登場する、エンターテイメント・アイドルカタログである。
This magazine type program is an entertainment idol catalog in which young girls dreaming of becoming stars of tomorrow appear one after another.

The memory pack also contains some leftover data which I couldn’t decipher, but I’ll include it anyway.

Mirai-gata Idol Kaihatsu System – Media Strawberry – 4/17 | 未来型アイドル開発システム メディアストロベリー 4/17
ROM Download

 

Another Memory Pack with several things in them. The first is a magazine program I’ve never seen before: Satella Yokochō, which we could translate like, Satella Street?

It seems to include a bunch of information about BS-X lore involving the characters and their names! It seems to talk about the local rumors and whatnot, but my knowledge of japanese is still limited and would rather not go too much into the things if I don’t think I understand them easily, but this is cool to have!

And then, a full Super Famicom title: Super Soukoban! And it is absolutely 1:1 corresponding to the retail release, the only thing different is the header part.

The full Memory Pack dump is included with both, it includes leftover graphics from something else, but I couldn’t figure out what it actually is.

And last, but not least, from Hard4Games, an anonymous source and PrincessBeef, a collection of RPG Maker 2, Sound Novel Maker and Music Maker user content!

I may as well because it is still pretty entertaining to check them out.

Redumps and New Dumps that’s overdue

Hey, LuigiBlood here.

…this is way overdue, I really should have released this stuff much earlier, but I’m righting the wrong now.

First things first:

Coming from Marko, and dumped by Kundenbetreuung, a redump of BS Super Mario USA Episode 3, it is literally the same as previous dumps, but here it is anyway for posterity:

BS Super Mario USA – Power Challenge – Dai-3-kai | BSスーパーマリオUSA パワーチャレンジ 第3回

From Aaron Cincinatus… LITERALLY ANOTHER variant of BS Dragon Quest I.

Considering the game contains all 4 episodes in one, and the way it is downloaded prevents us to really understand when it is from, but I can just notice that the data is different from the two other dumps of this game.

ROM Download

 

Techknight came back with more dumps of all kinds, but the most interesting one is another retail game that has seen a release on Satellaview:

This is Nintama Rantarou Special, a game adaptation of the japanese anime series Nintama Rantarou. It has a lot of talking, including some minigame segments for ninja training and also a platformer. This was released as a Super Famicom cartridge title in Japan. The game seems to have about ~20% of differences when compared with the retail ROM.

He also provides us another redump of Yoshi no Panepon, downloaded on July 25th (year unknown), there are no differences with other dumps:

ROM Download

And then a bunch of Ongaku Tsukuru user made music, which you can play in Ongaku Tsukuru:

And one of the best for last, which is insane that we finally have a dump:

From Andrew Henderson, who provided us dumps before, this is the first dump of content for Shigesato Itoi’s Bass Fishing No.1!

This is a magazine containing tons of tips and tricks, as well as a leaderboard. This magazine is different from the others, because it is a magazine that has to be launched from the game, and not BS-X!

So after downloading this magazine, you had to switch cartridges, put the Memory Pack in the game’s cartridge and then select Memory Pack from the main menu:

This is making me very happy, and of course, it contains brand new magazine music, which I totally ripped as SPC format and uploaded for you all:

I will have more to release very soon, but enjoy these in the meantime!

A paradise of cinema and RPGs… and tides of sound.

Hey, LuigiBlood here. Interesting developments have been happening lately, but here’s the Satellaview goods first.

The following dumps are courtesy of PrincessBeef, who bought a couple Memory Packs and dumped them, we found new previously undumped content.

A cinema e-magazine for the Satellaview, providing a story overview, impressions and context of Vampires, Runaway and There’s something about Mary, as well as some mail Q&As.

It also brings some cool music with it, so I did a SPC rip of them… and I randomly find a short Zelda jingle in there for some reason.

Next is another RPG Tsukuru 2 game that was previously undumped.

It is called Organic Stone. There was apparently a teaser version, but this seems to be a one part full story, so that’s pretty cool. My research is that this is a game produced by ASCII staff and that the story is apparently pretty serious and not really about humor.

Unfortunately my lack of japanese knowledge prevent me to understand more.

Reminder that to play it, you need to insert the Memory Pack on RPG Tsukuru 2, and then go to the first menu, and then the 3rd option (Sample Game) and then select the 2nd game (see screenshot).

If you were following my Twitter last week, I have released a bunch of St. GIGA related aircheck recordings and natural sounds courtesy of an anonymous person who trusted me for the release:

You can now find 80+ hours of St. GIGA’s Tide of Sound radio program here: https://archive.org/details/stgigaarchive

As well as a rip of a couple discs of OCEAN BLUE filled with St. GIGA recordings of natural sounds all around the world here: https://archive.org/details/oceanblue_cdrip

It is very easy to forget that St. GIGA was also providing their own radio service, a pretty ambient radio that wasn’t successful enough to sustain more than a decade.
To access that service, you had to pay a subscription fee, unlike the Satellaview service.

A lot of people don’t know that the Satellaview service was actually free to use (equipment aside), because the data transmission was descrambled, and there was a small window of time where the audio (soundlink) was also descrambled and dedicated to the Satellaview service. They relied on advertisements to keep the cash flowing at the time.

The reception of these St. GIGA content releases was great, I feel like today if St. GIGA still existed, they could have been able to reach a bigger audience.

 

Anyway, that’s about it for this post, have fun with the new releases 🙂

LuigiBlood here, bringing now a redump of SD Gundam G-Next’s GNEXT MAP DATA with a different date: 2/25.

This redump was done by techknight! However if I was just going to bring this dump and that would be it, that wouldn’t be fun isn’t it?

Because there’s little to no instructions on how to actually make use of this extra content for SD Gundam G-NEXT, it gets really confusing and fast, I have done my research.

First of all, load SD Gundam G-NEXT with the Memory Pack with this extra content with the emulator of your choice. The game will absolutely NOT tell you the data has been loaded, making it extra confusing to figure out.

In the main menu, there’s a Scenario mode, a Campaign mode, and what’s called ConfigMap mode. The Satellaview content can only be accessible via the ConfigMap mode where you can set up a custom single player or multi player match with the map and units of your choice, so select that mode.

You can now select maps, and you will need to select three types of maps: a Earth map, a Space map, and a Moon map. All three types are required to start.
The main game contains 7 maps of each type, the extra content brings 3 new Earth maps and 3 new Space maps, here’s a list of them:


Once you selected one of each type, press Start, you will now see the Rule Configuration screen.

The rule config is comprised of 3 pages, you can go to the next page with Select, watch out that the B Button will go back to the Map Select!

I will actually try to explain to the best of my abilities, everything:

  • Page 1:
    • COMMAND: The amount of orders you can give to units in a single turn.
    • TURN: The amount of turns in a match.
    • 軍モード (Army Mode): The amount of army organizations that can be selected (explained later).
    • 勝利条件 (Victory Conditions): Switch conditions that defines a victory.
    • PLAYER: Defines up to 4 players if they’re either Human, Computer or None (NOT)
    • 生産モード (Production Mode): It seems to be related to unit production but I haven’t fully understood it I apologize…
  • Page 2:
    • ORGANIZATION: You can select army organizations here per player, I will explain what’s going on about it after this list.
    • CAPITAL: The starting military funds of each player can be defined here.
    • TEC: Unit Production Technology, it can be set between 1 to 20.
  • Page 3:
    • CAPTAIN MS: You can select a Mobile Suit captain… but I don’t understand how it works.
    • SOUND: You can select between Mono (モノラル) and Stereo (ステレオ) here. For some reason, Mono is the default.
    • 補給 (Supply): You can select between Manual (マニュアル) and Auto (オート)
    • BGM: You can select music for a specific player’s turn.
    • CONTROL: You can select a controller for a specific player’s turn.

Press START once you’re done, to start playing.

Now, a word about the Organizations: Army mode in the base game can be either 6 or 12, here’s what can be selected per player:

  • Army Mode 6:
  • Army Mode 12:

When you have the extra content enabled, Army Mode will change to either 7 or 13, here’s the flags available in that case:

  • Army Mode 7:
  • Army Mode 13:

This flag is the new military organization available.

Hopefully this will clear up a lot of things, I also tried to look up differences between the retail Memory Pack release and the Satellaview download release, but I couldn’t find anything really different.

Now here’s the redump from techknight that you can use:

This dump is no different from all of the others except the date.
