A Satellaview research blog.

Category: Soundlink

“Soundlink” is the term used by St. Giga for a unique combination of a “streamed” game and a “streamed” radio broadcast, playing simultaneously for a combined gameplay experience.

These programs, broadcast in the 7PM hour and -only playable during the broadcast-, were the Satellaview’s biggest selling point – nearly all of the Soundlink titles were exclusive, and have not been ported or rereleased before or since.

BS Super Famicom Wars, recorded poorly by… uh, myself.

I popped BS Super Famicom Wars in SNESGT and played it a bit. From my Youtube description:

“This seems like a sort of little demo in comparison to the NP Version. Before you ask – these are the only characters, settings, and battle map I could select. There’s also a lot of missing polishes compared to the NP Version – I can’t seem to enable Battle and Fort Seizing animations for example.”

I looked into the matter further and, according to the Satellaview History Museum, there were actually 4 volumes of BS Super Famicom Wars released. They likely each had a different map. I’ll be on the lookout for more info.

BS Fire Emblem Script Translation Project.

Due to the absence of dedicated Satellaview translators I’ve decided to do the job I’ve employed myself in!

Serenesforest’s forum shall be taking a look at me trying to translate the scripts for BS Fire Emblem. If anyone wants to volunteer some work on it as well, be my guest. I’m not necessarily the most talented translator, after all.
