    I forgot Frank blocked me after the GamerGate nonsense.

    I'd be willing to help but ya know...

    Let's hope we get these dumped

    I don't believe these are unreleased, just difficult to find given the distribution/saving method.

    Poor choice of words on my part.They've never been dumped and aren't available any other way.

    Oh hoh hoh please. Satellaview games really tickle my fancy. They are just so obscure and seemingly poorly documented. I only found out about that BS Sim City recently...

    Seems that he crowdfunded (?) and that they won the auction for the first game? So that seems to be good news!

    NO FUNDRAISING. Linking to someone who wants money for something he doesn't have yet is not allowed.

    So they were on the Satellaview service? What other BSX games are undumped?

    Once we have everything, they'll be posted on SNES Central/Eludevisibility/Satellablog.

    Awesome, as a Kirby fan I'm glad to hear that these will be preserved!

    Great news, I had no idea there was much left for the Satellaview to be found by this point.

    I thought @LuigiBlood was the go-to guy for Satelleview things.

    Yeah. Dumped = preserved. Not dumped = hoarding / losing forever in my book. People should take notes and learn from this.

    The annoying thing about Satellaview is dumped sometimes equals "the game half of it minus the streamed media stuff that could be lost to time".
    They're a bite to dump too.

    That is a shame, at least some people recorded the experience, but the truth is for a lot of these we'll never know how they were intended to be. Sucks cause it was such a cool idea for the time.
