Some Unreleased Kirby Satellaview games have come up for sale in Japan. They are on a Battery backed BS-X cart. https://twitter.com/frankcifaldi This gentleman is looking for donations and says he will dump them. I won't post links to the sale for fear of screwing it up for them (at the moment). https://twitter.com/frankcifaldi/status/795770131800473600
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
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!
http://sellinglist.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/user/nekosakanajp? They are all done now. If anyone has a way to look at a user's completed listings the seller has sold heaps of Satellaview Games and Super Famicom Nintendo Power games.
I found a list of the undumped by the way - there's tons!! I had no idea. http://forums.no-intro.org/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=1491
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.
