More intercontinental Mega Modem testing (with towels over my Genesis to muffle the screeching modem sounds). Still haven't experienced any actual gameplay through this thing, but we did at least connect briefly on Tel Tel Stadium and get to see rad team logos and adorable anime cheerleaders.

We connected for ALMOST a second on Cyberball. Had better luck on Shikinjoh, a game where you share custom levels... until I had to pull the plug, literally, because the modem was screeching too loud for 2:35am. FUN FACT: These games have voice chat! (which won't work over the PC tunnel we're using)

Video from my pal on the other end. Imagine this but 10x louder (despite me desperately trying to push a pillow over the little speaker)

Here's the audio quality you can expect from the Mario Party mic, a device meant for shouting "jump!" and definitely not voice chat (video stolen from Discord). The modder also tried to add support for text chat with the ridiculous GameCube keyboard controller, but alas that only works on emulator.

Realized the Winamp visualizer looks a lot like the backgrounds for some shoot em ups. Then realized you can set the background to any color in Dezaemon, the SNES shoot em up creator on Satellaview, so...

(flashing lights warning)

Made this sprite hack (based on a Shy Guy sprite by skovacs1 alttp.mymm1.com/sprites/?met...) but since I only know how to edit the Girl character, this means the game's gender options for me are now "Boy" and "Jason"

The Satellaview+ Spirit Halloween is back, and this time it's extra spooky. Perhaps... perhaps TOO spooky. It even seems to be affecting the town's residents.
