Sega Channel

[Allan]

I know I am going back a long ways but I remember having this and playing it for hours on end. Imagine all the games at your hands for only $15 a month.

huh, I never knew this happened. Thanks for mentioning it.

I have to admit I loved it. After awhile though the big cartridge was a little top heavy for the sega and would sometimes lean back.

I heard of Sega Channel, but I was too poor to afford a game console, and $15 a month when I was younger, so I never got a chance to play it. I didn't really get into gaming, and game consoles until my late teens, and early 20s where I have some money for games.

But, I loved the idea of Sega Channel where you pay $15 a month to play many games.

Seems Sony copied this somewhat for PSN (now), too bad I doubt it will be just as fun.

I read a post about a Japanese cable company which let subscribers play many games with their Cablebox. Most games are older console games, and PC games which work with a controller for the cable box.

Well it sounds like a good deal, but I really don't have any systems to play any more games on at the moment. Thank you for mentioning it though, when I go to get me a new system to use I will go and get this service. 
Once again thank you!
