“Sega Channel was a project developed by Sega for the Sega Mega Drive video game console. Completely revolutionary at the time of release (bar a failed attempt with the earlier Intellivision console), it was a method capable of streaming digital content to Mega Drive owners through cable television.”

Dude I had sega channel, it was so cool! I believe you could play games all the way through and they grouped them by different genres, and the games changed monthly. They also had contests where you could win prizes. I won a backpack for one! Wish I still had it
That is rad as hell.
I remember when this was out… always sounded kinda cool. That was back in the era of Street Fighter II and Phantasy Star IV.
Very vivid childhood memories of this. You had 1 (total) save slot. So if you booted another game, the previous was deleted.
Played through Shadowrun 4 or 5 times in a row because of that. Sega really was ahead of the curve so many times. Sega Channel, Analog Sticks, KBM+Broadband on DC. (Genesis+CD+32x Stack, lol).
Wonder where they’d be hardware wise if they hadn’t crashed.
Sega channel was the shit. It absolutely was revolutionary and we haven’t seen anything remotely close to it until gamepass. I think we connected through Qwest, which was a telecom company way back before there were only 3 telecom companies. Goddamn those were good days.
