MORE INFO
The Satellaview system was developed and released by Nintendo to receive signals broadcast from satellite TV station WOWOW’s satellite radio subsidiary, St.GIGA. St.GIGA was responsible for file server management, maintenance, and vocalisation for “SoundLink” games. Nintendo data broadcasts were given a fixed time slot known as the Super Famicom Hour during which scrambled Satellaview-related data was streamed via radio waves to be unscrambled by St.GIGA’s “BS digital hi-vision TV”. As a subscription-based station for ambient and New Age music, St.GIGA listeners were already equipped with “BS tuners” prior to St.GIGA’s contract with Nintendo. Satellaview owners who lacked a “BS tuner” had to purchase one separately from St.GIGA at a price of ¥33,000, as well as sign up for Nintendo’s and St.GIGA’s monthly joint membership fees. Alternatively, users could rent “BS tuners” from St.GIGA for a 6-month period at a price of ¥5,400. Even at this premium price, St.GIGA reported subscriptions peaking at 116,378 households by March 1997, and dropping to around 46,000 by June 2001.
