The Satellaview hardware worked in tandem with a BS tuner, obtained with a St. GIGA subscription. Games and other data were broadcast in "radio shows" lasting for a set amount of time. The same data was often rebroadcast for several days in a row before it was made unavailable. While most games worked after the initial download without a radio connection, SoundLink games required a constant radio connection. Such games do not work today without modification, as the Satellaview service was shut off in 2000. | The Satellaview hardware worked in tandem with a BS tuner, obtained with a St. GIGA subscription.
