Re: New poster, getting online

The US NetLink doesn’t use an ISP, generally - the games all utilized direct dialing of another player’s phone number. The only time you needed an ISP was to access websites via the browser.

Re: Looking for an Xband Buddy

My parents still have a land line, and I did try out some Netlink on it probably over a decade ago, but it still was anything but smooth, especially as the other player didn't have a landline of their own.

I never had an XBAND keyboard, but I do have the PS/2 adapter for the Saturn's Netlink.

Re: Looking for an Xband Buddy

I'm still here. I didn't really know about Xband until after its demise, though, and I can't say I know much about football, either. It definitely would have been cool at the time. Anyone still online with this. I’m up for some MK2 on Genesis. Do you have your Xband working and sending/receiving Xm...

Re: New Netlink user here! (New York)

I'll have to dig mine out of boxes! Unfortunately, someone parked a giant artificial Christmas tree in front of my stuff, so it's really difficult to get to!

Nice to meet you, retrospectors!

Glitch? The site *was* down for a few days a few weeks ago, I noticed. I wonder if there *was* some kind of attack and it was shut down temporarily as a result.
