This store brochure touts the benefits of the NetLink. I read this brochure time and time again before I decided to buy one.

I'm not sure where this card came from, probably was packed in with a game.

:shock: That Saturn keyboard is sexy as hell!!!

I have the Saturn mouse and the PC keyboard adapter but looks like i'm gonna have to hunt down the Saturn Keyboard as well.

Never knew that they existed. Thanks for the scans.

Nice topic!

I've got some magazines merchandising and was planning in open a topic like this, or post them on the users screenshots.

The Keyboard is bundled with the Saturn. It shows up often in eBay.
I never saw it being sold separately, maybe someone want to get rid of it...
But generally you'll have to get the whole package. That's not a bad thing at all.

Thanks, scooter. Feels good to see old NetLink materials like this one. Rogue, your more than welcome to upload those pics to the user section, and Scooter, you can put those in there too if you'd like, that's what it's for!

Still remeber being a punk kid in junior high and drooling over stuff like this. There was something about gaming in the '90s ... a magic or feeling that I've never felt since.

Wow, thanks for the memories!

Yeah, there was so much undiscovered ground back then. Now, it's all about nostalgia on the newer consoles, with most games sequels or remakes and the virtual console market so big.

Love that color Daytona cover too, that's probably what segadreamcaster was referring to when he thought he saw a color cover for the game.

Okay, now sell me Daytona NetLink, dreamcaster. :D

lol...you got no chance, especially as I now have a case and cover for it :)

As for the cover....that's more or less what I saw yeah, but it was an actual cover on ebay....starting to think that it must have been one that they made themselves...it's the only explanation I can think of

There hasn't been a Daytona NetLink on eBay in nearly a year now. I can't believe that.
